How to Fold the Classic Pocket Square

About the Classic Pocket Square

Fit for any situation, the Classic fold is a simple, straightforward rectangle composed of layered edges. It is not essential to keep the edges symmetrical, in fact, allowing them to layer and fall naturally adds a lively nature to the fold. Using fabric with contrasting edges accentuates the fold and creates a more striking form.
