CUSTOMIZING YOUR HAT WITH SILK SCARVES

A silk scarf can bring color and movement to a summer hat. Here are three ways to pair an ANNE TOURAINE Paris™ scarf with a hat, from relaxed to dressy.

·  Style 1wrap a 90 × 90 cm (36 × 36 in) silk twill carré around the crown of your hat and let the ends fall at the back or to one side. Choose a scarf in a similar shade, or create contrast with a design that repeats one of the hat’s colors. Here we chose the cloudy white Paris New York scarf  whose touches of red echo the hat.

·  Style 2: starting at the back, wrap a 90 × 90 cm (36 × 36 in) silk twill carré around the crown and tie a generous bow at the front. This dressier look works for a wedding or a summer event. We used the yellow Paris for this style, but you can experiment with other large square scarves.

 ·  Style 3: follow the first method, this time with an ANNE TOURAINE Paris™ silk chiffon scarf. Let the long ends of the oblong scarf fall down your back for a softer silhouette. Our polka dot silk chiffon scarves come in colors that pair well with black, white and neutral hats. Pick one that also complements your outfit.
