While enjoying a girls’ trip in Mallorca, Spain, with her younger sister Kylie, Kendall Jenner showcased the true versatility of a scarf.
In the first of a series of three black-and-white shots posted to her 293 million Instagram followers, the model wore a retro silk kerchief tied around her neck and gracefully over her hair while reclining on a yacht. She teamed it with a triangle bikini and large shades in traditional old Hollywood style – a definite look to try this summer.
Kendall oozed the elegance of high-society figures from the 50s, 60s and 70s, such as Jackie Kennedy and Grace Kelly, who both adored this au courant style.
The look was also beloved by screen sirens Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, Elizabeth Taylor, and Audrey Hepburn, who wore a white headscarf by Hubert de Givenchy when she married her second husband, Andre Dotti, in 1969.

However, there are countless ways to style scarves – as Kendall demonstrated in another snap taken on dry land, the same scarf can be fashioned into a teeny-tiny sarong.
Ways to experiment with this versatile accessory includes a halter top: fold the scarf into a triangle, wrap it around your back, bring the two ends up to your neck, and tie them in a knot. A bag accent: tie the scarf onto the handle of your bag for a pop of colour and a touch of interest. It can also work as a belt, bracelet, choker, ponytail or bun wrap…or incorporated in a braid.

And, perhaps more demure, in another series of pics entitled ‘9pm sunsets’ Kendall is back on the yacht wearing a lilac dress by Khaite, while drinking wine.
Is it me, or do these girls have far more fun when they’re in Europe?
