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.
