Turban Chic: Katherine Dunham, June Ambrose

After decades of being relegated to the vaults of fashion history, the turban has returned in a big way. Dancer/Choreographer Katherine Dunham invigorated her own unique style into American Dance theater and her personal style.  Above she sets off a pastel turban with bold earrings.

Today, stylist June Ambrose wears a turban in bold print with demure earrings and a bold, red lipstick.  Ambrose has taken the turban from Hollywood glamour to every day chic.  And in true stylist fashion, Ambrose doesn’t keep her fashion know-how to herself. For more on Turban Chic, style and fashion you can connect with Ambrose on Twitter @JuneAmbrose.
