Jabot (neckwear)

A jabot (/ʒæˈboʊ/ ^ⓘ; from French jabot 'a bird's crop') is a decorative clothing-accessory consisting of lace or other fabric falling from the throat, suspended from or attached to a neckband or collar, or simply pinned at the throat. Its current form evolved from the frilling or ruffles decorating the front of a shirt in the 19th century.^{[1][need quotation to verify]}
