This summer’s most versatile accessory? A silk scarf

Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Kennedy wore theirs tied under the chin, usually with a pair of oversized sunglasses for added glamour. Kate Moss likes one draped louchely around her neck, while Olivia Palermo prefers hers tied in a flattering bow. Victoria Beckham, meanwhile, has often employed one as a 1970s-inspired belt.

There is, perhaps, no more versatile accessory than a silk scarf. Kendall Jenner knows this only too well: the model, and cover star of August’s Vogue France, wore a striped foulard twice during her photoshoot for the magazine, both as a Jackie O-style hair accessory and as a beach sarong. Actress Julie Christie is also in on the trend; she was spotted in London last month adding a pop of colour to her denim shirt with a skinny, red silk number tied loosely at the neck.
