Satin , because of its high lustre, makes smart tailored hats. The body of good satin drapes well. Street shades are best. Satin ribbon in street and dressier shades is well adapted for turbans. Because of the finished edges it is easily handled in combination with other materials.
Tinsel cloths make handsome harem turbans for dressy afternoon and evening wear for winter.
Colors are good and the fabric well adapted for loosely folded drapes. Brocades make good dress turbans for evening and formal afternoon wear. The colors and fabrics are lovely in contrast to the dark tones of fur wraps. Straw cloth makes stylish turbans in combination with cellophane or jet for early spring. A fabric headsize binding is usually necessary.
