You’re watching, the Disney Channel. But make it fashion.
Der dünne Schal kehrt zurück, Dank ihm Mädchen wie Emily Ratajkowski, Fartuna Jackson, und Elsa Hosk. Kürzlich in Paris gesichtet, Ratajkowski styled a red chiffon scarf with a little black dress, reviving the accessory’s chic appeal. Influencers Claudya Moreira and Matilda Djerf have also embraced the look, sparking nostalgia for the early 2000’s Y2K Disney channel-esque style.
This trend also complements the current coquette aesthetic, which emphasizes ribbons, silks, and feminine touches. Skinny scarves, with their delicate fabrics and elegant drapes, fit seamlessly into this romantic, girly look who wants to mix it with some Y2K edgelord fashion, since it’s debatably ugly to many people
Historically, skinny scarves have cycled through fashion. They adorned drop-waist dresses in the 1920s, looped around necks in the 1950s, symbolized mod subculture in the 1960s, and added a bohemian touch in the 1970s. Today, they’re seen as part of the “French girl aesthetic” linked to icons like Brigitte Bardot and Jane Birkin.
Recent runway shows, such as Gucci’s Fall 2024 menswear and Saint Laurent’s Spring 2024 Sammlung, have featured skinny scarves as statement pieces. Mainstream retailers and vintage shops offer various options for those looking to embrace the trend.
