Tudung bawal or voile scarf is very popular in Malaysia. There are several types of voile fabric use to make tudung bawal or voile scarf with various designs from simple embroidery to meticuluos handwork embroidery and also fixed with some glistening rhinestones.
Bawal no. 1 | Bawal Jepun | Bawal Asli | Bawal Kelantan
Some people call it bawal no. 1, some call it bawal jepun, bawal asli or bawal kelantan. It is actually referring to the same voile material from Japan or Japanese voile. It might not be 100% exactly the same since there are several factories in Japan producing the same kind of 2 by 2 full voile fabric. There are millions of possible colours right ? And you need to match your voile scarf with your clothing. Each factory have their own set of colours.. so as long as the voile is from Japan, it is the no. 1 voile. They all produce fine quality voile.
Bawal no. 2 | Bawal Korea
Bawal no. 2 refers to Korean made voile. It is rather 'thicker' than bawal no. 1 or Japan grade voile... and normally preferable by those who wears bigger size scarf. Korean voile is cheaper than Japanese voile.
Bawal kilang baru | Bawal China Gred A
Bawal kilang baru refers to China made voile of quite good grade. They try to produce something like the Japanese voile but cheaper in price. There are also low grade/quality China voile and readymade China voile scarf (computerised machine) in the market.

Tudung bidang 45 | Tudung bidang 50 | Tudung bidang 55 / Tudung bidang 60
The standard size voile scarf is 45x45 inches. There are also bigger size voile scarf which are 50x50 inches and 55x55 inches. The size is actually referring to the width of the voile before production. Final product (after embroidery work) or actual size (finished product) will be lesser. 55x55 inches scarf is also known as tudung bidang 60 or 60 inches scarf. 60x60 inches voile is no longer available in our market. So if you ask for 60 inches voile scarf at any shop.. they will show you the 55 inches voile scarf. Our 50 inches voile scarf is actually from 55 inches voile (yes.. we cut it to size) since some people requested a bigger than standard size voile scarf.. but smaller than the 55 inches voile scarf (which is too big for them). It might be hard to get 50 inches voile scarf out there...
Tudung bidang besar | Tudung labuh | Tudung bulat
Tudung bidang besar or bigger size voile scarf normally refers to 55 inches voile scarf. Tudung labuh or tudung bulat is a readymade hijab which covers the whole upper body to a bit below the waist.
