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.
