How to tie our Cravats... |
|
|
|
Our Silk Cravats
are the perfect wedding attire, for the groom, best man and
groomsmen. We can make our cravats to match the
colour of the brides wedding dress, or the bridesmaids or flower girl
dresses, or you can order them in a colour to complement the colour theme you
have chosen for your special day.
We custom-make our cravats to
order from our huge range of
fabric colours as shown on our
colour charts,
for a very sophisticated and coordinated look. If you need help
finding the perfect colour to match your bridesmaid dresses,
please use our
Colour-Matching
Service and we will do our very best to find that
perfect colour match. |
|
Our cravats are cut in such a way
that you can tie them in two styles: Traditional or Scrunch/Ruche
tie.
Just follow our guidelines below for either style.
|
|
|
 |
 |
 |
|
1. Drape the cravat around your
neck, longer end on your right.
|
2. Cross the longer end over the shorter
end, to your left.
|
3. Take the longer end back underneath
the shorter end.
|
4. Wrap longer end over the top again to
your left.

5. Take the longer end up through the
neck loop. Next, either follow step 6 or 7, depending which style
you choose.
|
6. For a 'Traditional' look: Fold down
the longer end over the knot, adjust fit with the shorter end and
fix top end in place with a cravat pin.
|
7. For 'Scrunch' or 'Ruche' tie, omit step
6. From step 5, bring the longer end down through the knot loop to get
that 'scrunched-up' effect.
|
8. Adjust fit with the shorter end
(underneath). Make
sure the knot is loose-ish to get the best effect.

The cravat shown in the images above
is in hand-woven silk dupion, shade 164, Lily.
