Before discovering Fort Belvedere, I had struggled to find high quality, elegant boutonnieres. Since then I've bought several and - although I like all of them - the Edelweiss boutonniere is the one that I find myself wearing most frequently. Because of it's subtle coloring, it is easy to combine and its asymmetric pattern makes it look very natural. Every time I wear this boutonniere, I get compliments. Well done, Fort Belvedere, on developing this wonderful product!

Why You Should Wear a Boutonniere

A boutonniere is the epitome of refined grace in menswear and, like the icing on a cake, is a detail that makes a huge impact on the rest of your outfit. There's a reason that superbly dressed gentlemen from all walks of life, including royals, statesmen, and stars of stage and the silver screen during the Golden Age of Menswear were often seen sporting these elegant accessories. Gentlemen of style such as Edward the Duke of Windsor, King Charles III, John F. Kennedy, Douglas Fairbanks, Maurice Chevalier, Clark Gable, and Fred Astaire all made boutonnieres a prominent component of their style and is one reason that even decades after their deaths, these men are still renowned for their sartorial sense and debonair presence.

Although nowadays often associated with weddings, a lapel buttonhole flower is perfectly suitable for both day and evening wear during any season. Whether paired with suits, blazers, morning dresses, or evening clothes like a velvet jacket, tuxedo, or tailcoat, boutonnieres make a marvelous impression in the spring, summer, fall, or winter. And, of course, a gorgeous boutonniere is the perfect accessory for once-in-a-lifetime occasions like graduations, big promotions, birthdays, and anniversaries.

Dark Red Velvet Spray Rose

Size: About 2" or 5 cm diameter.

Although roses are among the most popular flowers, most are not suited for boutonnieres because they are too big and their stem is too thick and inflexible. On the other hand, smaller spray roses suit a lapel much better and the stem allows for bending.

If you want to add a dash of color to your black-tie outfit, add a dark red spray rose to your outfit if you don't like the size of a Carnation. While not as bold as a red carnation, it still stands out in an elegant way from your white shirt front. Apart from that, the dark red spray rose works great with tweed and sports coats due to its warm color.

Always fresh and ready whenever you need them, this cotton velvet boutonniere lapel flower pin provides your outfit with the finishing touch you were looking for. Unlike our other rose lapel flower pins, this one has a gorgeous velvety texture that makes it look even more real than our other roses.

Gorgeous Silk as Beautiful as the Real Thing

The incredibly lifelike appearance of our boutonnieres depends upon sourcing only the finest raw materials for each flower. All of our roses begin as bolts of pristine, fine white silk, the thickness of which is selected to mirror the petal width of the desired flowers.

One out of over 100,000 metal dyes is then used to cut out the shape of the flower from the silk. Each dye-cut piece is then individually and painstakingly painted by hand by a skilled German artisan. Only Flora, the Roman goddess of flowers, takes comparable care in crafting such beautiful creations.

The cuts are then shaped and given volume on special metal molds. Additional details are added as needed and the flower is then attached to its wire stem. The result? A boutonniere as beautiful as the real thing but that will never wilt.

The Benefits of a Handmade Boutonniere

While a fresh, genuine boutonniere is lovely to see, few florists today can cut them correctly, and even properly prepared real boutonnieres will inevitably wilt. To change this, Fort Belvedere developed a growing collection of boutonnieres that are finely crafted by hand to appear genuine and authentic, but will never wilt and will always look as vibrant as if they were freshly cut flowers!

Care

To prevent damage to its delicate petals, do not crush, flatten, or roughly handle your boutonniere.
Avoid placing anything on top of your boutonniere that could flatten, crush, or press on the petals or the shape of the flower.
When wearing your boutonniere, do not incessantly bend or twist the wire stem. This contributes to excessive wear and can cause the wire and stem to break apart.

Storage

For safe storage, we recommend keeping your boutonniere in the Fort Belvedere gift box it came in, which have been specially designed to keep your boutonniere safe.

How to Put on a Boutonniere

Locate the lapel buttonhole on your jacket. Be aware that it may be loosely sewn shut. If your jacket has a purely decorative lapel buttonhole, you will need to have it made functional by an alterations tailor.
Insert the wire stem of the boutonniere through the lapel buttonhole. Secure it to the back of the lapel with a keeper loop or a safety pin.
Adjust your boutonniere from the front to ensure it sits evenly and elegantly in your lapel buttonhole.

What makes this silk rose boutonniere from Fort Belvedere so special?

A fresh flower in a lapel buttonhole, traditionally referred to as a boutonniere, has been the hallmark of elegant gentlemen for centuries. Unfortunately, quality examples of this unique accessory are becoming increasingly difficult to find, and where they can be found, real flowers will inevitably wilt.

Therefore, Fort Belvedere set out to create a range of gorgeous boutonniere flowers that are beautiful to behold but safe from the ravages of wilting. Delicately handmade in Germany from authentic luxury fabrics, these boutonnieres appear genuine even when viewed up-close, but are actually fabric and will never fade, wilt, or die.

With a Fort Belvedere boutonniere in your buttonhole, compliments are sure to come your way! And with considerable savings for bulk purchases, you will be amazed at how quickly your garden can grow: the more you spend, the more you save!

Details & Specs

Authentic Natural Apperance

Most artificial boutonnieres can immediately be recognized as phony flowers from a distance and seem waxy and overdone when viewed up close. With great attention to subtle details, Fort Belvedere boutonnieres are carefully crafted and rigorously tested to ensure that they appear genuine and natural even in close proximity.
Custom Dyes & Handmade Quality

The secret to why this boutonniere seems so life-like is its quality construction. Highly customized coloring ensures that every flower perfectly matches its natural shade, and hand-dying of the silk petals guarantees a believable, organic appearance that can only be achieved by the attentive hand of a master craftsman.
Proper Buttonhole-Wear Construction

To cut costs, most modern boutonnieres are designed to be stuck in place with a pin. This clunky hardware looks positively disgraceful when compared to a proper boutonniere elegantly slipped into a buttonhole. Fort Belvedere boutonnieres are designed to be worn this way, just like real flowers were worn during the Golden Age of Menswear.
Correctly Sized & Proportioned

Too often, cheap boutonnieres are oversized due to the belief that “bigger is better”. This makes them look fake and overwhelms the entire ensemble. A tastefully sized boutonniere, however, will not only appear more natural but also afford a greater styling potential, as it can be worn with a pocket square without appearing excessive. It's for this reason that smaller boutonnieres were always favored by men of taste.
Secure Treaded-Write Stem

Unlike other boutonnieres fixed on static pins or bars, Fort Belvedere boutonnieres have been designed with a threaded wire stem that allows for flexibility and improved positioning. This allows you to adjust the bloom to your taste, just like with a real flower, but with considerably improved positioning and range of motion.
Enduring Investment

Unlike real flowers, Fort Belvedere boutonnieres do not wilt. When properly cared for they will look as fresh as when they first arrived even after several years. Each boutonniere comes in a signature green Fort Belvedere gift box. It's the perfect way to store your boutonnieres.
