A tippet is a piece of clothing worn over the shoulders in the shape of a scarf or cape. Tippets evolved in the fourteenth century from long sleeves and typically had one end hanging down to the knees. A tippet (or tappit) could also be the long, narrow, streamer-like strips of fabric - attached with an armband just above the elbow - that hung gracefully to the knee or even to the ground.[1] In later fashion, a tippet is often any scarf-like wrap, usually made of fur, such as the sixteenth-century zibellino[2] or the fur-lined capelets worn in the mid-18th century.
