Formal Shawls

FORMAL OCCASIONS:

  • A formal shawl or stole can transform all formal wear whether it’s a simple black cocktail dress, or a bridesmaid’s dress, or that special prom dress.
  • Elizabetta carries a striking selection of formal shawls and stoles that are perfect to accent a dress for those formal occasions.
  • Often formal dresses are sleeveless and what could be more beautifully practical than wrapping a stunning silk or cashmere stole over your shoulders, keeping off the chill.
  • To transform that classic black cocktail dress you love, wear a fabulous pair of earrings and an elegant formal shawl, either in black and white or bright colors. Go one step further and wear shoes that match the shawl!

Wedding Ideas

Bridesmaids’ dresses can be made to look even more special by the addition of a stole. They also make perfect gifts for the bridesmaids.

A wedding trend in some areas is to have the bridesmaids wear their own black dresses. Add a matching formal silk stole from Elizabetta to each one, and the wedding party is coordinated!

More Ideas

Formal shawls and stoles can be secured with a jewelry broach or pin. This not only adds a decorative element to the wrap, but also is practical because the stole stays around your shoulders while you move about! Any dress with a simple neckline can be worn with a silk chiffon long scarf wrapped loosely around the neck, the ends flowing, or worn as a shawl. This is a particularly nice look in the warmer months, adding a touch of femininity and romance. Prom dresses are most elegant with a shawl. Here in the Midwest prom time is often cool. What better way to stay warm and look like a princess than with a pashmina shawl. Or in warmer climes, add a silk shawl. Remember your formal Elizabetta stole is made from natural fabrics and has timeless styling; if cared for properly, it will last a lifetime.
