| Fox pelts became very fashionable among women. During the 1920s, silver fox was prized as an item of high fashion. One of the earliest fox fashions worn was a single-pelt scarf. The scarf fastened to one shoulder by a small spring clip set. It allowed the full length of the pelt to flow down its wearer's back, obscuring none of its beauty. Prices for the single-pelt scarf ranged anywhere from $350.00 to $1000.00. | | Next>>> | | Previous<<< |
