Rosettes Are The Shape Of The Season & You Can Get The Look With Nothing But A Scarf
With everything in bloom, it's likely that your wardrobe is also going through a transformation as we enter into the blossoming beauty of springtime. The essence of the season brings us a revival of a certain floral accessory that sure does make a pop. Rosettes are the fabric flower you didn't know you needed in your life and luckily, creating one is super simple. You likely recognize the bunched rose from various eras of the past and we are stoked to see the classic rosette making the rounds of the fashion world on TikTok.
From dresses to bags to floral chokers, the rosette trend is budding and is as versatile as the possibilities of spring. It brings with it a flirty, fun romance we just can't get enough of. Here's a closer look at the shape of the season and how you can recreate the iconic, rosy look with nothing but a scarf.
Start with a simple silk scarf
While you may be seeing rosettes featured on spring lines just about everywhere you look, you can also easily make your own rosette choker with a square or rectangular silk scarf. Tutorials of the DIY look can be found up and down TikTok, like this one from @sevenagh, who makes it look absolutely seamless and chic. It may take a few tries to perfect the knotting and tying of a silk rosette, but the results are sure to be worth it.
There are a few different routes you can take to make your own rosette choker, but one of the simplest ways is to take a longer silk scarf, place it around your neck, and twist the two ends together around one another. Next, you'll wrap or coil the twisted fabric on top of itself — just like you would when putting your hair in a bun. Finally, you can tuck the ends of the scarf into the fabric around your neck and you have your very own rosette (via Knot Just A Scarf).
Style your rosette
The rosette can be dressed up or down and is the perfect play on the carefree, warm weather vibe we are all beyond ready for. The rosette adds dimension and texture to any outfit and is ideal for both upscale occasions and casual, springtime dinners with friends. For a more dramatic effect, you can opt for an oversized rosette worn perched on the shoulder or even attached at the hip of a flowy dress. Scrunched, gathered fabric is the ideal backdrop for a rosette and the look totally encapsulates the spring 2023 energy we want to embody.
You can go big and wear multiple rosettes at once — choker, bag, and dress. Otherwise, centering a single rosette as the highlight of an otherwise quieter outfit works too. The classic elegance of the rosette is sure to make its return over and over and is a great way to begin building your spring capsule wardrobe. We can't really get enough of the springtime beauty the rosette emanates.
