Hailey Bieber Is Bringing Headscarves Back For Summer 2024 & We're Here For It

Hailey Bieber wore a leopard print headscarf over her baseball cap at Coachella 2024, and now everyone is rocking the brilliant combo. While Bieber gave some updated traction to the headscarf trend, it's worth noting that Rihanna was actually the inspiration behind Bieber's fashion choice. The model posted an Instagram story of Rihanna rocking a Supreme baseball cap and blue scarf in 2017, and Bieber added the caption: "4ever the inspo." She's giving credit where credit is due.

What strikes us about Bieber's look is the perfect combination of styles and colors, particularly for summer 2024. Her leopard print scarf had vivid, red detailing, and her Fila Dad Cap was red with navy tones, proving that red is one of summer's hottest colors. Making the outfit even better, Bieber paired the cap and silk scarf with bold, gold earrings, showcasing the truth that bigger can definitely be better when it comes to earrings. Tying in the vivid tones of red, Bieber rocked a red lip, and the perfect red pout brought together the whole look. But what made Bieber's style stand out was the Renaissance of the silk scarf as a hair accessory. Others clearly found this stunning too, because silk scarfs are popping up all over the place, and we want in on this trend.

A silk scarf and braids make for fun, summer style

If you're in the mood for some summer boho energy, work a silk scarf into an easy braided look. Pull out a few front sections of hair and put them in small braids, tying them off with small, clear elastics. Feel free to add hair jewelry for added whimsy, then secure the rest of your hair into a low-fuss ponytail, and tie your scarf behind it. It couldn't be easier.

Channel the Riviera Chic trend with a silk scarf

The updated version of Quiet Luxury for 2024 is Riviera Chic. The trend is brighter and juicier, with citrus tones, gauzy silks, and sunny glamour, evocative of the French Riviera. Nothing taps into this spirit of decadence quite like an expertly wrapped scarf. Fold your scarf into a triangle and place it on your head. Take one end and wrap it once around your neck, connecting the two ends on one side of your neck to tie it securely. Keep some face-framing pieces of hair exposed at the front, and pair the look with sunglasses.

Work a scarf into your updo

An easy way to knock your updo out of the park is by incorporating a scarf. Secure your hair high on the head, keeping some tendrils and face-framing pieces loose — it makes the look so much more romantic. Starting from the back of your head, wrap the scarf around and tie it at the top of the head. If you need some extra grip (silk scarves can be slippery), hold the scarf in place with a few discrete bobby pins.

Silk scarves and sunglasses were made for each other

Evocative of Grace Kelly and old Hollywood glamor, the silk scarf is one of the most effortless ways to add deliberate style to a simple, summer outfit. Fold the scarf in half, then wrap it around your head, tying it loosely at the chin. Best of all, the added layer of a scarf adds sun protection to both your hair and scalp, so you're nailing the chic trend while protecting your hair from harsh summer rays.

Keep some strands of hair showing underneath your scarf

The dreamy appeal of the silk scarf is that it adds a layer of decorative beauty to any hair style. Once you've secured the scarf in place, play with your long strands of hair by pulling them to one side, or styling them on both sides of your shoulders. If you want to channel Rihanna and Hailey Bieber, pop on a ball cap over your scarf, so that you get the full effect of long, lustrous hair and the perfect combo of a scarf and cap.
