Shawls and Pashminas
Shawls and Pashminas
Ladies pashminas originate from Persia and date back to the early 19th century, usually made with a square or rectangle piece of cloth that is folded into a triangle and then draped over the shoulders. Nowadays ladies shawls are found in all countries as they provide warmth during cooler evenings; especially important if you have your shoulders exposed or are particularly sensitive to the cold!
Due to cultural inspiration you’ll find hundreds of different printed and patterned pashminas for example if you were to buy a pashmina from Scotland then it is likely to have a plaid tartan design. The most popular styles feature floral and paisley arrangements and there's many which are based on the traditional Arabic patterned ladies pashminas. We stock a wide selection of women’s scarves that all differ in appearance, whether it is a straight clean edge to a rough frayed edge, rectangular or squared cut we have tried to accommodate for all trends and outfits.
Women’s pashminas could be worn all year round, whether it is to accessorise a winter outfit and cut out the cold or to wrap around your body when wearing a bikini on holiday. Each ladies pashmina we sell on our website is published with a short description of the product with tips on how and where to wear it. A plain coloured shawl would work very well in a more formal situation compared with a hounds tooth print which would be ideal for a festival or holiday outfit.
