This is one French fashion cliché that is true – French women love to wear French silk scarves! Parisians wear silk scarves year-round, and unless there’s a heatwave, you can almost always spot at least one woman on the street in Paris wearing a beautiful silk scarf. If you love French girl style, then you’ll adore these French silk scarves to add to your wardrobe!
French Silk Scarves
When building your French wardrobe, it’s good to have at least 2-3 silk scarves for different occasions. Silk scarves are the perfect way to spice up a boring outfit of jeans and a white t-shirt. They’re also practical for chilly days when you want to protect your neck from the wind.
I personally like to have these types of silk scarves in my French girl accessories collection:
- A bright and colorful silk scarf
- A neutral black, white, or beige silk scarf
If you don’t yet own a silk scarf, here are my recommendations. These are all French scarves with the exception of 3 scarves from other countries which I believe embody the Parisian style sensibility.
