The history of the scarf dates back at least as far as ancient Rome. Women used scarves as headgear but it has emerged as a fashion statement through the time.

Scarves have fashion statement lately, as it was forgotten for long time. Now these scarves can be tied around neck, waist etc. These scarves are made in different fabric and diverse colours, which makes it more attractive. Knitting and weaving techniques are developing all the time to cope with the increasing demands of the world's fashion designers.

In a nutshell, scarves are a charming gift option and quite 'out-of-box' too. But one must be sure that the receiver is a frequent or at least an occasional user of scarves, for the gift to be worthy.
