Spring/Summer Scarves

Scarves are an essential item in some countries and customs. They are used as decoration or a functional accessory to the uniform they accompany. Wikipedia's entry reads: "A scarf is a piece of fabric worn on or near the head or around the waist for warmth, cleanliness, fashion or for religious reasons."

Due to the various fabrics used to make scarves, I find they can also be used for protecting the neck from the sun rays and thereby afford some cooling relief on hotter days. Looking at all of the fashion designers offerings this season may visually explain the variations for scarves.





Check out offerings from these designers to see more: Burberry, Missoni, Alexander McQueen, Cole Haan, Chanel, Etro, Lanvin, Hermès, Nicole Miller, Ferragamo, Emilio Pucci, Dior and Prada, for example.
