Since the 16th century, hand muffs have been a

womenswear winter fashion accessory.

These hand-warmers were cylindrical shaped,

opened at both ends and made of luxury fur or fabric-

decidedly a dress trend of the wealthy (and royalty!).

Throughout the 17th and 18th centuries they were worn

by women and men alike.

However by the 20th century, hand-muffs had evolved into

a mostly women focused accessory.

During the chilly season of a/w  2014,

allow gloves and mitts to ‘fashion-hibernate.

Revive the hand muff as signature winter warmer wear

for keeping frosty fingers toasty warm.

And why limit muff-wear to hand cover?  Alternate use of a woolen scarf with a

faux fur ‘body muff’ for added warmth and style factor.
