And the Gentleman Returns - The Pocket Square

Hello Loviessss,

Anyone who knows me well would tell you about my love for men's fashion. In today's post, we would be talking about a trend that says "I’m a guy who knows how to dress". 


Handkerchiefs can be made of cotton, cotton-synthetic blend, synthetic fabric, silk, or linen. When used as an accessory to a suit, a handkerchief is known as a pocket square.


Pocket squares make a difference, elevating the guy into a new level of sartorialism


The trend is known as “pocket squares”, "pocket handkerchiefs" “pochettes” or “hanks” 

Whether you are wearing a bow tie or a silk necktie, pocket squares add elegance and sophistication that harmonizes exceptionally well with your formal attire.



Nowadays pocket squares are a common fashion accessory throughout the world.It has become the mark of the GENTLEMAN. Whether you are invitied for a black tie event calling for a tuxedo and bow tie, or have a business meeting that requres a suit and tie, the pocket square adds elegance to your look.

Nevertheless, only few men choose to wear a pocket square, not because they don’t want to, but typically they don’t know how to match one, how to fold the pocket square, how to combine colors, or they simply don’t know what a pocket square can do for your outfit. 

A pocket square should not match your tie, although there may be some correspondence between the colours,”  when it comes to pocket squares, there is only really one inviolable law: “It’s not meant to look like a bunch of flowers bursting from your chest.

As always we have loads of pictures for you. Thanks for always reading.
