00:00 White Pocket Square Introduction

The white pocket square is a subtle yet sublime menswear accessory. But even though it’s small and simple, it can be the perfect accent piece to finish an outfit.

02:33 History of Pocket Square

In antiquity, nobles from Babylon to Egypt and Greece to Rome were known to carry squares of fabric on their person. These were usually dipped in perfume or fragrant oils to help mask unpleasant odors, similar to how one might use a sachet.

A cloth was also commonly carried by people of all stations to mop up a sweat or other messes. It didn’t become a fashion accessory in the West until the late 14th century.

What Makes A Good Pocket Square?
Overall, a good pocket square will hold folds well, sit attractively and securely in the pocket, and remain looking elegant while doing so. The most important factors are material and size for retaining shape and position, so we’ll cover those.

Where to Wear Your Pocket Square
A white pocket square can, of course, be worn literally anywhere you’re going to wear a jacket, from the least to most formal of occasions. But, subtle components are going to change from occasion to occasion.

22:28 2. Office Settings
23:00 3. Semi-Formal
23:25 4. Black Tie
23:46 5. White Tie

As a general rule, you’re probably going to want to pay between $40 and $80 US dollars for a quality pocket square. Anything under $15 will probably be made from inferior materials, and anything under $30 or so will probably lack finer points of detailing.
