Hayek Turns Us On To The Turban
Some fashion folk believe that this is the second coming of the turban, while others think the trend never died.
No
matter what the experts say, the turban is doing the talking for
itself. Salma Hayek was spotted sporting a black and silver turban at Paris Fashion Week - and we've got to admit that we actually kind of
dug it.
There is something so regal, so strong about a head so beautifully adorned!
And, going back to the experts, sartorial historian Caroline Rennolds Milbank, would agree:
"From
way back, turbans signified a woman who was very educated and worldly.
If you look back at the portrayal of women in films like 1,001 Nights, Lawrence of Arabia or even the television show I Dream of Jeannie,
the West depicted those women very sexually with sheer fabrics and an
exposed midriff. Going back to the turban is a return to the allure and
sexiness of a foreign culture."
Would you rock this look?
