What is a "fringe"?
A fringe is a decorative trim consisting of a series of hanging threads or strands that are typically attached to the edge of a garment, accessory, or piece of furniture. Fringe can be made from a variety of materials, including silk, wool, cotton, and leather, and can be long or short, straight or curved, and sparse or dense depending on the desired effect. Fringe can add texture, movement, and visual interest to an otherwise plain or simple design and has been used in fashion and interior design for centuries.
