Difference between scarf and stole

March 3, 2010 by sujata


A scarf is a piece of fabric, long and short, that can be draped at different positions and in different ways at the neck or head. Some innovative ways to wear versatile scarves include draping at the waist or wrist for a haute and chic look. A scarf is typically worn for reasons like mannerism, cleanliness and also for warmth at cooler regions.

 

Stoles are bigger scarves. They are on the same lines as of a scarf.


Difference between scarf and stole


As clothing item, both; scarf and stole are usually used as an accessory to complement an outfit and reflects a high fashion statement. They also come under the protective line of clothing as they offer warmth and protection under the sun, wind, heat, dust, etc.

There are different parameters in which we can define, describe and differentiate between the two clothing items that are generally based on the same concept to serve almost the same purpose yet stand apart from each other.
