It’s officially summer, and bandanas and head scarves are having a moment. Whether for an afternoon at the farmer’s market or a day at the beach, hair accessories have come back with a silky, polka-dot, artisanal revamp. If you don’t have one already, here are ten that you might just “save to cart.” —Nicole Garbanzos
L’Appartment
From Vancouver, BC, L’Appartment was founded on the idea that style is something you figure out in your own space. The Nabinette Scarf does just that. Whether you’re going for boho chic or a cottagecore aesthetic, the nabinette accents enough to be super eye-catching.
Eliza Faulkner
Based in Montreal, the Polka Dot Headscarf from Eliza Faulkner is made from organic cotton and can be styled in several ways. Rooted in the idea of the bold feminine, the polka dots add personality, along with the butter yellow tone.
Odeyalo Clothing
Made with 100 percent cotton, this bandana from Odeyalo Clothing isn’t only great for a casual day out but also pairs with a dressier look or two. Coming in various colours, the blue stripes and ruffled edges give the bandana a playful feel, like you’d wear it with the brightest dress you own.
Le trunkshop
Versatile and compact, the Vacation Essentials Scarf from Le Trunkshop can be worn in any way, whether as a bandana, around the neck or as a bag accessory. Either way, it’s a great statement piece, even on the most casual of outfits.
Dora Nola
Founded by Manuela Jarry, Dora Nola houses accessories and apparel that thrive on expression and bold prints. Like the Ombres et Parfums Turquoise cotton bandana, per se. It’s colourful and chic and would definitely add personality to a beach look or to brunch with the girls.
Wilde and Sparrow
Located in Parksville, BC, on Vancouver Island, Wilde and Sparrow is all about current, effortless and wearable clothing and accessories. The Pink Red Chevron Frida Cotton Bandana isn’t only fair-trade made, but also light, compact and handprinted with eco-friendly dyes.
Simons
Perfect for a Euro summer or a picnic by the lake, the Broderie anglaise scalloped scarf from Simons is the ultimate summer staple. Goes with any outfit and adds a touch of chicness too.
Blue Button Shop
Based in Toronto, the Blue Button Shop thrives on Japanese heritage and personal expression. Whether for a night out or a dinner on the patio, the Fastcolor Selvedge Bandana adds a trendy touch to both denim and silk looks.
Sezane
Leapoard print has been back since 2024, and the Gaston Scarf from Sezane does not disappoint. Either paired with a burgundy red two-piece or a black bodycon, it’ll definitely turn heads.
A Bronze Age
Handcrafted in Vancouver, BC, from deadstock fabric, the Francine Scarf from A Bronze Age is incredibly cutesy. Available in two other colours, its laced edges will manifest a tomato-girl summer and get you noticed all season long.
