There’s a long-beloved yet underrated accessory making waves amongst fashion and celebrity crowds. Long hailed as an outfit elevator, fashion people have been calling upon this subtle, elegant-looking accessory to refine and elevate their day-to-day outfits for decades.
Adding a wash of texture and a flush of colour, French women often reach for a silk scarf or necktie to refine their daily rotation.
Styled by Sofia Richie, the model and mum-to-be recently embellished her otherwise cream outfit with a blue and yellow neck scarf, silver heels, and light taupe bag. Wearing hers loosely tied around the neck, the necktie worked with Richie’s slightly slouchy silhouette, whilst adding another layer of interest and polish to her casual outfit.
Long beloved by French women—who pair the chic accessory with everything from a jeans and a t-shirt, to square-neck dresses and oversized jumpers—the subtle add on is worth its weight in gold for its unparalleled ability to elevate a simple look.
Whilst designer brands such as Chanel and Hermes champion the luxurious silk scarf, high street retailors such as Sezane, H&M and Arket all offer stylish—yet affordable versions.
