7 Ways to Style Your Classic Scarf

Wondering How to Style Your Silk Scarf? 

Here's 7 Way to Style the Classic Sized Scarf

Effortless, Elegant, Endlessly Versatile

At Studio Richau, we’re all about pieces that work hard and make a statement. Our Classic size scarf, measuring a perfectly balanced 25" square, is that piece. It’s wearable art that plays effortlessly with your style, season to season, day to night.

Whether you're adding a whisper of color or making a bold impact, this staple brings polish, personality, and just the right touch of playfulness. 

Here are a few of our favorite ways to style it:

 

1. The Triangle Tie

Fold it in half diagonally and tie a double knot. 

Actually, we prefer a square knot (think: left over right, right over left when tying) so the knot lays evenly.

Adjust the knot to sit low or snug at your neck, casually off to the side, or even toward the front to show off the dramatic knot detail. Try a scarf slide accessory for more visual interest.

The triangle tie is a perfect for a touch of warmth, a bit of sun coverage, or an elevated everyday look.

 

2. Rolled & Refined

Start with a diagonal fold, then loosely roll the scarf into a soft tube.

Wrap it around your neck and tie it wherever feels right: low and classic, high and flirty, or off-center for a playful asymmetry.

This look offers less coverage than the triangle, so it’s great for warmer weather or minimal styling with maximum impact.

 

3. As a Belt

When rolled, the Classic size reaches about 35”, just long enough to cinch around the waist for a fresh, colorful detail.

You can also fold it in a triangle and tie it over a skirt or dress for a more sculptural, eye-catching twist.

Need more length? Try our Statement size instead.

 

4. Chic Headscarf

Whether rolled or folded, a silk scarf in the hair always feels timeless and cool.
Use it as a headband, wrap it for full coverage, or tie it at the nape for an easy vintage nod.

Pro tip: A discreet bobby pin can help keep things in place on breezier days or if the silk wants to slip around a little too much.

 

5. Wrapped at the Wrist

A rolled Classic scarf doubles as a modern bracelet. Just wrap, knot, and go.
It’s a little unexpected and very chic.

 

6. Handbag Flair

Tied to a tote or looped around a handle, this is one of our favorite on-the-go style tricks.

It adds instant polish to your look, and it’s always close by if you want to pop it on for warmth, sun protection, or a spontaneous style shift mid-day.

 

7. Add some jewelry

Your scarf is such a bold statement on its own, but metallic or colorful jewelry can help showcase your style. 

Layer delicate necklaces that peek through the folds, or choose earrings that complement rather than compete.

Try one of these hand-forged scarf slides to add even more dimension and style. 

The key: balance. Let your scarf lead, and let your accessories enhance the story.

 

Final Tip: There’s No Wrong Way to Wear It

Scarves are meant to be played with.

aTry different folds, let your mood lead the way, and don’t be afraid to get creative.
