Turban: The Middle Eastern Craze

 Turbans are usually worn by men, no? Well, Prada's '07 show had several models walking down the runway emphasizing the female empowerment!
The silk turban is a modern twist by Prada to show that the Middle Eastern adornment can be not only religious and cultural, but cool.
Recently, we first saw turbans coming down the '07 runway at Prada, then the trend didn't really take off, but is it back now? We saw celebrities such as iconic Sarah Jessica Parker and the legendary Kate Moss sporting a turban and saw some semi-turbans (open top) on fashion-forward Ashley Olsen.
 I really wanted to wear a silk turban the moment I saw it. You may need long silky hair to pull this look off.
Unfortunately, a turban would cover my entire hair :(
Can only fashion icons pull this look off?


 SJP pulling off the turban look in SATC movie II, but she's in Abu freakin' Dhabi!!!!                                                        Ashley looks so rock-chic in black satin semi turban!
The black Givenchy bag and her cut-offs paired with plain black top make the turban look so damn cool!

  1. So diva-look. I prefer Ashley Olsen's interpretation, easier to wear on the streets and breezly young. Like your blog, ciao!
