Ooh la la! What’s more chic than following the fashions of gay Paree?
You Will Need
- A large square scarf
- A flat surface
Step 1: Spread scarf
Spread large square scarf on a flat surface in the shape of a diamond.
Step 2: Bring up bottom point
Bring bottom point toward top point, placing it a little above the middle of the scarf.
Step 3: Bring top point down
Fold the scarf again, this time bringing the top point down to the straight, closed end of the scarf.
Step 4: Fold bottom edge
Fold the bottom edge over so that it is now directly in line with the scarf points on the left and right.
Step 5: Fold top edge
Fold the top edge down to the newly-formed bottom edge.
Step 6: Fold entire scarf
Fold the entire scarf again, lengthwise.
Step 7: Hold scarf against neck
Hold the scarf against the front of your neck.
If you have a scarf that’s too small to work with, tie it around your favorite handbag.
Step 8: Wrap scarf
Wrap the scarf around your neck, looping at the back. Keep the sections adjacent to one another, not on top.
Step 9: Knot ends
Bring the ends back to the front and knot.
Step 10: Rotate scarf
Rotate the scarf gently until the knot is at the side of your neck.
Step 11: Knot again
Secure with another knot.
Before 1900, scarves were used exclusively as head coverings, not fashion accessories.
