DThe fact that a foulard is a large, flat piece of silk that needs to be tied and draped elaborately is a little bit French. Maybe you have to have France in your blood to do something like that intuitively. As a precaution, cloth brands provide folding instructions for everyone else, as if they knew that their customers were clueless. It says, for example: Lay the scarf into a triangle, fold the tip over, fold the scarf into a rectangle, place it around the neck and tie a double knot at the back. Or, for the even more striking triangle shape: wrap the scarf triangle directly around your neck, wrap it and double knot it on the side. Advanced wearers can twist a bolero, beach bag and convertible headgear out of the silk scarf.
If you've learned how to tie a foulard, like irregular French conjugations at school, then the special piece of jewelry on your body is secured (further gimmicks on your neck and ears would be nonsense, especially since, as the story goes, the Parisian is more likely to wear one accessory too few than one too many).
Paris in particular is a popular motif on these scarves: Longchamp conveys dozens of impressions of the city via postcard views on silk: Louvre, Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower, Haussmann facades and historic street lamps, croissants and bikes. And Hermès places its own landmark, the famous flagship store on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, on the canvas as a kind of freighter on stormy seas.
The other major foulard theme is flora and fauna: at Dolce & Gabbana the roses bloom on silk, at Von Schwanenflugel there are abstract motifs of zebras and leopards against a green background. And which way out of the labyrinth on the Friendly Hunting scarf? In addition to the knot thing, a silk scarf is always a hidden object to search for and find. This also requires patience.
