Turban hat

An original headpiece is often the dominant feature of a stylish wardrobe. An elegant and feminine turban hat, which has been popular with fashionistas for several seasons, will perfectly cope with this role.

Turban is a traditional headdress for men in many eastern countries.

Each nationality is characterized by a certain color scheme, the size and material of the turban, and the options for tying it are also different. Even within one country, this headdress is not the same - it denotes a person's social affiliation. So, according to tradition, Muslims wear a white turban, but anyone who has ever visited Mecca or belongs to the family of the great prophet has the right to tie a headdress of green or black color.

Researchers of oriental life and culture have found that there are at least a thousand options for wearing a turban. It is interesting that in the Middle Ages it was customary to hide a tulip in its folds - a flower, according to legend, bringing good luck.

Of course, over many centuries, some types of oriental costume have lost their former relevance. So, today the turban perfectly complements a strict business suit - Arab political leaders wear it when traveling abroad, as well as when meeting within their country.

This headdress is often mistakenly identified with a turban. However, in a turban, unlike him, the lower edge is not straight. And besides, it is much smaller in size.

From the East, this accessory came into European fashion. Throughout the 20th century, he appeared and disappeared from the stylish wardrobe. For example, post-war women began to wear turbans, wanting to dilute their lives with an element of luxury.

In recent years, this accessory is back in fashion and is not going to give up its leadership positions. And for the convenience of fashionistas, a hat was invented, externally copying the shape of a turban - there is no need to waste time tying it. This headdress can be worn in all seasons; it is very popular even in warm weather.

Speaking about the features of this headdress, which favorably distinguishes it from other options, we note the unique oriental style (after all, most modern hats are somewhat similar to each other). In addition, the turban has varieties: you can put on a ready-made hat or bandage on your head, or effectively wind a long scarf or scarf.

NSThis accessory is also beneficial in that it is appropriate with many types of outerwear. It is practical - it will hide an unsuccessful hairstyle or lack of styling. The turban is suitable for women of all ages: it will decorate both a young girl and a respectable lady of elegant age.

Modern women's turban is made of fabric or yarn. As for the fabric options, the favorites are models made from natural raw materials - cotton and knitwear. Soft and light cotton models are ideal for summer and early autumn, while knitted ones are denser and warmer.

Any woman can make a turban from a cotton or knitted scarf. It's easier to do this from a light texture material. You need to cover your head with a scarf, placing its ends at the back. The ends are tied in a knot, twisted separately and fixed in front over the forehead. It remains only to decorate a beautiful knot, you can decorate it with a brooch or beads.

Turban-shaped knitted hats are distinguished by a variety of yarns. Wool products are most in demand. The option from fluffy mohair looks stylish and romantic. Often, acrylic additives will be included in woolen things, there are also completely synthetic options (polyester), which, in principle, look no less neat and beautiful. In addition, things with the addition of synthetics are unpretentious to care for, more wearable.

As for the pattern of knitted hats in the form of a turban, the following techniques are popular: regular hosiery, pearl pattern (or "rice"), English, French, embossed elastic, 2x2 bulky elastic. Such hats are knitted with embossed braids, voluminous braiding. Elements of an openwork pattern look exquisite.

Like any stylish accessory, the turban hat changes with each new season. These innovations concern style, colors, materials and decorative elements. This season, strict forms are in trend - the turban is more miniature, differs in the minimum number of lines. Shawls fade into the background, giving way directly to hats and headbands.

In vogue saturated shades (for example, purple or fuchsia), you should choose the right option for yourself based on your own color type. However, the timeless classics - black and white - are still in trend and will suit many fashionistas. Also for an updated softer look, gray is perfect. The trendy wine shade (which suits almost everyone) is among the favorites, it is beautiful in itself, as well as in combination with other tones. It is not the first year that emerald has been popular. The knitted turban will also be adorned with various shades of pink, beige and peach. The basic sand color is able to adapt to any woman's wardrobe.

Decor plays an important role in a modern headdress; it is especially relevant for an evening look. A classic decoration is a massive brooch, smooth or with a scattering of stones. The fashionable turban today is also decorated over the entire surface with sequins or beads. A mesh veil on the headdress will add mystery and piquancy to the lady - an excellent evening option. However, it should be borne in mind that when choosing a turban with decor, you do not need to wear other catchy jewelry, since this is already a self-sufficient detail that attracts attention.

Important Tips:

1. Ladies with oval-shaped faces and high foreheads are the luckiest ones - they can choose any model they want. One has only to avoid too high options that can visually lengthen the face.
2. If your face is elongated and narrow, a long cut will not work. Your goal is to visually equalize the proportions, so get a low turban, reaching up to the eyebrows, with many horizontal lines.
3. Chubby young ladies, on the other hand, need to draw out an oval - an elongated model without an abundance of folds will do.
4. A soft draped fabric can divert attention from a square face; try a voluminous cut without multiple decor.
5. A triangular face will brighten up almost any style of a turban. You can experiment with the decor: a large brooch will add fragility to the features, and a mesh veil will add mystery.
