Ascot Scarf Knot - Tying A Man's Scarf - How To Tie Scarves For Men - Wrap-Around Ascot
About this video
Centeno teaches how to tie two variations of the ascot scarf knot for men: the basic ascot and the wraparound or double ascot. He demonstrates the technique step-by-step, explains the scarf length requirements for each style, and discusses fabric and styling considerations for wearing these knots.
Key takeaways
- Centeno recommends using a medium-length scarf (at least 50 inches) with some bulk or texture for the basic ascot knot, and advises against silk for this style as it can appear too feminine
- The wraparound or double ascot requires a longer scarf (approximately 72 inches depending on build) and involves wrapping once around the neck before tying the ascot knot
- Centeno prioritizes function over appearance in scarf styling and suggests adjusting the knot for comfort; for the wraparound ascot, he notes you can use silk scarves if aiming to introduce color rather than provide warmth
