How is it the French woman can put on this sack-like outfit with a écharpe hanging to the floor and come off looking chic, soigné et avec du syle?

More traditional French neck adornment at nearby musée Carnavalet.

Here's the "double scarf" - one used as a shawl/cape base for the other twisted on top.
The "shawl" scarf on its own...
Just a touch of red scarf showing color co-ordinated to go with Laduree's green macaron cart at Galerie Lafayette...
Here the French scarf evolves into the casually knotted sweater neck adornment...
The scarf here color co-ordinated with the salade at Cojean...
