Sash

Sash
SASH (Cinture, French)
Originally a strip of fine silk, gauze or linen, worn round the head as a turban, but now a broad ribbon worn across the breast or around the waist by ladies and young children, and sometimes as part of the insignia of office. Girdles of silk occur as early as the 14th century, and in the 16th century it is mentioned " mantles of crimosyn satten, worn bandericke- or sash-wise, so that the other garments might make a more splendid appearance." " Bandericke-wise " means over the shoulders.
