How to Style This Pocket Square

This pocket square features on its body a colorful oversized double paisley pattern and linear edge detailing in high contrast white. As such, it can effectively be styled in three different ways depending on your chosen pocket square fold. A fold that emphasizes the border of the pocket square, like a banker's fold, will present the simple yet refined contrast between the body color and the white edge. A fold that highlights the body of the pocket square, such as a puff fold, puts the unique twin paisley motif on full display. Finally, a fold that incorporates both elements of the pocket square, like the Upside-Down Puff, showcases both elements for a very dapper look.

Twice the Paisley, Twice the Fun

This unique pocket square puts a new spin of classic paisley. Rather than featuring a traditional repeating design, we opted to present just two paisley figures, rendered in exquisite and minute detail that will make you marvel at every stitch.

This pocket square consists entirely of cool tones, with a violet body and purple, lilac, and green detailing on the two paisley figures. The inclusion of a plain white high contrast border creates another zone of styling depending on your preferred pocket square fold. 

With its bold figuration and pastel colors, this pocket square is ideally suited to warm or hot weather and casual ensembles, although it can be dressed up with a more formal ensemble if desired. We like to still it with medium or light tones jackets in gray, blue, or shades of off-white; if your jacket has a subtle patterned fabric, all the better! 

When planning color coordination options with accessories like neckwear or socks, consider dove gray, lilac, lavender, turquoise, mint green, cream, coral, or any shade of yellow. We suggest keeping this colors light and fun, with an emphasis on pastels.

Sensational Silk

Silk, the epitome of luxury and sophistication, has long been revered as a symbol of elegance and status. When it comes to crafting pocket squares, silk stands unparalleled in its exceptional qualities. As a natural fiber that is both incredibly strong and astoundingly delicate, silk imparts on pocket squares a unique edge, allowing them to hold their shape beautifully when folded without losing their soft, supple texture.

The lustrous sheen of silk catches the light in a way that no other fabric can, providing a subtle glimmer that adds depth and dimension to your outfit. It's this radiant quality that makes silk pocket squares a perfect accent piece for formal attire; they suggest a sense of refinement and attention to detail that complements a well-tailored suit or tuxedo.

The rich, vibrant hues that silk holds are another reason why it is such an extraordinary material for pocket squares. Silk fibers take on dyes with an unmatched intensity, resulting in colors that are deep, saturated, and remain vivid over time. Whether it's the boldness of a bright red or the subtlety of a pastel blue, a silk pocket square can be the centerpiece that brings life to a monochromatic ensemble or the harmonious touch that ties together various elements of your attire.

Finally, the tradition and craftsmanship behind silk weaving add an intangible value to silk pocket squares. They are not merely accessories; they are heirlooms, tokens of artistry passed down through generations. To own and wear one is to carry on a legacy of artisanal skill and timeless style.

Storage

Although popularly considered a delicate material, silk and silk-wool blends are a very strong fiber that resists wrinkling. However, if left folded up for hours or days, creasing and wrinkles will eventually set in.

To prevent creasing and wrinkling, remove your pocket square when undressing and fold it into a square before storing it in a cool, dark area, like a drawer or cabinet, to protect it from sunlight and dust.

Pressing

If heavily crumpled, you should first attempt to use a garment steamer on a low setting to relax the wrinkles.

If the wrinkles persist, place a cotton cloth on top of your pocket square and then iron on top of it around the center, using the delicate setting.

Do not run the iron over the edges of the pocket square as this will damage the hand-rolled edges.

Cleaning

If your pocket square should become stained or dirty, do not wash it by immersing it in water. Instead, create a solution of tepid water and mild detergent and spot clean the pocket square with a clean cloth as needed.

If the stain persists, take your pocket square to a reputable dry cleaner that specializes in the handling of delicate fabrics.

What makes this summery silk pocket square from Fort Belvedere special?

Pocket squares are one of the easiest and quickest ways to improve the overall look of your outfit, but it all depends on the elegance, timelessness, and versatility of the pocket square: not all are created equal!

While most pocket squares are made from cheap synthetics in simple colors or garish designs, Fort Belvedere sourced the fabric for this design from a heritage English mill and formulated a unique double paisley motif with white high contrast edge in versatile colors that affords you countless dapper styling opportunities.

While other pocket squares have their hems finished by machines, all of our pocket squares are meticulously hand-rolled, with the embroidery work done by hand. Most significantly, nearly all other pocket squares are too small because they are simply cut to get the biggest yield from the piece of fabric it is made off.

At Fort Belvedere we determine the size of each square by the specific fabric used so you end up with the perfectly sized pocket square that will neither disappear in your chest pocket nor create any bulk.

A pocket square cannot improve your look if it vanishes into your pocket or spoils the lines of your jacket, after all!

  • Organic Paisley Pattern

    The paisley pattern, a droplet-shaped motif with a curved upper end, has a history as rich and intricate as its design. Although named for the Scottish mill town of Paisley, its roots go all the way back to Persia. First popularized in the West during the 18th and 19th centuries, the paisley pattern is prized for its timelessness, versatility, and unique visual appeal, adding an organic flourish to any ensemble.

  • Perfectly Sized for Silk

    The vast majority of pocket squares are sized to get the largest number of pocket squares per yard of fabric. By not considering the unique qualities of the material as related to weight and weave, however, these accessories cannot function well as pocket squares.

    Most silk pocket squares are 30 cm x 30 cm, or 12” x 12.” This size is dictated by the desire to save money, and the resulting pocket square is simply too small, because without added structure the smooth surface of silk will easily slip down and disappear into your pocket.

    By paying special attention to the unique qualities of our silk, we were able to engineer a pocket square that functions perfectly. After extensive testing, we concluded that 40 cm x 40 cm or 15.5" x" 15.5" was the perfect size for our silk pocket squares.

  • Heavy Weight Silk for Improved Drape

    The weight and weave of the fabric dictate its quality and function, and this unique pocket square has been woven with a heavier-weight fabric to ensure the perfect drape without compromising its soft feel. As a result, it will sit neatly in the breast pocket without collapsing and vanishing.

  • Stunning Hand-Printed Colors

    When printing pocket squares, it is necessary to reprint the entire pocket as many times as there are colors, adding each color as a distinct layer with each printing. Obviously, multiple printings allow for the possibility of errors or mistakes, necessitating exacting quality assurance standards. The result, however, is a hand-printed pocket square with beautiful and versatile colorways that will ensure that you stand out from the crowd. Only a handful of modern silk printers possess the skills needed to operate traditional silk screens and Fort Belvedere sources its fabric from a heritage English company that produces only the highest quality printed fabrics.

  • Three-in-One Styling Options

    Because this pocket square has two discreet patterns, it offers three unique styling options based on the utilized fold: you can display all of one section or the other in a shell or banker’s square fold or a combination of both with an inverted fold-like the upside-down puff fold. The result? A single pocket square that can be styled like three different pocket squares.

  • Meticulously Hand-Rolled Edges

    Although an expensive and time-consuming process, the edges of this Fort Belvedere pocket squares have been rolled by hand to ensure a neat and sophisticated look, in contrast to machine-made edges that are obviously so flat and regimented that they appear cheap. This edge treatment also improves the durability and longevity of the pocket square as it reinforces the areas of most regular wear and tear.
