Easy Pocket Square Tutorial | Master the Scallop Fold with This 3-Min Guide

About this video

Centeno teaches how to fold and wear a pocket square using the Scallop Fold technique, which he presents as a softer, three-dimensional style suitable for special occasions. He covers the step-by-step folding process, placement in the jacket pocket, and styling considerations to achieve a polished appearance without appearing overly formal.

Key takeaways

  • The Scallop Fold creates a soft, three-dimensional shape that works well with sports jackets, casual suits, and patterned or brightly colored pocket squares
  • Centeno recommends adjusting the fold width to fit comfortably in the jacket pocket and tucking the pocket square behind the lapel rather than letting it spill in front for a cleaner look
  • Centeno advises aiming for a balanced amount of the folded pocket square to protrude from the pocket, avoiding extremes of too much or too little visibility
