Features and Benefits
Scarves-shirtfronts came into fashion in the middle of the 20th century thanks to Christian Dior, who harmoniously complemented the coat-dresses from the New look collection with this accessory. The idea was supported by Karl Lagerfeld, who already in the 60s developed a whole line of similar models. In the 80s, the scarf-collar is gaining more and more popularity, since this thing can easily be knitted even by an inexperienced needlewoman. In the 90s, the shirt-front is gradually losing ground to the stylish snood and only a few years ago it appears again in the adult and children's wardrobe.

Material
The ideal material for knitted bibs is semi-woolen yarn (for example, half acrylic). Wool is a natural raw material, it does not impede air circulation, it allows moisture to pass through and perfectly conserves heat, but it has one significant drawback - woolen things roll and stretch during wear. Acrylic additives prevent this.

![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/220-308/2016/12/sharf-vorotnik-udobnaya-manishka-42.jpg)
The shirt will be in contact with the delicate skin of your neck, therefore, in addition to wool, it will not be superfluous to pay attention to materials such as cashmere, angora, mohair. And as an additional component, viscose or polyester can become an alternative to acrylic.

How to choose?
- When choosing a comfortable bib, pay attention, of course, to the quality of the product - the density and composition of the yarn must correspond to the season.
- In addition, it is extremely important to choose the size of the product, because the collar scarf should sit tightly, neatly hugging the neck - in this case, it will reliably protect you from the cold. But even in too narrow a thing, you will feel uncomfortable.
- It should be noted that this accessory is especially suitable for those with a high neck. Otherwise, the shirt-front will not look at all advantageous - the chin will visually merge with the shoulders, especially for models made of thick yarn and large knitting.
- Choosing the color of the shirt front, be guided by your color type and think in advance with what you will combine it.

What to wear with?
A scarf-collar, made of fine fabric, in spring and summer will become an alternative to a blouse under a jacket, which is sometimes required by an office dress code. At the same time, observe the “rule of three colors”.
It is preferable to wear a knitted bib with woolen or knitted items. Also, this accessory will match a jacket made of corduroy, leather, tweed coat.

If you wear a one-piece shirt or a button-down model with a knitted blouse or pullover, then keep in mind that the type of knitting must be similar, otherwise the image may turn out to be ridiculous.
Warm options from thick yarn can be worn under a down jacket or parka. Winter fur shirt-fronts are usually combined with fur coats, just do not combine natural and artificial fur in one ensemble - this is tasteless. In addition, a fur collar scarf can turn an evening dress into a particularly stylish outfit, especially if the accessory is fastened with a brooch with precious stones.
