Guy Friday: Pocket Squares Add Panache

February 13, 2008 by HeFindsEd

What: Ermenegildo Zegna’s pocket square because its geometric pattern is modern, understated, and versatile for several suit colors and tie styles.

Here are a few tips for pairing pocket squares with ties and suits:

•    If wearing an abstract patterned tie with many colors, keep the square simple with two colors (one of which is in the tie) and a subdued, repetitive pattern.•    With patterned suits, like houndstooth or windowpane, stick with a solid square in a bright color.•    For patterns, keep the square fresh with stripes, geometric shapes, and tight floral prints (no paisley, please!).•    And absolutely no tie/pocket square sets—it does not communicate confidence.

Get Yours:
