I was recently asked by a lovely reader if I can share my tips on scarf wearing when you have a larger bust. Â So I’ve made a short video to tell you my tips. Â Don’t forget to check out these other posts that show more ideas and tips for scarf tying.
Brilliant! It seems so very chock full of common sense but it wasn’t until you explained it that I really gave it much thought. Makes total sense to keep in flat against my body. And my aha moment? Cutting a large wide scarf into smaller ones! This week I’ve got to go check out my drawer of scarves to see which are the best candidates. Thanks for all the great advice!
And suddenly I found a purpose for that pretty but extremely long scarf at the back of my wardrobe – Thank you!
Thank you — love the videos and the ideas. For me, a busty O-shaped woman, I use scarves quite a bit to draw the eye upward. As you suggested, I prefer silks that flow and lie flat — I tend to wrap and tie so that all the scarf is above my shoulders, adding lots of interest in the portrait area and ZERO bulk anywhere else. BTW, I learned about portrait areas from you — thank you!
Thank you for always remembering us busty girls!
I always remember the busty Darlene – are you coming to conference in Washington? love to catch up!
Wondered what you thought of infinity scarves -the ones that are sewn into a circle. You could wear it so you get two circles around the neck, or I have occasionally used it long, no wrapping just hanging loose. Thinner ones work better otherwise it can get bulky. Are conventional long scarves best if you are busty?
Thank you so much for this! I am in the process of losing weight and figuring out my bra size but I know its close to a 30 H (UK). I have several scarves that I keep trying to wear and just get disguted and frustrated because they are so bulky! I was thinking to cutting them so I’m glad I was on the right track. 🙂
Best post I have seen about scarve! I always avoid using them because I am short and busty and I felt they never looked right. Going to try some on today!
