A printed scarf is an elegant way to inject smart outfits with character and this Italian-made piece by Gucci is a fine choice. Crafted from lightweight modal and linen-blend, it is apt for year-round dressing. Tuck it beneath the lapels of an evening jacket for a subtle dash of pattern or loop it over a blazer by day. Shown here with a Gucci blazer , trousers , belt and boots and Lanvin sweater .
