The silk used for this scarf is certainly luxurious, and the fine tassels are an elegant touch. The length is perfect for the ascot tie if that's how you prefer to wear your silk scarves. However, the length also lends itself well to the drape, once around, and Parisian knot. Although the scarf should be handled delicately, it is easily tied and very smooth on the skin, but really you should wear it over your jacket or collard shirt if possible because it's real silk and will yellow after contact with too much sweat.
I own 4 Soho scarves and cannot say enough good things about them. I would honestly buy this a second time and probably get the black silk aviator scarf just for variety with outfits.
