A scarf can range from a few dollars to a thousand dollars. Many a times you are cheated when you are selecting a signature scarf. Here are a few tips to decide between a fake shawl and a true signature shawl.

1. Fabric
Natural fabrics look much gorgeous than the synthetic ones. There is something about them that makes them look elegant and rich. Apart from this they are soft, and a pleasure to wear. A pure silk scarf is the best, it keeps you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Cashmere is the ultimate fabric that is extremely soft on the skin. Pashmina shawls and Jamawar Shawls equally add a glamour quotient to your outfit. Besides, colours look more vibrant on a natural fabric.

2. Design
A good design is the gem in a scarf. It takes plenty of hours and the skills of many talented and professional scarf designers to make a designer shawl. However, a designer name on the scarf does not make a difference at all. The true ...
... creativity lies is in the artistic make and the tiny details of a pattern. An exquisite scarf is suppose to showcase the brand's creativity and not imitate the designs of others.

3. Price
An expensive scarf or a designer scarf is not a sign of a luxury scarf, but an extremely inexpensive scarf is definitely not a sign of a luxury scarf either. Remember this, it takes hours to design an scarf with an original design and manufacture it.

4. Colors
A scarf with more colours becomes more difficult it becomes to create and expensive to produce. A beauty of the scarf comes from its design as well as colors. If you are paying an exorbitant price for a plain scarf, it is obvious that you are being cheated. It is a different case if you are willing to pay for a plain scarf just because it is a designer scarf. In that case, you are only paying for the name and not scarf itself.

5. Aesthetics
When you buy a scarf, you will naturally expect a nice box with a ribbon instead of a cheap plastic bag. The aesthetics should be there. A scarf lover might be disappointed.

6. Finishing
The look and feel of the finishing can make a hell lot of a difference while buying a scarf. For example, there is a big difference between a machine made or hand rolled hem of a silk scarf. A hand rolled hem is a hours work, giving it a soft finish for a scarf edge, whereas the one with a machine hem is flat and not very flattering. The scarf label is another detail. If it is stitched, it can be removed, if sewn to the hem, it may not.

I hope these few points guide you on your scarf shopping spree.
