The existence of men's scarves dates back approximately 2,200 years. They were worn by politicians, artists and even warriors. Nowadays, it is an accessory that perfectly complements any look and keeps you warm in bad weather.
Forming a men's wardrobe is a stage that is worth spending time on. Even when choosing such a simple accessory, there are a number of important points to consider. An incorrectly chosen scarf can ruin your entire look.
How to choose the right men's scarf
In order to choose a good men's accessory, you need to consider several important points. First of all, you need to decide the purpose of its use. Based on your goal, you can pay attention to color, texture, length and other parameters.
For example, if a men’s wardrobe is dominated by a strict business (classic) suit and coat, then you need to choose a classic muffler of a standard rectangular shape.
Men's scarf style
Today there are a huge variety of types of men's scarves. Depending on the style, the following can be distinguished:
- Casual or everyday - regular, knitted or made of thick material for the cold season.
- Business – plain, discreet color, practical to use.
- Sports – snood scarf, for lovers of active recreation in winter.
- Summer - made of lightweight material, most often used for sun protection.
After determining how the neck accessory will be used and what basic wardrobe a man has hanging in his closet, you can begin choosing the material. A quality accessory should, first of all, be comfortable and suitable for the season.
Basic materials for scarves
- Wool is one of the more common and practical materials. The main feature of wool is thermoregulation - it is always warm in winter and cool in summer. It is best to choose a product made from merino wool, as this fiber is very fine, so the products are very soft.
- Cashmere is an expensive material; it is made from goat fluff, which is combed out during the spring molting period. Cashmere products are very light and warm.
- Silk is a famous smooth material. This accessory will look good with a jacket or high-breasted coat.
- Linen is a lightweight material, perfect for use in warm weather. The main disadvantage is that the fabric wrinkles quickly.
- Cotton - suitable for the warm season. Does not have the same thermoregulating properties as wool.
- Acrylic is a very pleasant material to the touch, but is not suitable for cold seasons when you need to keep warm.
ATTENTION! When choosing a good scarf for the cold season, it is better to focus on natural materials, or those compositions where artificial materials such as acrylic, nylon, polyester or viscose occupy a very small percentage. Be sure to study the ingredients label before purchasing. This will make it possible to make sure that when worn it will not cause discomfort.
Accessory color
A lot depends on the color. As you know, color can both age a face and refresh it. The color scheme of men's scarves uses rather conservative options, but it is worth choosing an accessory based on the basic men's wardrobe. A product that is several shades darker or lighter than the main clothing will look ideal.
- Classic blue and gray are some of the most popular colors. If you can’t choose a color, choose these colors and you definitely won’t go wrong. They go with almost all colors, and light gray refreshes the face.
- Black is a popular color, but not an ideal choice as it makes the face look quite old. However, it is considered very practical to use.
- White is a classic model, perfect for a dark coat. However, it is worth remembering that a white scarf will require special care and will have to be washed very often.
- Colored – a bright monochromatic model looks great on energetic men and creates a bold, eye-catching look.
Length of the product
When choosing a good men's accessory, it is also important to consider the length of the product.
ATTENTION! The ideal length of the scarf is one that matches the height of the man.
You can also choose a shorter or longer accessory, depending on how the man will wear it. The standard size for most manufacturers is 150*30 centimeters.
Choosing the size of a scarf should be based solely on personal preference. If you plan to wear it under a jacket or coat, a shorter scarf will work well, sometimes just one turn around the neck. If it will be placed outside, it is better to choose a longer option, it makes the figure slimmer.
Scarves are becoming an integral and important accessory in a man's wardrobe. This is a great way to highlight your wardrobe and add personality. Sometimes, in order to brighten up the look, you just need to tie the scarf a little differently than you are used to.
There are many options for how to wear a scarf. And if you don’t need all the ways to tie it beautifully, then there are definitely 2-3 options that will suit you perfectly. Don't be afraid to experiment! High-quality accessories can please not only women, but also men.
