Turbans and head wraps have been popping up on the fashion radar all over the place. They have been seen as signature pieces on fashion show runways and as bold accessories on the red carpet. I think it’s safe to say that turbans are the hot hair trend of the season. This fashion headgear turns heads wherever it goes.
Turbans are the perfect accessory for any outfit. There are hundreds of ways to wear it. They can be as overstated or as understated as the wearer wants it to be. You can wear it like the celebrities do. You can channel your inner India.Arie with a silk turban like the one she wore to the 2011 Grammy Awards show.
You may opt to rock a bold African print turban like Solange Knowles. You can wear your turban into a fashionable little hat, in classic Elizabeth Taylor style. Men can choose to follow Johnny Depp’s lead with a slouchy indie-style turban.

You remember how, in the cold of the winter, you invested in scarves in all kinds of prints and bold patterns? Now that it’s springtime, you can simply change your scarf into a turban with a only a little wrapping and tucking!
