You can add a belt over it if you wanted a really cinched in look. The waist is finished with elastic so it is incredibly easy to wear. Each end of the scarf ends with a two color silk fringe that I love. It is set so that one side is longer then the other so that when you tie it is sits properly.

It does up along the neckline to one side and buttons to close.
