Now that you have ideas for how to style a classic silk scarf, it’s time to find the perfect add-on to your wardrobe. The trick to wearing the beloved accessory right is to find a scarf that is the right size for maximum versatility. When in doubt, look for pieces that are on the larger side, and make sure the distance between the adjacent corners is long enough to wrap around your torso, head or waist. As for the design, signature prints from heritage fashion houses are always a good call, or you can go wild with clashing colours and geometric patterns.
