What is the difference between a shrug and a bolero?
1 Answer

The difference between a shrug and a bolero is its length and style. Generally, boleros are longer than shrugs. Often, they have more complex, dressier designs and are more likely to feature collars and decorative embellishments like buttons or beads. You'll find a variety of vintage and designer boleros and shrugs on 1stDibs.
