POCKET SQUARES
 

 


A pocket square may be considered a relatively minor accessory, but it is hardly insignificant. There is perhaps no easier opportunity to add some dash to an ensemble than to casually drop in a quality pocket square. Over the last few decades, men have lost a bit of confidence to wear a square,  but the key to stuffing a hank is to not think about it too much (or at least to create the impression of not having thought about it too much).

Be careful to avoid closely matching your tie – the aim is to complement your attire, not coordinate it.  A pocket square should appear unstudied, un-primped, almost an afterthought, effortlessly contributing to your overall aplomb.  Like a good haircut, the best-folded squares are those that do not draw attention to themselves.
