We curated this collection to highlight the effortless luxury of draping a knit sweater as a functional scarf. Tying lightweight merino or textured cotton knits over tailored button-downs or breezy linen shirts delivers dynamic dimension without bulky layers. Our styling desk recommends choosing complementary pastel or cream tones that flatter base shirting.
