How to wear a square scarf?
22 Answers
I've been given a very nice thin scarf from Accessorize, but it's square - and I've never had a square one before. I might sound silly, but how are you meant to wear it...? I can't make it look right!
Thanks...

On your head or around your neck doesn't really matter and depends how big it is, but the usual method is to fold it into a triangle and wear it that way.
If around the neck, you can either tie it or clip it, with point at back front or side, or you could roll it short like a scout neckerchief.
If on your head, then you can tie it under your chin and wear it like the Queen does, or you could tie it behind your neck. Alternatively, you could wear it like a WW2 turban. Straight edge of the triangle at the back, bring the point over to the forehead and bring the ends round to tie at the front, over the point. Then you bring the point up and over the ties, tucking it in.
If you break your arm in the meantime, use as a sling.

fold it in half to make a triangle, put it on your head (2 pointed ends in your hands & the 3rd one at the back of your neck) tie the 2 ends in your hands, under your neck.

Thanks very much for your answers so far! Didn't think to look for videos showing how to wear scarves!
This is the scarf:

I'm in my 20's, so don't want it to make me look too old fashioned! I also usually dress pretty casually, so would like to be able to wear it with casual (ish) clothes. Wouldn't wear it on my head. I've seen what I assume is this style of scarf being worn loosely around the neck on girls my age and younger, just can't work out how!

squidgster, nice scarf :) I have a couple of similar ones that I acquired over Christmas. They are really funky, and light enough for spring too! Given the size of it, I just fold mine in half cross-ways (to make a triangle) then make sure the biggest point (like the middle of the scarf) sits on my front, and I wrap the "ends" round my neck once and back to the front, so it stays on!
