Sarongs and Pareos

Sarongs and Pareos are used from Rio de Janeiro to Malibu, from Honolulu to Cannes - this fashion accessory is known world-wide.
Worn every day by men and women all over the South Pacific, Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Also known as wraparound, pareo, pareau, pakome (Thailand), lava-lava (Samoa), kain (Indonesia), sulu (Fiji), canga (Brazil), malo (Tonga), lunghi, etc, the fabric itself is often a work of art.
A sarong can be used as a beach wrap , a wraparound skirt, a summer cover-up, a shawl, a wall hanging, a tablecloth, a bedcover, and to make shirts, dresses and skirts.
Our sarongs, pareos, sun dresses and bikini cover-ups are made of terivoile, which is frequently mistaken for silk. Colors are vivid and patterns are unique and absolutely gorgeous. Terivoile is easy to wash, quick to dry and doesn't shrink, run or fade. The fabric is versatile, finished in several different ways, including opaque, sheer, and crushed satin. Styles are solid-colored, patterned or gradient, transitioning from one color to another or through different shades of the same color. Individual pieces may be beaded, embroidered, or even embossed.

Full Size Pareo ($18.75)

Pareos, sometimes called sarongs, are large rectangles of fabric with fringed ends that can be worn in many different ways; as a simple scarf or shawl, as a dress, as a bathing suit cover-up, as a risqué semi-transparent wrap. They can be casually elegant or elegantly casual. With a size of about 40" by 70", many people use pareos as tablecloths, window coverings or for other applications. If you come up with a unique way to use your pareo, please let us know!
