Handkerchiefs
How to fold a Pocket Handkerchief
Begin by laying your handkerchief flat and fold in half to create a rectangle. Fold again to create a small square and the turn the square so one of the corners are facing you. From here, grab the right-hand corner and fold it over so the tip of the corner is placed just past the centre of the shape. Fold the left corner to the right to create a cone. Fold the bottom corner upwards at the back and finally place in your pocket with the peak pointing towards the sky.
What is the Purpose of a Pocket Handkerchief?
Although pocket handkerchiefs can be used for personal hygiene purposes, they are mostly considered an accessory. If worn correctly, a pocket handkerchief should incorporate a dash of colour into your suit ensemble. Your handkerchief should not match the colour of your tie.
