Orange pocket square with a subtle woven texture.
How to wear it
- Wear a pocket square in your blazer's breast pocket, never in your shirt pocket.
- Let it show 1 to 3 cm from your pocket: a pocket square is an accent, not a handkerchief hanging out.
- Echo a colour from your tie or shirt in the pocket square — but never the same fabric and print as your tie.
- Silk and cashmere create a soft, relaxed fold; linen and cotton hold a crisp fold.
Do's
- Crisp fold for a suit at a formal occasion, relaxed fold for a blazer with jeans or chinos.
- A white linen pocket square always works: with any suit and any occasion.
- Feel free to wear a pocket square without a tie: it completes your look perfectly.
Don'ts
- No tie and pocket square as a ready-made set in the same print.
- No pocket square that extends so far it falls over your lapel.
- Don't use your pocket square as a handkerchief: that's what your trouser pocket is for.
How to fold it
Straight fold
Crisp and formal. The fold for a suit, a wedding, or a business meeting.
- Lay the pocket square flat and fold it in half.
- Fold it in half again, until it's just slightly narrower than your breast pocket.
- Fold the bottom edge up to the height you need.
- Tuck it into your pocket with a straight edge of approximately 1 cm showing above.
One point
Classic, with just a touch more character than the straight fold.
- Lay the pocket square flat as a diamond, with one point facing up.
- Fold the bottom point up to just below the top point: you now have a triangle.
- Fold the sides inward to the width of your breast pocket.
- Fold the bottom edge up and tuck it into your pocket, with the point facing up.
Two points
Festive. Beautiful at a wedding or a night out.
- Lay the pocket square flat as a diamond, with one point facing up.
- Fold the bottom point up, slightly to the side of the top point, so two points sit next to each other.
- Fold the sides inward to the width of your breast pocket.
- Fold the bottom edge up and tuck it into your pocket, with the points facing up.
Puff
Relaxed and soft. At its best with a silk pocket square, worn with a blazer without a tie.
- Gather the pocket square in the middle and let the points hang down.
- Make a loose ring with your other hand and pull the middle halfway through.
- Turn it around and tuck the points down into your pocket, with the puff facing up.
- Shape the puff with your fingers until it sits loosely and slightly irregular.
The Secret Language of the Pocket Square
In the nineteenth century, etiquette books introduced an actual pocket square language: with what you did with your pocket square, you could flirt without words. Whether anyone ever really used it this way, no one knows for certain — but it remains a charming story to share at a gathering.
- Across your lips — I'd like to get to know you.
- Brushing your cheek — I love you.
- Resting on your right cheek — yes.
- Resting on your left cheek — no.
- Twirling between your hands — you leave me cold.
- Laying across your shoulder — follow me.
- Neatly folded — I'd like to speak with you.
- Letting it drop — let's be friends.
- Wound around your index finger — I'm engaged.
- Wound around your ring finger — I'm married.
Nowadays, your fold says it all: a crisp fold speaks business and formality, points say celebration, and a puff says relaxed and creative.

How we handle reviews
The label ‘Verified purchase’ appears on reviews written via the review link from an order or receipt that included this item, sent in our email or accessed from your account. These reviews go online immediately.
We read all other reviews before they go online. We cannot verify whether the writer purchased the item, so these reviews do not receive a label.
Reviews with the label appear first, followed by the most recent. Older reviews come from our previous review system and carry the label they were given there.
Reviews written in a language other than this page are translated automatically. Under a translated review you can always show the original.
Every month, we draw 2× € 50,00 in credit among everyone who writes a review, whatever your rating. If your order or receipt is linked to an account, you'll receive 50 loyalty points once per order or receipt for your review, whatever score you give.
