How a man or woman uses accessories in his suit can be judged on some psychological features. In any case, people who are extroverted, creative, optimistic, tend to get out of a series of formal fashion. They are pleased to accept the conditions of new trends, which may well have an ancient history.
So, for example, a man’s neck scarf, despite the ancient Chinese and Roman roots, which received officiality and even binding in the time of Louis XIV, today is still considered an original addition to the male image. If two hundred years ago, the French or the British were obliged to wear neckerchiefs as attributes of a military uniform or official costume of the highest echelon of nobility, now not every man will decide to put on a man’s neckerchief for a business meeting or a festive evening. And in an informal setting, this accessory is rarely seen. But women will certainly appreciate this stylish masculine jewelry that gives a man a certain charm.
This is not to say that a man’s neckerchief is rich in options. Most often in the descriptions there are three names: ascot, fuller, plastron.
Ascot, the neckerchief that has gained the most popularity due to its simplicity. The name of the scarf came from the English village, in which races were regularly held, and men came in formal clothes with bandaged neck scarves. In those days, the ascot was a small triangular piece of rich silk fabric of soft colors, tied with a simple knot and fastened with a pin.
Today, the Ascot knot is often used for other types of men's neck scarves, as well as for short ties with the same name. Such ties are usually plain, with muted tones and an inconspicuous pattern.
To tie a scarf "Ascot", you need to throw it around the neck. The ends of the scarf are aligned, then one end is superimposed on the other and bent under it. Putting it into the throat ring, the ends of the scarf are aligned, straightened in width. They form small beautiful folds that are tucked under the shirt on the chest. The top button of the shirt remains unbuttoned. Ascot can be nailed with a pin.
Fular, a man’s neck scarf, was invented by the French. It was a meter-long piece of fabric ten centimeters wide. Wrapping it around the neck and securing the knot to the pin, you can put it on under a club jacket or cardigan. Moreover, the colors of this scarf are much brighter, and the drawings are more fun.
The third type of men's neck scarf - plastron - has a more complex cut, narrowed in the middle and flared to the ends. Today, it is often the plastron that becomes the decoration of the groom's wedding suit . This scarf gives elegance, style, elegance, and, to some extent, weight. At the base of the neck, the plastron is fixed with a pin or brooch.
How to tie a plastron headscarf nicely? Throw a scarf around the neck, arrange the ends on the chest in parallel, then cross. Lay the right end of the scarf behind the left, pass through the neck ring, align and align with the left end on the chest. Make a loop from the upper end, which is threaded below the bottom. Tighten the knot, straighten, cross the ends of the scarf, stab, tuck under the vest.
The listed types of male neckerchief are sewn, usually from silk. However, you can find neck scarves made of fine wool, which are tied in the style of an American cowboy.
A man’s neckerchief will replace a tie both in a business suit and in a wedding. It is worn under a shirt in combination with a classic suit, cardigan, leather or light jacket, jacket. It will be appropriate to decorate your image with a neckerchief at an informal meeting, while playing golf, on a country outing, while traveling.
