A dupatta is a traditional headscarf (usually worn over the shoulders), within Asian cultures including India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Dupatta is a combination of two Sanskrit words which means two or double (du) and (patta), which means piece of clothing. The earliest remembrance can be dated back to the Indus Valley civilization when they were worn by both men and women. Males mostly wore their scarves to symbolize royalty and were mainly used to cover the upper body area. An all-over white outfit with linen-style pants and a long tunic is the ideal relaxed look and can be paired with a blue dupatta that has geometric prints and patterns. If the overall look is more casual, the dupatta can be worn by wrapping the fabric around the neck once, allowing it to drape open, and adding a waist belt. A dress that has a sweetheart or square neckline and a ruffle hem pairs well with flat slippers and chandelier earrings.
