Multipurpose, The fashion trick of Bandana

Have you ever thought that you only need a small scarf at a party to become the focus of the people? But don’t think it’s a small handkerchief, because it is fundamentally different from the handkerchief you used to wipe your nose when you were a kid! It has a proper name-“Bandana”.

But in fact, the early bandana had nothing to do with fashion. It was only used as an outdoor laborer to cover the mouth and nose, or to prevent sweat from entering the eyes during exercise. About to the beginning of the twentieth century, it was slowly integrated into daily wear, and classic totem elements such as paisley pattern were sought after by rock singers and street culture, and gained a foothold in the fashion industry. https://www.heddels.com/2017/05/the-history-of-the-bandana/
