There's no better way to add class and color to an outfit than with silk scarves, especially when paired with fall fashion neutrals. Whether you are looking for a beautiful, warm layer to don on a cool night out or wanting to add a lovely new touch to your workwear, fall scarves from The Met Store will add the elegance you desire.
Elevate Your Autumn Style with a Unique Silk Scarf
From online meetings to Sunday brunch, add an artful flair to your outfit with a distinctive scarf. Enhance your autumn wardrobe options with The Met Store’s art-inspired scarves, such as the William Morris Mixed Patterns Oblong Silk Scarf , a 100% silk crêpe de chine botanical-print scarf that unites two block-printed wallpaper patterns, Jasmine (1872) and Blackthorn (1892). These two patterns, created decades apart, merge beautifully in this scarf, which looks equally lovely draped over the shoulders or used as a headwrap. Or, tip your hat to the Chinese zodiac’s year of the Tiger with the Chinese Kesi Tiger Oblong Silk Scarf. Inspired by an Eastern Chinese tapestry-woven, or kesi, panel (10th–12th century) in The Met Collection, this silk textile features a tiger design on a floral backdrop.
Give Glamorous Gifts This Fall with The Met Store Art Scarves
Square silk scarves are a timeless fashion item. Add art-inspired designs to a classic silk scarf and it results in an accessory with serious staying power. Give a thoughtful holiday gift, birthday present, or Valentine’s Day gift to the discerning shopper on your list with the Louis C. Tiffany Peony Silk Neckerchief. Based on an elaborate lampshade by Louis Comfort Tiffany (American, 1848–1933), this 22'' square silk crêpe de chine scarf is adorned with deep red peonies and rich green foliage. This iconic scarf pairs with a simple black shift dress for a distinctly Audrey Hepburn-inspired look.
Even as the weather begins to cool, give a nod to your year-round love of the sea with the Winslow Homer Shore and Surf Square Silk Scarf. Inspired by Homer’s painting, Shore and Surf, Nassau (1899), this scarf will keep the sublime beauty of the sea close to your heart, no matter the season. If you are planning a wedding, bridal shower, or other milestone event, a silk scarf is a lovely and useful accessory to give to your bridesmaids or special guests. The Demuth Yellow and Blue Watercolor Square Silk Scarf features yellow and white flowers within a dreamy atmosphere, making it an elegant scarf that they will reach for frequently in the years to come.
Warm Up This Fall with Wool- or Cashmere-Blend Scarves from The Met Store
As the leaves turn and the autumn breeze begins, wool- or cashmere-blend scarves become more than a fashion accessory. Cozy up your fall fashion with warm, soft, art-inspired scarves from The Met Store. A perennial favorite and best-seller, the Louis C. Tiffany Peacock Feather Wool-Blend Shawl is an excellent choice. The vibrant jewel tones and peacock feather design are inspired by a Favrile vase (ca. 1900) in The Met collection by Louis Comfort Tiffany.

For a light yet particularly soft option, the Flora and Fauna Oversize Cashmere-Blend Shawl is a lovely wrap for autumn. Recalling a Chinese silk panel in The Met collection, this scarf features motifs of phoenixes and peacocks mingling with Chinese mythological beasts, horses, a tiger, and more. Amply sized for a warming layer but light enough to tuck into your bag or carry-on, you will get plenty of use out of your cashmere-blend scarf from The Met Store.
Whatever silk scarves you select for yourself or to gift, you are sure to love the beautiful, art-inspired addition it will make to anyone’s wardrobe.
