How To Use A Sarong

Here is an example of how to Tie Your Sarong in a “Long Skirt”

* Wrap the sarong around your body (waist, hips, chest)

* Grab two corners of the sarong and create a “tie” by pulling the ends vertically, then knot the tie and pull the ends horizontally (knot again to secure).

* Fluff out the tie to make sure that the right side of the fabric shows and that the knot looks good.

* The tie can be at the front, back, or side (ends may be tucked underneath).

Adjusting The Length

* After you tie the sarong you may select to pin the gap or you may Choose to leave it

* You may wear the sarong over a simple plain tank dress to create a beautiful “chic” look.

Wear your sarong as a Dress or Top:

* Wrap the sarong above chest and tie. You may wear this style with a gap open over swimwear or as light evening wear. (Use a couple safety pins to secure). To shorten into a top, simply adjust the length by folding down before tieing. Create a bandeau style top by folding the sarong into a 5″ to 7″ wide strip and wrap around the chest and tie in front or back. Knot and tuck the tie underneath the bandeau.

Wear your Sarong as a Headband or Hatband:

* Fold the sarong into a thin 3″ wide strip and wrap around a hat or head-wear and tie.
* Wear your Sarong as a Scarf or Schawl:
* You only need to drape over your shoulder/neck and go!
* Use your Sarong as a Wall Hanging or Tablecloth:
* Hang your sarong on the wall (looks great framed) or drape over an end-table for a great decorator look or use as tablecloths for that special occasion.
