How to Wear a Másání Scarf in 6 Cute & Easy Ways
Today, I’m going to be showing you six ways to wear a másání scarf. I love shopping at thrift stores for vintage scarves and my favorite has to be the másání scarf.
Másání scarf meaning
Másání is a Navajo word that translates to “grandma,” and the másání scarf meaning influences its title, as it has been long worn by our beloved grandmas. Keep reading to find out how to wear a másání scarf!
1. Oversized bow
1. Fold the scarf
Fold the másání scarf in half into a triangle. Fold the tip of the triangle down to the long edge.
Roll the blunt tip of the triangle down until it reaches the long edge.
2. Fold the second scarf
Fold a second másání scarf in half into a triangle. Fold the tip of the triangle a third of the way down.
Roll the blunt tip of the triangle down just once until it aligns with the long edge.
3. Form a cross with the two scarves
Lay the second scarf down over the first scarf to form a cross.
4. Tie a bow
Pinch the part of the second másání scarf where it intersects with the first másání scarf.
Tie the second scarf into a bow. Adjust to your liking. You can pull at the bow to give it more volume.
To wear, tie the ends of the scarf around your back and tuck the ends underneath.
This style is so cute. I love the oversized bow. This looks great worn over a simple t-shirt but can be worn over a strapless dress as well.
2. Corset belt
1. Fold the scarf
Fold a másání scarf in half into a triangle. Fold the tip of the triangle a third of the way down.
Roll the blunt tip of the triangle down just once until it aligns with the long edge. You can adjust the thickness to fit your waist.
2. Wrap the scarf around your waist
Wrap the scarf around your waist and tie it in the back. Tuck the ends so they aren’t visible.
This corset does an amazing job at defining your waist so you have an hourglass figure. I’d wear this with a t-shirt dress or oversized top to accentuate the waist.
3. Bow accessory
1. Fold the scarf
Fold a másání scarf in half into a triangle. Fold the tip of the triangle down to the long edge.
Roll the blunt tip of the triangle down just once until it aligns with the long edge.
2. Thread the scarf through your belt loop
Pull the scarf through your first belt loop. Make one side longer than the other, so the ends are even when tied.
3. Tie a bow
Make a loop with the shorter side and use the longer side to go around the loop. Pull through it to make the bow. Adjust to your liking.
This másání scarf fabric style is the perfect accessory for any outfit. If you want to wear this on a dress or pants with no loops, you can tie this onto a belt instead. This is the perfect way to dress up a basic t-shirt and jeans outfit.
4. Scarf top
1. Fold the scarf
Fold a másání scarf in half into a triangle. Fold the longest edge of the triangle up just once.
2. Put the scarf on
Flip the scarf over and put it on as a top. Secure by tying it in the back.
This top looks best when the scarf hits just below your waist so that’s why I shortened it.
With spring and summer coming around, this colorful floral print will be the perfect piece to wear, especially since it’s open in the back. To make this top stand out, pair it with white denim jeans.
5. Scarf bandeau
This next look is a modified version of the previous top. All you have to do is tuck in the bottom half of the scarf so the bottom is a straight line.
I recommend wearing this with high-waisted jeans or trousers for a chic look. You can even pair a matching blazer with it as well.
6. Asymmetrical top
1. Fold the scarf
Fold a másání scarf in half into a triangle. Fold the tip of the triangle a third of the way down.
Roll the blunt tip of the triangle down just once until it aligns with the long edge. This should match the width of the bandeau top from before.
2. Place across chest
Place it across your chest and wrap it around your shoulders so that the ends meet. Tie it in place.
I’ve been obsessed with asymmetrical tops lately as they’re super eye-catching. If you have two of the same colored scarves, you can use them to create this top or you can mix and match colors as I did.
