Shawls are winter staples that stay relevant in the fashion world. They can be used as an accessory to dress up or dress down depending on the occasion. However, most people don’t drape shawl the right way. In our DIY style series, we have listed down ways to style a shawl in ways that create a statement.

4 Ways To Style Your Shawl

Here are the ways to style a shawl in different ways:

Classic Drape Style

If you are styling a saree or suit, then you can choose this classic drape style for a statement look. To get this style right, hold the shawl from behind covering your both shoulders. Allow the ends of the shawl to hang evenly on both sides covering your arms and upper body. You can even hold it across your arms or you can let the ends free.

One Shoulder Toss Style

This is one of the statement styles you can create with ethnic wear. For this, hold the shawl behind you and both ends in your hand. Take one end of the shawl across your body and toss it over one shoulder, allowing it to drape elegantly. Adjust the shawl to ensure it hangs smoothly over your shoulder and your back.

Belted Shawl Style

For a professional setup, you can choose a belted shawl style. Hold your shawl behind with both ends free. Now wrap the shawl around your back and bring the ends in front. Take a waist belt and secure the shawl at your waist, cinching it to create a defined silhouette. You can drape such a shawl style with sweaters and long winter dresses. A broad belt or waist belt that complements the shawl is preferred for this look.

Brooch Pinning Style

To get this style, start by draping your shawl over your shoulder like a classic drape. Then take a brooch that matches your shawl or your outfit. Pin this brooch near your collarbone or at the centre of your shawl to secure it. This style is perfect for ethnic wear such as sarees and suits.
