Square Scarves
Our square scarves are the most versatile piece you can own. Fold one into a neck knot, tie it in your hair, knot it onto a handbag, or wear it open as a light cover. Each design is printed in signature BanuStyle colorways on soft, easy-to-tie fabric.
Everything to know about square scarves
How to choose a square scarf
Start with size. A smaller square is perfect for neck knots and hair styling, while a larger square gives you more drape for the shoulders or a headscarf. Consider the pattern next: a plain square is endlessly wearable and pairs with everything, while a bold print becomes the focal point of an outfit. Finally, think about color family, and pick shades that already live in your wardrobe so the scarf feels styled rather than separate.
Ways to wear a square scarf
The beauty of a square is how many looks it holds. Fold it into a band for a Parisian neck knot, wrap it around a ponytail, tie it to a bag handle, or fold it into a triangle for a soft headscarf. Because the same scarf can do all of this, a square is often the best first scarf to own. Explore our styling guides for step-by-step instructions on each look.
Caring for your square scarves
Most printed and satin-finish squares prefer gentle care. Hand wash in cool water, press out excess without wringing, and lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Store loosely rolled to avoid hard creases, and iron on the reverse at low heat with a cloth in between to protect the print.

Square Scarves FAQ
What size are BanuStyle square scarves?
Our standard square scarves measure approximately 100 by 100 cm (about 39 by 39 inches), a versatile size that works for neck, hair, handbag, and shoulder styling. Exact dimensions are listed on each product page in both centimeters and inches.
What is the best way to wear a square scarf?
For everyday wear, fold the square into a band and tie a neat knot at the neck. For hair, fold into a thin band and tie over the crown or around a ponytail. Both take seconds once you know the fold. See our Ways to Style guides for full instructions.
Are square scarves good for beginners?
Yes. A mid-size square is the most forgiving scarf to learn on because it holds so many looks with simple folds, and it works across seasons and outfits.
How do I keep the print from fading?
Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent, dry flat away from direct sun, and iron on the reverse at low heat. Avoid harsh machine cycles, which are the main cause of fading and snags.
