What is a classic pocket square?

  • A classic pocket square is a small piece of cloth, typically made from silk, cotton, or linen, that is folded and placed in the breast pocket of a suit jacket or blazer. It serves both decorative and functional purposes, adding a stylish accent to formal wear while also being used to dab away perspiration or clean glasses.

How do you fold a pocket square?

  • There are several popular ways to fold a pocket square, including the classic fold, the puff fold, and the one-point fold. Each method offers a different look, from sleek and sophisticated to more casual and relaxed. Experimenting with various folds can help you find the style that best complements your outfit.

Can pocket squares be worn casually?

  • Yes, pocket squares can be worn casually to add a touch of flair to more relaxed outfits. Pairing a pocket square with a blazer and jeans or a casual shirt can elevate your look without being overly formal. Choosing lighter fabrics and playful patterns can enhance the casual vibe.

What colors are best for classic pocket squares?

  • Classic pocket squares often feature neutral colors like white, navy, or grey, which can easily complement a variety of suit colors. However, bolder colors and patterns can also be effective for making a statement or adding a pop of color to your ensemble. The best choice depends on the occasion and your personal style.

Are pocket squares the same as handkerchiefs?

  • While pocket squares and handkerchiefs may appear similar, they serve different purposes. Pocket squares are primarily decorative accessories meant to enhance a suit or blazer, while handkerchiefs are typically used for practical purposes, such as wiping hands or faces. Pocket squares are often made from finer fabrics and are designed to be displayed rather than used for utility.

How do I choose the right pocket square for my outfit?

  • When selecting a pocket square, consider the colors and patterns of your suit or blazer. A pocket square can either match your tie for a coordinated look or contrast it for a more dynamic style. Additionally, think about the occasion; simpler designs work well for formal events, while bolder patterns can be fun for less formal gatherings.
