How to tie our Cravats...

Our Silk Cravats are perfect wedding attire, for the groom, best man or ushers, or for any special occasion. We can match our cravats to the colour of a brides wedding dress, or 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.

Our cravats are custom made to order from any of our vast range of shades as shown on our colour charts, for a very sophisticated look that can be colour-matched to any wedding colour theme or colour of your choice. Need help finding the right colour? See our Colour-Matching Service.



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 underneath end. Make sure the knot is loose-ish to get the best effect.
