You don’t often see a scarf with a coat on domestic fashionistas who prefer beautiful styling for traveling in a car, or warm hats for walking. But, as an option for a light headgear, it deserves more attention. It is elegant, effective, and also perfectly protects from the sun or wind.
Headscarf under a coat
There are three main ways, the rest is their variations.
Classic way
Turban
- Standing straight, throw a long rectangular piece of fabric over your head. Take the ends back, behind the back of the head, cross them and twist them with a tourniquet. Bundles bring forward, then wrap them around the head, securing under the layers of fabric in front or behind - as long as the length allows. The result is a compact, well-held turban.
- Of two scarves. Unfortunately, rectangular scarves of sufficient length for turbans are not so popular. Therefore, in order to achieve volume and an interesting color scheme, two fabric cuts can be used. Their ends are connected with each other, the node is placed on the back of the head. Throwing the ends forward they cross each other. Twist several times to get a tourniquet and return back. The procedure is repeated several times until the short ends of the tissue remain. They are seasoned between the layers.
- In African. A high bun is made of hair, a hair roller can be placed. A rectangular scarf is taken, it is passed at the back of the head, the ends on the forehead are crossed, and wrapped around the beam several times. The ends are hidden under a cloth anywhere or twisted with a tourniquet and tied.
Peasant
REFERENCE. That is how, in a peasant way, this scarf was worn by Bridget Bardot, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and Jacqueline Kennedy.
There are variations of the method. The scarf is tied in front, but not under the chin, but a little lower on the chest, covering the shoulders. It goes well with a trench coat. In this way, you can see Victoria Beckham.
Some rules for tying a scarf over a head with a coat
- Motley with monophonic.
- Bright and colorful with a neutral or snow-white. Light patterned shawls are good with dark coats.
- Pavloposadsky shawl is combined with any coat or fur coat, but it should be the only bright accent in the image.
- With a coat of expensive fur - an elegant, very high-quality scarf made of silk or cashmere.
- Warm wool, down and fur products are best combined with short youth coats or coats.
Consider the shape and complexion:
- Women with a round face should either leave their hair in front of a scarf or tie it so that it covers their full cheeks. The most unfortunate option is a tight-fitting thin shawl, tied in Hollywood style. It will further emphasize roundness.
- Bright girls with red hair, blush, it is better to avoid colorful scarves. Cold, calm tones are best. On the contrary, ladies with an even and pale complexion can afford the colors a la Khokhloma, without risking becoming a nested doll.
REFERENCE. A few witty looks: a peasant-style shawl with a leather jacket, a shawl over a fur hat to create an original Russian style, a bright turban, accent on the lips, massive glasses with a calm classic coat - for a bohemian look.
