sash
Waist-worn cloth strip
A sash is a decorative band of fabric worn around the waist or over one shoulder, often indicating rank, achievement, or ceremonial status: The beauty queen wore her sash and tiara.
Military officers and dignitaries wear sashes as part of formal dress.
Separately, a sash is the frame holding glass panes in a window—a sash window slides up and down within its frame.
