You have a luxurious mink coat, and people around you turn to look at you. But here’s the problem: it’s difficult to choose a hat to go with it. A fur hat under a fur coat is a good option, but your hair will wrinkle under it, and it’s not very fashionable anymore. A knitted hat with clothes made of natural fur is bad manners. It turns out there are two options left. Either walk bareheaded, risking meningitis, or learn to combine a scarf with a fur coat (the photo shows successful examples).
Choosing a scarf for a fur coat
There are several types of scarves. It could be a muffler, a stole, a Pavlovo Posad scarf or its imitation, an arafatka, a woolen scarf, a knitted scarf, or a cowboy scarf.
Scarf options
Brief description of the accessory
Snood translated from English means “net”. Previously, such a headdress was used to secure hair on the head. In modern society, a long scarf sewn at the ends is called a snood. It can be used as a collar, hood or scarf.
Combination options
A wide range allows you to choose an accessory of any thickness and density. Loose knits have more winding options. A girl can turn a scarf into a vest or bolero. The textile material is intended for the manufacture of long snood scarves. In this case, the product is only wrapped by crossing around the neck and head.
Which stole to choose?
When choosing a stole, you should be guided by the main question: what will it be worn with? Decorate a coat or an evening dress, a romantic blouse or a “rocker biker jacket” - there are a lot of options. The main thing is to follow the basic rules of clothing combinations, taking into account the characteristics of your figure and face. Naturally, a stole with a similar floral print will not fit under a floral blouse, and a stole made of dense and hard material will look rude on thin fabric.
When choosing a stole, pay attention to its color scheme. The shade should “suit” the face and match the things you plan to wear it with. Options are also possible here: it can be an independent bright accent in a woman’s appearance or a finely selected elegant addition to clothing.
So, the more similar accessories a woman has in her wardrobe, the easier it is to create any stylish looks in clothing.
Which is better - a hat or a scarf?
Stylists approach this issue ambiguously. Some believe that with mink fur you should choose a mink hat that matches the fur coat or is lighter in color. Others, on the contrary, argue that a fur hat does not go with a mink. Which is better, a hat or a scarf, is an individual question, it’s up to you to decide. The main thing here is not to rush, try it on and think, taking into account everything: the shape of your face, skin color, age, etc.
Beautiful scarf
Hats do not suit everyone, and despite their wide variety, it can be very difficult to choose. A scarf, as an accessory, has enormous possibilities.
A headscarf suits almost all women, regardless of age. This thing is timeless, it will always be fashionable and stylish. Skillfully selected and beautifully tied, a scarf can transform a woman, make her feminine and attractive. A scarf is a symbol of femininity, mink clothing is also an elegant thing, so a fur coat and a scarf go perfectly together.
Fur and vests
There are expensive furs (mink, sable) and cheaper ones (fox, silver fox, arctic fox), and there are smooth and fluffy ones. Therefore, depending on the fur and your desires, we choose!
- Arctic fox vest . It is fluffy and voluminous, so it is better to wear such a thing for thin and graceful ladies, because a sleeveless fox vest will visually further enlarge a plump woman. Ideally, you can wear skinny pants or tapered trousers under the Arctic fox.
Arctic fox fur vest
- Fox vest . Such sleeveless vests look unusual because of their red, light orange hue. Turtlenecks, tight-fitting dresses, and tunics with leggings are suitable for this vest. It would be wonderful if the bottom was black, which would give the top even more richness of color.
Fox vests
- Silver fox vest. P fluffy and voluminous, you can choose a short version for slender girls.
Silver fox vest
- A sleeveless vest made from mink looks representative and expensive, so you should take care of the other things that should not weigh down the look, but support the overall elegant look.

How to tie a scarf to a fur coat
A scarf under a fur coat is a classic (photo). According to experts, fur, especially with long pile, should not come into contact with the exposed skin of the neck - there should be a scarf, shawl or muffler between the blouse, top, dress and outerwear.
If you listen to the opinion of manufacturers of fur products, they strongly do not recommend tying any scarves over outerwear. But it’s so beautiful and stylish! And if you also know not one, but several ways to tie a scarf on a fur coat, then you can always look attractive and fresh.
Let's consider options for how to tie a scarf with a fur coat:
- Classic version: fold the scarf diagonally (it is better to choose a larger accessory size). We pass the folded scarf from front to back, cross the ends and lower them forward. Ours is long, so it’s enough to make one or two knots or a bow.
- Regardless of the length of the scarf, it can be secured with a single, laconic knot. Moreover, it can be made of any material.
- If the length of the scarf or stole allows, wrap it several times around your neck so that the ends fall forward. Now make a knot - a tight knot will be warmer, and a loose knot will make the look free.
- How to tie a scarf under a fur coat if it is a long and wide stole? With one hand, grab the stole in the middle, without trying to fold fold to fold; with the other hand, hold both ends. Now you put it on the fur coat and pull the ends through the loop on the other side. Tighten slightly. All that remains is to straighten the ends and hide them under a fur coat. This option is called the “French knot” and looks great on fur coats with a stand-up collar.
- Aren't you afraid of experiments? Take a long and wide knitted scarf. Moreover, the fluffier the thread, the better. We throw it over our head, cross the ends under the chin and throw them back. We do not tie the ends of the stole into a knot. In this version, a silk scarf will look beautiful. This option is not suitable for products with a hood. Young girls can experiment with a knitted scarf. But it’s worth considering that it makes the look somewhat heavy: a mink coat with a hood and a knitted detail will not look good.
- For a model with a collar, we lift it, throw over the stole, cross the ends and throw them behind the back. There should be an elegant drapery on the chest.
- We hide the ends of a regular scarf under it or under a fur coat. But if there are tassels, decorative trim, fur trim, fringe, then we place this beauty on our chest.
Shawl and fur coat
A beautiful scarf with a fur coat is another good option for fur outerwear. It can be tied on the head, around the neck, under the hood or under the collar.
- An old-fashioned head scarf. Place the scarf over your head, cross the ends under your chin and tie them at the back over the scarf. Or just tie a scarf under your chin.
- A scarf tied with a turban on the head also looks stylish. If you have long fluffy wavy hair, the look will be luxurious.
- You can simply wear the scarf as a scarf, putting it under your outerwear.
- How do you like the idea of emphasizing your waist by tying a scarf on your belt and making a rope out of it? Just choose the color of the scarf to match the fur, or play with contrast. And the material is expensive, for example, silk, satin.
- If the mink coat has a hood, then we use this part as a headdress and tie a scarf over the hood. It is desirable that it has long ends.
- You should not use a hairpin or brooch to hold the ends of the scarf, as this can damage the fur. But a beautiful scarf, tied in front with a special hairpin, is a good option. There is no knot as such, and the ends of the scarf hang down under the weight of the hairpin.
Of course, the combination of a scarf and outerwear does not exhaust the combination of a scarf and outerwear. A little practice in front of the mirror - and you can beautifully tie a scarf on a fur coat in just a couple of seconds, and in different ways. Experiment - everything is in your hands, because only you know what suits you and what can add zest to your look.
