Scarves were initially worn by men around their neck or tied to their belt. The scarf developed into a real fashion accessory by the early 19th century for both men and women. Scarves do not judge you and they have a tendency to stick around your body. A shorter scarf is the best for neckties and basic drapes while a longer scarf is better for more complicated knots. Any heavy winter scarves are ideal for a simple toss and tuck but feel free to try each knot with a bunch of different scarves to see how it looks. Here some favourite methods and scarf tying ideas you can try.
Try these easy ways to style your scarf
Belted Drape
- Step 1: Drape the scarf evenly around your neck and let it hang.
- Step 2: Fasten a skinny belt over the scarf at the waist.
The Front Tie
- Step 1: Drape the scarf evenly around your neck and let it hang.
- Step 2: Cross and tie the two ends in the centre. Adjust so that one is layered over the other, and fluff.
Knotted basic loop
- Step 1: Drape the scarf unevenly around your neck (the short end should hit the chest area).
- Step 2: Loop the longer end around your neck twice before letting it hang.
- Step 3: Jauntily tie the two ends off to the side.
The figure 8
- Step 1: Fold your scarf in half and drape around your neck.
- Step 2: Feed the top end through the loop.
- Step 3: Twist the loop to create a second hole.
- Step 4: Feed the bottom end through the second hole. Adjust accordingly.
Loop with a tie
- Step 1: Loop the scarf around your neck once. Make sure one end is longer than the other (the longer side will be the one to create the knot).
- Step 2: Bring the longer end behind and then over the shorter end to create a makeshift loop.
- Step 3. Feed the longer end up and into this loop to form a knot. Tighten the knot and push up (like a tie).
