5 Ways To Wear An Ascot | How To Tie An Ascot Cravat | Ascot Tie
About this video
Sacawa provides a comprehensive guide to wearing ascots, covering three different tying methods—the traditional knot, single knot, and four-in-hand—along with styling dos and don’ts. He demonstrates five contemporary outfit examples showing how ascots can elevate casual and business casual looks with sophistication and elegance, challenging the perception that ascots are exclusively formal or elitist.
Key takeaways
- Sacawa argues that ascots originated as a less formal alternative to neckties and can add polish to smart casual outfits without full formality
- Sacawa recommends the four-in-hand method as the preferred tying technique because it creates a stable knot and produces desirable volume at the neck
- Sacawa advises leaving the top button unbuttoned (or top two buttons for a more relaxed look) when wearing an ascot, and positioning it to either hide completely under the collar or peek out slightly based on personal preference
- Sacawa demonstrates that ascots should complement an outfit like a pocket square or necktie, pulling colors and elements together for cohesiveness
