You can tell a lot about a man from his choice in suit. Not just the way it is tailored; not only the choice of cut, fabric or colour; not simply the way that just enough cuff sits on this shoes. It's the little adornments that make the suit. Attention to detail can be very expressive. A nice tie should be a given with a formal suit, but when it comes to pocket squares they can add style, personality and charisma.
A pocket square worn with an open-necked shirt can add style to a classic casual look. From the traditional to the contemporary, the vibrant to the refined, our collection of printed pocket squares are the ideal way to add a little character to both formal and casual wear.
