The 70s was a period for groovy scarves and head wraps. Women during that time would never be seen without fashion silk scarves in loud colors. After all, 1970s was the time for anarchy! It was a time when disco was in fashion and women were wearing maxi dresses, micro minis and midi skirts.
The hippie movement was dying and the first few years of the 70s still had tie dye shirts, scarves and faded jeans. However, gradually the fashion trend changed to a peasant look and women were seeing sporting skirts of different lengths and off shoulder tops or tank tops. The silk scarf came in play here were women would delicately tie them around the shoulders. However, fashion silk scarves were mostly used as head wraps like the Russian village women did.
