1/ The Modern Bow

Elegant & contemporary

Step 1: fold into a narrow strip and knot around your neck

Step 3: Fan out the fabric in the loop to create the half bow and adjust the ends as needed

2/  The Side Drape Tie

Relaxed & stylish 

Step 1: Hold two opposing corners of a rectangular scarf and fold in half along the axis

Step 2: Drape this around your neck with the bulk of the fabric to the front and loop back to front

Step 3: Tie the two corners to one side and adjust the fabric into the shape you can see here

3/ The City Knot

Smart & sleek

Step 1: Fold a rectangular scarf into a long narrow strip

Step 2: Gently tie a knot at one end keeping the strip very flat as you tighten it to create the triangular knot

Step 3: Drape this around your neck and adjust as necessary
