Boa

 Boa - a long scarf made of feathers or fur. The name comes from the name of the accessory snake family boas. Boa fully consistent with the title - it was quite narrow and very long. Scarf came into vogue in the XIX century and was originally intended exclusively for married women aged. In everyday life stoles sometimes called "tails". They were worn with outerwear as a removable fur trim or complement their evening dresses. The second surge of fashion boa came in 20th years of XX century - long fur and feather scarves perfectly in harmony with the era of the Charleston dresses. Today boa is predominantly made from feathers - they are part of pop style burlesque costumes.
