How to Wear a Large Silk Scarf in 3 Easy Ways
In this tutorial, I’m showing you how to wear a large silk scarf in three different ways.
All three styles have the same triangular base fold so you’ll easily remember them. The large silk scarf I’m styling today is a Russian silk shawl. Let’s style!
Tools and materials:
- Large silk scarf
1. Cowl neck style
1. Wrap the silk scarf around your neck
Starting with the triangular base fold, wrap the long side of the silk scarf to the back of the neck
2. Cross the sides over each other
Cross each side to the opposite side and tighten it around your neck.
3. Insert the tail into the inside of the scarf
Pull the tail of the scarf through the inside of the scarf and let it hang down behind the triangle.
Here’s the styled large silk scarf!
2. Twisted style
1. Twist your scarf
Starting again with the triangular fold, twist up your scarf around itself.
2. Place it around your neck
Place it around your neck, so the triangle hangs in the front. Cross it in the back and bring the tails forward.
3. Knot the tail to the scarf
Wrap the tail around the part of the scarf around your neck and pull it through the loop into a knot. Tuck the tail behind the scarf.
Here’s the finished styled large silk scarf!
3. Fancy style: Variation 1
This style has three variations.
1. Fold the scarf
From the triangular base fold, fold your scarf in half again.
2. Pull the inside tail through the scarf
Wrap the scarf around your neck and pull the inside tail through the loop (or the folded tip).
3. Tie the tails
Tie the inside tail and the outside tail together.
4. Adjust
Adjust the scarf so the tied tails are closest to the neck and the bulk of the scarf hangs down.
Here’s the finished styled large silk scarf!
3. Fancy style: Variation 2
1. Tighten the scarf
Tighten the tied tails so the bulk of the scarf that hangs down is much larger.
Like this. Let it hang so it looks almost like a tie.
Here’s the styled large scarf!
3. Fancy style: Variation 3
1. Pull the scarf through
Loosen the tie and pull the scarf through so there are two separate strands.
2. Bunch the scarf
Bunch the scarf up around the front.
Here’s the finished styled large silk scarf.
