The carousel of fashion seems to be spinning faster this season with the return of turbans. Brought back to the mainstream in SS07 by Prada, we now see it manifest itself again this Spring. Style it in a 1940s retro look as seen in the new Urban Outfitters‘ catalogue or try for a 1970s peasant look by using a Russian inspired printed scarf. If you can’t bring yourself to wear one in public, then parade around the house in the ultimate turban of choice – the towel.
