It looks like this fall you won’t get a throat ache because of amazing collars to cover it all up! While, the voluminous center spot of the outfit moved towards the upper part of the body (think big shoulders, neck) the collars play an important part of achieving that! Good news, because it’s easier to wear a huge scarf then, let’s say (last fall), a huge bubble skirt. See here some examples from this fall’s runways. Image credit: style.com.

I played a bit around with this top I’ve made from a dress, a while ago. It looks ok in the “cape” way it is now (1row, 1,2pic), but I plan on wearing it a bit otherwise this fall, using a belt (2row, 1,2pic). I know it sounds weird to wear a belt at your neck, but as long as you don’t have any frenemies, you’ll be safe, I promise. Also, using a safety pin, you can gather the fabric on one part and leave it flowing on the other, or just gather it in the back, to make it stay up a bit, covering your neck area (2row, 3,4pic)
On the “big scarves” trend [other than the Keffiyeh (just stumbled upon these pictures of David Beckham and Colin Farrell) here worn by me] some more, soon enough!

I love it as a ruffle!
