Another common way is to spread the scarf wide over the shoulders like a shawl. Loosely tying the front ends can create an elegant and feminine style.

If you want to style it more femininely, try using a belt. Wrapping a large muffler over the shoulders and tying it at the waist with a belt accentuates the waistline, creating a feminine silhouette. This also gives a new look to outerwear you might be tired of wearing every day.

As a winter staple, scarves offer warmth, style, and practicality, receiving unwavering love every year. This year, especially, there's a trend of much larger 'big big' mufflers. Thick mufflers in bright colors not only provide warmth but also highlight the face and make it appear smaller, offering a two-fold benefit, making it hard not to wear one.
