Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is 1. The combination with a scarf or the like, kof Va `fastener for holding the same in place upon a collar, comprising a collar envgaging portion at one side freely engagcable over and shiftable about the collar, and a scarf engaging portion at the other side engageable with'thescarf at the under side so as to lie intermediate the outer surface of the collar and the said scarf under side, said scarf engaging portion having positive engagement with the scarf permitting of adjustment at will with respect to the scarf without displacement of the scarf.

2. The combination, with a neck scarf or similar article .of wear having one of its edges provided withy fastening means, of spaced holdingl members engageable over the usual collar upon the wearers shirt so as to hold the scarf at points at opposite sides of the neck, and means for adjustably connecting one of said members to the scarf fastening means Y aforesaid.
