Modernity has crept its fingers into our lives like a spider’s web. And men’s fashion is something that is excelling at the highest pace, more than you’ve had ever anticipated. There is something about dressing elegantly. It’s not always about high-end fashion outfits that bring out the most stylish and urbane streaks in men’s outfits. Even regular comfort wears can be worn in such a manner that it reflects the modern mentality and divergent thinking of the modern day man.
Scarves are one of such accessories which when worn right makes the most debonair and chic statement. Scarves have been used in men’s articles of clothing for a long time. Like for example, scarves are an essential part of the military uniform and the color of different scarf distinguishes one battalion from another. Nobody can deny the fact that it not only keeps the neck warm but it also makes the most stylish and charming point, revolutionizing the most regular outfits into a dappered one. Then you must have also seen cashmere scarves are draped over celebrities or dignitaries when they are paid homage to or when they are awarded the national awards in India.
Today fashion has reached the highest level of its expertise, thanks to the creative minds who work day and night for it. They have made us available with varieties of scarves to wear during winters with any style of clothing, like the woolen or cashmere or silk scarves, all adds up extraordinary grace to our ordinary everyday casual or formal looks, and radiates a subtle sophistication that doesn’t go unnoticed.
Here are some fascinating ways to tie a scarf for a debonair, genteel and snug look this winter:
- Effortless Drapes: You guessed it right! Just the simple drapes are the easiest and effortless ways to add refined sophistication to any dull winter wears. This can be worn easily over jackets or even suits to add the charming hint of urbanness. They look absolutely suave and are very cozy to wear where you are free to move your neck without any hassle.
- Snug Finesse: This is a really simple way out to drape scarves. You just need to drape your scarf over your shoulder and turn it around your neck, so that both the ends are near your chest. There is no hard and fast rule as to which side of the scarf length should be longer. They can both be of equal length or may vary in length as per your choice. It is totally your decision. This style of draping scarves and wearing them with suits is called as Ivy Leaguers style.
- Urbane Simplicity: Also called as the connoisseur scarf, it is a very simple and easy way out to drape your scarf is to just put it around the neck, and keep the length of one end longer than the other. Now simply take the longer end and pass it from under the lower end and then bring it out through the opening formed near your neck. Adjust the knot to the center and that’s about it. This is perfect for cold evenings and can be worn with pullovers or even jackets for a polished and gracious refurbishment to washout zestless winter pullovers and muted jackets. Of course, you can think out of the box and celebrate your creativity by wearing these along with somber and cheerless suits to add that extra dash of cheerful charm to your attire.
- Parisian Panache: The Parisian way of tying a scarf knot is the most famous of all the techniques and you’ll see why. You have to fold your scarf, once from the width and also once from the length. After this just drape it over your neck and cross it so that it forms a loop in the middle. Now simply tuck one end into the loop and adjust your knot. This style is admired a lot because of the comfortable and congenial drape that keeps you warm during freezing weather without letting you compromise on panache. It goes strikingly with any somber or regular wears exuding an irresistible debonair charm.
- The Obverse Charm: The perfect alternative for you if you find the above ones too complicated. It’s simple, drape your scarf over and keep one end longer than the other. Now simply take the longer end and drape it over your neck again and pass it through the loop you’ve just created near your neck. Once done, take the shorter end of the drape and pass it through the loop. Adjust your knot according to your level of comfort and you’re good!
- Confident Tucks: This style is very similar to the above knot. If what you have with yourself is a long scarf, then you can try this easily. First of all, drape the scarf around yourself and make sure to keep one length longer than the other. Now take the longer end of your scarf and drape it around your neck again this time. Once you’ve done it, use the same end and pass it from below the other end and finally, now just pass it from the loop you just created. Pull down both the ends to adjust your knot and you’re done, my friend!
- Dapper Knot: If you want to exude a simple yet striking look this knot is the ideal option for you. You need to drape your scarf over your neck keeping one side longer than the other. Now take the longer end and turn it around itself once so as to get a loop and just pass the end through the loop. Now take the other end as well and pass it through the same loop. Once done pull the ends to adjust your knot and voila, you’ve got yourself an uber sophisticated scarf done right.
- Twin Drapes: This style is an ideal way to protect you when it is freezing cold outside. Drape the scarf around your neck once keeping one end way longer than the other end. Now take the longer end and drape it around your neck twice. Yeah, you heard it right. You have to drape the longer end twice around your neck and then pass its end from the loop formed with the second drape around the neck. Let the other end hang loose. This method to tie your scarf shall definitely go a long way in keeping your neck warm and comfortable for the freezing climate outside.
- Splendid Poise: This trend is one of my favorites. It gels well with the austere overcoats or with any burnished colored or atramentous jackets generally worn in winters. It’s really very simple to drape. Start with draping it around your neck once keeping both the ends of the same length. Take one end and drape it around your neck once so that its end rest over the reverse side of the shoulder. Repeat it again with the other end as well. Now just put on you’re overcoat or jackets and you’re done. It looks so charming! And also a great alternative for all the other much-complicated draping ideas. Perfect if you have to rush out during chilly weathers. You can easily wear this with suits as well. A silk scarf under your suits gives a chivalrous revolution to your attire. O it looks so suave and sophisticated.
So these were some of the fascinating & trendy ideas to drape your scarves around so that you do not compromise on style and elegance while also keeping the genteel sung alive for the freezing winters.
