THE INSPIRATIONAL GRACE KELLY SCARF STYLE

July 18, 2013

Updated September 22, 2026

Grace Kelly remains an enduring style icon. Her polished outfits and silk scarves still inspire elegant ways to dress.

Her signature accessories included leather handbags and gloves, pearls, sunglasses and hats.

Silk carrés, or square scarves, were another memorable part of her look on screen and in public. The headscarf style associated with her is often called the Kelly scarf.

Thank you,Princess Grace,for the enduring inspiration.

Draped over the head and tied at the neck, this style adds a little mystery. Sunglasses complete the look, while the scarf can help keep hair in place on a windy day.

You can create a small Kelly-inspired headscarf with an ANNE TOURAINE Paris™ 70 × 70 cm (27 × 27 in) silk twill carré. For more coverage and volume, try a 90 × 90 cm (36 × 36 in) square.
