Styling Our Linen Scarves for the Summer!
Summer style isn’t about playing it safe—it’s about turning up the drama. You’re in lighter fabrics, yes, but that doesn’t mean dialing things down. This is the season for statement accessories that can handle the spotlight. Enter: Maneesha Ruia’s linen scarves.
Forget throwaway layers or basic cotton wraps. These scarves are cut from a breathable linen-modal blend, finished with sculptural lace, and designed to do exactly what mass-made accessories don’t—stand out. Each piece is made to style like a main character. Over silk camis, summer co-ords, wide-legged linen sets—this is how you bring personality to high heat.
If you’ve been scrolling for scarves online that actually make an impact, this is your edit. Four pieces. Four moods. All crafted to outshine everything else in your closet right now. Let’s break down how to style each one like you’re already on your way to somewhere fabulous.
Soft pink, sharp styling
This isn’t pastel for the sake of softness. The baby pink linen-modal scarf, finished with a dramatic scalloped lace border, is clean, fresh, and impossible to overlook. It’s pretty—but intentional. And when styled well, it’s a power move.
How to wear it like a grown-up
Here are a few ways you can style this scarf:
-
Over a strapless cream jumpsuit, knotted at the neck or thrown over one shoulder
-
With a crisp white oversized shirt, sleeves rolled, scarf tied low for drama
-
Paired with sleek trousers and a low bun for a high-low moment that works all day
What makes it work
This scarf doesn’t need help—it is the look. But it plays well with a neutral palette: creams, soft golds, sun-faded browns. Think earthy sandals, a leather clutch, maybe one statement ring. This isn’t dainty. It’s deliberate. A standout pick from any collection of luxurious scarves, and one that earns its place fast.
Prints that don’t play by the rules
This one doesn’t fade into the background. With its stunning hand-painted amour design and that tonal light pistachio georgette frill and filigree lace border, this linen-modal scarf isn’t trying to be sweet. It’s stunning, moody, and rich—like vintage wallpaper in a private club.
Make it your statement piece
Here’s how:
-
Style it over a black tank dress with tan leather sandals and oversized tortoiseshell sunglasses
-
Tuck it under a blazer for sharp, dinner-ready styling with an edge
-
Wrap it like a belt over a neutral linen shirt dress for a twist no one saw coming
Why this floral isn’t like the others
Because it doesn’t beg for spring. It’s floral for the woman who prefers a strong line over soft petals. This linen scarf bridges the space between tailored and wild—and it knows exactly what it’s doing. A standout option for anyone tired of overdone patterns and underwhelming details.

Lace that looks like luxury, not an afterthought
There’s nothing demure about the mousse linen-modal scarf edged with an ivory lace border. That lace is clean, confident, and impossibly polished. It’s refined and romantic.
The new way to do an ivory scarf
Try the following ways to style your ivory scarf to take it from basic to wow:
-
Layer it with a slate blue silk co-ord and slicked-back hair for early evening drinks
-
Wrap it over a sculpted cream linen vest for a monochrome moment with depth
-
Wear it as a capelet with a structured mini dress and tonal heels
What’s the wow factor?
It’s in the textural contrast. The delicateness of the lace with the sharpness of the base tone. The way it draws the eye without screaming. This isn’t a filler piece, it’s how you make white feel fresh again.
If you’re looking for an ivory scarf that won’t blend into the background or play the support role, this is it. Polished, clean, and high-impact from every angle.
Color with a backbone
Mustard separates the bold from the basic. This mustard linen-modal scarf with its mousse-hued scalloped lace finish isn’t playing into trends. It’s timeless. It’s grown. And it knows exactly how to take up space. The muted tone keeps it wearable, but there’s nothing shy about it.
Go bold, beautiful
Here’s how to style this scarf with confidence:
-
Pair with a matching set in beige or biscuit and let the scarf do all the talking
-
Style it as a one-shoulder wrap over a high-neck tank for a day-to-dinner switch-up
-
Use it as a beach-to-brunch layer over a white dress and sculpted leather sandals
Why this color works in summer
It adds depth without darkness. It flatters sun-kissed skin. And unlike pastels, it has a grounded, grown-up feel. This is the piece you throw on when the outfit feels “fine” but you want “wow.”
No one needs to be told what to do with a linen scarf like this. You already know.
