FAQs about Shawls, Stoles & Dupattas

A dupatta is a traditional, longer and wider draped fabric worn mostlly with Indian outfits, often for modesty and style. A stole is shorter, more versatile fabric, which is typically used as a fashion accessory across both ethnic and western wear.

A dupatta symbolizes grace, tradition, and cultural identity in Indian attire. Often seen as a mark of modesty and elegance, it also reflects regional craftsmanship through its weaves, prints, and embroidery.

Silk, organza, and chanderi are the best fabrics for a khada dupatta due to their rich texture, graceful fall, and ability to hold shape. These fabrics add elegance and structure, making them perfect for traditional and festive wear.

A scarf is a versatile, lightweight accessory used for style or modesty, while a muffler is typically thicker and worn for warmth in colder weather. Scarves come in various shapes and fabrics, whereas mufflers are usually woolen and rectangular.

There are many ways to style a stole with your outfit. You can drape it around your neck, wrap it like a scarf, or wear it over the shoulders for a chic, layered look. These add elegance to both ethnic and western outfits and are perfect for all seasons.

Pashmina is considered to be the best quality shawl today, known for its ultra-soft texture, warmth, and luxurious feel. Handwoven from fine Himalayan goat wool, authentic Pashmina shawls are lightweight, durable, and highly valued worldwide.

A pure Pashmina shawl feels feather-light, luxuriously soft, and warm to touch. You should try looking for fine handwoven details and slight irregularities in the weave. You can also try doing the ring test—authentic Pashmina easily passes through a ring due to its ultra-fine weave.

Shawls, Stoles & Dupattas | Indian Handloom

Across centuries and cultures, a single piece of cloth, draped just right, has had the power to transform not only an outfit, but also a presence. In Indian fashion, stoles, dupattas, and shawls are more than just garments; they are expressions of identity, elegance, and artistry. These timeless accessories serve a variety of purposes, be it by offering warmth, adding layers of grace, or simply completing a look.

Shawl: A shawl is typically a large piece of fabric, often rectangular, that can be draped over the shoulders or wrapped around the body. While shawls can be made from various materials, they are often associated with wool.

Stole: A stole is generally a narrower piece of fabric. It is often worn draped around the neck or shoulders and can be made from lighter materials, making it suitable for more formal occasions or as a fashion accessory. Stoles can also feature decorative embellishments or patterns.

Dupatta: A dupatta is a long, rectangular garment traditionally worn with Indian and South Asian attire, particularly with suits and lehengas. It is usually made from lightweight fabrics like silk, georgette, or cotton, serving both decorative and practical purposes.

Worn by women and men alike, styled in countless ways, from casual wraps to statement drapes, each of these accessories continue to remain integral to wardrobes across India and beyond.
