The fabric is soft, drapes well,ties beautifully, comfortable, cool feeling. Best of all, hides a less than perfect aging neck! Colours are beautiful. I bought the teal. It is lovely and I'm going back for the coral. Casually loop this around the neck, with a t-shirt, nice earrings, cute jacket, and jeans, it will really give you a chic stylish look. Especially nice with a pin on it.(I previously thought scarves like this were only for cool weather/winter until I tried it out) Highly recommend.
