WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SHAWLS, SCARFS, STOLES AND WRAPS?
Shawls, Scarf, Stoles and Wraps these terms are frequently used interchangeably with a fair amount of confusion. All four represents a finished piece of fabric that is wrapped around the neck and shoulders and at times over the head; frequently upper body. There is a subtle difference between these four terms.
Shawls: Shawl is an apparel piece that is a simple fabric loosely worn over the shoulders by both men and women. It is a soft, long cloth that is mostly rectangular. Shawls in diverse cultures have traditionally been worn for comfort and warmth though today they are worn mostly for fashion purposes. A shawl can be merely embellishing, used to emphasize an outfit, used for prayer or can be made of wool or another warm fabric to keep the chill-out. The standard size of a woman’s shawl is 40 x 80 inches or 100 x 200 cm. We at Savita Exports has a beautiful collection of Shawls at best wholesale prices.
Stoles: The word stole is derived from the Roman word ‘stola’ which is a woman’s version of toga, a roman garment. Stoles are very comparable to shawls. The title stole today is ordinarily applied to specify a formal or evening shawl, made of beautiful fabric, often not as wide as a shawl, but long enough to drape around the body.
