70's Style Headscarf
We waste nothing at LBW! After re-working our vintage Lee kick flare jeans with their psychedelic floral insert, we had some remnants left over and had the idea to make a couple of headscarves. All our fabric is vintage, sustainability is key to making our brand unique.
We took them on a recent shoot and they were a big hit, if you love seventies like us I think you’ll agree they complete the look perfectly!

How to make your own headscarf :
Our dimensions are as follows;
Length – 135 cm
Width – 14cm
(Seam allowance 1cm)
- Cut a rectangle to those measurements, with a fold one side
- Fold your rectangle and pin sides together (pins should be about every 5cm)
- Stitch both corners leaving a gap of about 10cm in the middle
- Turn through, making sure your corners are nice and neat
- Hand stitch the gap in the middle
- Iron
So simple and a great addition to your outfit, instead of chucking that piece of clothing away think first if it can be turned into something you’ll treasure.
Happy sewing!
