    I would tie it just like that and have a little keyhole effect going on. I think those are sexy. But you could tied it more like an ascot, tuck the end in too.

    I think this is late 40s - early 50s... what kind of fabric?

    It feels like a stiff cotton, or cotton blend to me? Slight sheen to it
