1940s Turban - Red - model shot

Produced in our signature heavy crepe to pair with many garments in our range - this 1940s inspired turban has been based on an original vintage pattern and adapted for modern manufacturing.

The turban styles were popular in the 1940s when headwear was 'de rigeur' and gives the wearer a few days of hair style rest. Padded rose/twist at the front is a nice size for daywear - not too large or weighty. Turban is shaped to cover the head and has a line of gathers at the back with a strip of integrated elastic at the back for security of fit.

Turban is a snug fit and not especially good for covering bulky curlers - accurate measurements are difficult to give but outer edge of turban measures 21.5" Ā with an additional 1.5" of stretch in the fabric.

Created in our red heavy crepe - specifically to match: 1940s Grable, Betty, whirlaway skirts etc

Made in EU

Nice surprise

I added this to my order to get free shipping and I was pleasantly surprised with the item. Great quality, can wear it with my hair down or hide it all inside. The Berry colorway matches perfectly with the Wine Swing Trousers even though the name of the color is different!

Quality turban

I love this turban. For those of us unable to manage a vintage hairstyle this provides an authentic 1940’s look. I also have it in the mustard colour. Great quality, stays in place and washes well.

Great colour and fit

Bought the turban as an alternative look. It’s a lovely colour and a great fit. It has added that extra authenticity to my look.

40s staple item

I have this in blue and get a lot of complements when I wear it. Great to add a 1940s twist to an outfit. It was a snug fit at first but stretched to fit my head. I’m currently wearing with a 1940s blouse and shorts and brogues but would go equally well with the 40s skirts or dresses. I would like to get more colours.
