02 Oct 2015 Beaded Tie n Dye Cotton Scarves

Fashion scarves serve multiple purposes with any outfit. Although they protect against the elements during winter weather, scarves designed primarily for aesthetic reasons are just as divine. If you want to cover up a part of your outfit or body that you aren’t in love with, wear a scarf around your neck.

Hand Tie-Dyed Cotton Scarf, Fair Trade

When shopping for fashion scarves, try picking up beaded tie and dye cotton shibori scarves. Shibori, meaning to wring, to squeeze and to press, is an ancient Japanese art of shaping cloth to create patterns and textures. This age old Japanese dyeing technique dates back to the eighth century and was traditionally used for kimono. Plain fabric is dyed in a base color, and then the cloth is folded and bound with thread. The fabric is then dyed in a second color, before the bindings are removed to reveal the finished design. Each handmade and hand-dyed shibori scarf is unique and takes months to produce.
