Description
Hand Painted Fashion Scarf is extremely soft and flowing
and can go well with western as well as oriental
dresses. It remains a favorite with women of all ages.
Indian silk scarves are often long and narrow, usually
worn on or near the head, for warmth, fashion,
cleanliness, or religious purposes. In dry, dusty
climates, or in environments where there is a lot of
airborne contaminants, a thin scarf is often worn over
the head to keep the hair clean. Over time, this custom
has evolved into a fashionable item in many cultures,
particularly among women. Scarves in India have a
significant place and traditional value. They are
significant because they are considered a protector of
women's integrity. Women's outfit in India is considered
incomplete without a long
Silk Hair Scarf. The fabric of scarves
can be cotton, chiffon, georgette, silk, net or
sometimes mixed too. These are integral parts of the salwar kurta, lehenga, and churidar. With cultural
exposure from Europe, these scarves found their way to
the western wardrobes too.
Our Customers' Views
* Item arrived early, and was in excellent condition.
* The item was shipped and arrived within days. The fabric is
beautiful and the item appears well made... however... it's too
small. I wear a 16 or an 18 and ordered a larger size thinking
that it might run small... and it did. I would guess that this
2X is actually a size 12 or 14.
* My beautiful shawl arrived in great condition and ahead of
schedule.
Sari
A sari / saree is the traditional female garment in
India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka. A sari
is a very long strip of unstitched cloth, ranging from
four to nine metres in length, which can be draped in
various styles. The most common style is for the sari to
be wrapped around the waist, with one end then draped
over the shoulder baring the midriff. The sari is
usually worn over a petticoat (pavada/pavadai in the
south, and shaya in eastern India), with a blouse known
as a choli or ravika forming the upper garment. The
choli has short sleeves and a low neck and is usually
cropped, and as such is particularly well-suited for
wear in the sultry South Asian summers. Cholis may be
"backless" or of a halter neck style. These are usually
more dressy with a lot of embellishments such as mirrors
or embroidery and may be worn on special occasions. Women
in the armed forces, when wearing a sari uniform, don a
half-sleeve shirt tucked in at the waist.
Salwar kameez and dupatta
The salwar kameez is another form of popular dress for
females. It consists of loose trousers (the salwar)
topped by a long loose shirt (the kameez). It originates
from the state of Punjab in India, but now has become
popular all across India, and other South Asian
countries. It is commonly worn with a narrow scarf
called a dupatta, which can be used to cover the head,
or just draped over the shoulders. The salwar kameez is
most common in the northwestern part of India.
Lehenga, choli, and odhani
The women of Rajasthan and Gujarat often wear colorful
swirling skirts called lehenga, paired with a short
bodice called a choli. If they must cover their heads,
they do so with bright veils called odhani.
