That’s a Wrap: How to Style a Scarf
Forget the basics; here are the most elevated ways to wear a scarf this season
By: George ElliotAccessories can either make or break an outfit, so knowing how to wear a scarf – the accessory we’ll be turning to all spring/summer – is of vital importance. But we’re not talking about the classic cravat-like knot or the over-the-shoulder wrap-around. There are far more interesting, fashion-forward ways to style this wardrobe staple. From adding to a bag to incorporating into a hairstyle, here’s how Team Liberty will be wearing scarves this season.
The Bag Scarf
Sure, it’s a practical addition to your get-up, but sometimes the bag you choose to have by your side could do with a little dressing up itself. Enter the statement silk scarf. Option one: consider wrapping the scarf around the handle and tie at either end. Option two: if there’s a shoulder strap or disused loop ring, thread the scarf through and knot so that it cascades down like a charm. Our final recommendation: tie into a bow around the base of one of the handles (this works best with larger bags, like totes and buckets).

The Neck Scarf
This season’s shows made one thing clear: the neck scarf is back. Lightweight, usually square in cut and often patterned in vibrant prints, tie one loosely around your neck to elevate an off-duty jumper and jeans combination. Or, if you’re opting for tailoring - the power shoulder is among the season's biggest fashion trends, after all - accentuate your suit’s colouring with a tonal yet painterly pick. Either knot it like a neckerchief or treat it like a tie so that it sits under a collar or around a frilly neckline.

The Tie Scarf
Over recent seasons we've seen tailoring take on a whole new significance for women. But beside the blazer and waistcoat there's another suiting element that's risen high up the fashion agenda: the tie. For a Liberty twist on this new fashion trend, take one of our slim ribbon silk scarves, slip it under a shirt collar and knot as you please. As for which scarf you pick, select one that sits within your outfit's current colour palette or alternatively, start with the scarf and enhance its print with tonal pieces.

The Shawl
Sure, you can follow tradition by wrapping a scarf around your neck to cancel out the cold, but why not break with the usual and turn that winter warmer into a shawl? Perfect for throwing over your party dress just before heading out out, this cover-up-style scarf is just as handy when it comes to the office A/C wars, too, so drape one over your shoulders and fix in place by buckling a belt around your waist if you so wish. But for something a little outside the sartorial box, first slip into a trench or belted overcoat, cloak the scarf over just one shoulder and then fasten your coat’s waist-tie as usual. The result: top level street style.

The Hair Scarf
The trick here is to go for a scarf that’s on the smaller side and not too bulky. Then, you’ll need to decide on a way of tying the scarf that suits your look. For an upgraded braid, consider the scarf as an extra strand of hair and intertwine it throughout. Looking for an update on the classic ponytail? In this case, knot the scarf over your hair tie so that it falls downwards. But if you like your hair down, forget the standard-issue headband and instead wrap the scarf over and behind your head, knotting it so that your hair hangs loose over the top.
