Why decorative lightweight fashion scarf make a good gift

  • It can be worn through several seasons, not just the coldest months.
  • A bright print can freshen up plain outfits the recipient already owns.
  • It is light and easy to wear at work, at dinner or while travelling.

What to look for

  • Check the fibre, such as cotton, linen, viscose or a blend, for drape and feel.
  • Look at the size and shape, since long rectangles and squares tie in different ways.
  • Consider the recipient's usual colours so the print pairs with their wardrobe.

Questions people ask

Can a lightweight scarf be worn in winter?
Yes, it works indoors or layered under a coat collar. On its own it will not add much warmth outdoors.
How should a lightweight scarf be washed?
It depends on the fabric, so follow the care label. Many cotton and viscose scarves do best with a gentle hand wash and air drying.
