Cowl Neckline
Posted on December 1st, 2008 by farida
A neckline featuring a piece of material attached to a garment at the neck, which may be used as a hood or draped loosely in a swag from shoulder to shoulder at the front neckline or back.
A Cowl Neckline top is similar to a turtleneck. The main difference is the neckline has much more material making it hang in a scooping fashion on the chest. It is commonly seen on sweaters, camisoles, dresses, and even some wedding gowns. There is no set size for a cowl neckline. It can be quite small and just gather neatly right near your neck or it can have lots of extra material and hang quite low on the chest. Either way, it’s usually quite flattering.
