A presidential sash is a cloth sash worn by presidents of many nations in the world. Such sashes are worn by presidents in Africa, Asia, Europe and, most notably, in Latin America. The sash is an important symbol of the continuity of the presidency, and is only worn by the president. Its value as a symbol of the office of the head of state can be compared to that of a crown in monarchies. When the president leaves office, he or she formally presents the sash to his or her successor as part of the official inauguration ceremony. Presidential sashes are usually very colorful, and designed to resemble the nation's flag, especially those of Latin American presidents. They are usually worn over the right shoulder to the left side of the hip. The national coat of arms is also usually placed on the sash. A national order's star or chain of office can also be worn. == Gallery == Image:Cristina Fernández de Kirchner 2011-12-10.jpg| Cristina Fernández, President of the Argentine Republic Image:Fernando Lugo Mendez (copyred).jpg|Fernando Lugo, President of the Republic of Paraguay, 2008–2012 Image:Dilma Rousseff - foto oficial 2011-01-09.jpg|Dilma Rousseff, President of the Federative Republic of Brazil Image:Mariano Ospina Pérez.jpg|Mariano Ospina Pérez, President of the Republic of Colombia, 1946–1950 Image:Presidente_Ollanta_Humala_Tasso.jpg|Ollanta Humala, President of the Republic of Peru, 2011– Image:Presidente Enrique Peña Nieto.
