I'm Bringing Back A Classic Men's Accessory From The Golden Age (You Can Too!)
About this video
The Gazette team demonstrates how men can incorporate silk scarves into their classic style wardrobe, covering scarf selection, sizing, and multiple tying techniques. They present various folding and knotting methods—from simple drapes to the blazer knot, French knot, and oriental knot—showing how different scarf sizes and styles can be worn casually or formally, either tucked into jackets or as alternatives to traditional neckties.
Key takeaways
- The Gazette team argues that silk scarves have strong historical precedent in men’s fashion and can be styled as modern accessories when chosen with muted colors and larger patterns rather than overtly feminine designs
- The Gazette team recommends starting with larger scarves (47 inches square) as they offer more versatility and are easier to tie, while smaller scarves require different folding techniques like the boy scout roll
- The Gazette team teaches multiple knotting styles for different occasions—the blazer knot for elegance and security, the French knot for warmth, the oriental knot for adjustability, and simple drapes for casual wear
