How to Style a Skinny Scarf

Y2K strikes again! Skinny scarves have officially been declared as one of the must-have accessories of the season.

The early 2000s: a time of mini skirts, velour tracksuits, dresses over pants, questionable red carpet looks, and of course, skinny scarves. If you claim that you've never worn and/or owned a skinny scarf in your life, then we all know you're lying. An accessory that dominated Y2K fashion, the skinny scarf is making its comeback. As one of the most divisive accessories of its time—those skinny scarves appeared on the red carpet way too many times than they should have—it only makes sense that the trend has come back for its redemption era. 

Seen on the likes of Y2K fashion icons such as Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Ashley Tisdale, Lindsay Lohan, Hilary Duff, and Nicole Richie, the skinny scarf had nothing to do with practicality and everything to do with serving a look. The thin, and quite honestly useless, piece of fabric has already made its appearance back in the high fashion world after Miu Miu attendees during Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2023 were spotted in the accessory. If you're looking for a way to add the skinny scarf to your own everyday look, L'OFFICIEL looks at celebrity and fashion style influences to find all the inspiration you need.
