Winter Fashion: Neck and Neck
The scarf has loftier sartorial ambitions than would be implied by its (supposed) primary purpose of keeping a neck warm. The right scarf is a physical manifestation of fashion’s Holy Trinity of colour, pattern and texture, and adds a much-needed punch of personality to the otherwise bland overcoat or neutral trench. Personal but not too intimate, and one-size-fits-all, a scarf also makes for the perfect corporate gift (as long as you don’t ruin it with an embroidered company logo). - Steve Schelling
