  • Superlative English-Made Silk
  • Fabric Made in England
  • Perfectly Sized for Pockets
  • Arrives in Handsome Gift Packaging

I have received a staggering amount of compliments on this pocket square! I made the mistake of buying a top Italian designer pocket square that is only half the size of this one, and cost twice as much. Needless to say, I will only be buying Fort Belvedere pocket squares from this point forward. The colors are vibrant, and it is easy to pair with secondary colors.

Product Info

Colorful Paisley and Gorgeous Silk

  • Crafted from 100% English-Made Silk
  • Hand Printed by Heritage English Artisans
  • Gorgeous Oversized Paisley Detail
  • Brilliant Vibrant Colorways
  • Perfectly Sized for Your Lapel Pocket
  • Traditional Handrolled Edges
  • Three Ways to Style It

How to Style This Pocket Square

This pocket square features on its body a colorful oversized paisley motif pattern and linear geometric edge detailing. 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 edge. A fold that highlights the body of the pocket square, such as a puff fold, puts the unique 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.

An Incredible Union of Colors

This pocket square features a gorgeous melody of unique colors. The violet base is augmented with an oversized paisley design in green and pink, which emphasizes its floral origins, and an extended pattern in orange, green, blue, and dull yellow. All rendered in exquisite detail, the result is like a tapestry decorating the walls of the Alhambra.

The colors of this pocket square have been selected with versatility in mind. Violet is a relatively unique color in contemporary menswear, so we afforded lots of simple opportunities for coordination by introducing the more common colors of yellow, blue, and green. As such, you'll have no trouble integrating this pocket square into your wardrobe.

When selecting the colors for your other accessories, like socks, a boutonniere, or neckwear, consider employing colors like gray, white, pale yellow, olive green, mint green, dusty pink, teal, and turquoise.

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 silk pocket square from Fort Belvedere so 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!

The beautiful oversized paisley design on this pocket square immediately sets it apart as something fun and unique, a stylish new approach to a timeless classic.

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 paisley motif in fun, versatile colors that affords you countless dapper styling opportunities.

Although 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!

Details & Specs

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
