If a man follows fashion trends, he will not miss this new trend. Ties are being replaced by a decent alternative - men's neckerchiefs. With their help, you can make the image more complete and stylish. This accessory is especially popular among creative natures, but in general, the fashion for them only increases every day.
Appearance story
Even in ancient paintings, the warriors of Rome were depicted with this accessory, but then it was the subject of clothing, and not the addition of a stylish image. Later, Louis XV issued a decree according to which men's neck scarves were required to be worn not only by representatives of the nobility at court, but also by ordinary citizens. In the XVIII century, this item of clothing became the rule of good taste.
Varieties of neckerchiefs
Models differ not only in color, but also in fabric, size and cut.
- The classic model is Ascot men's neckerchiefs. Initially, they were worn only during gala receptions and events. To fix the fabric, pearl brooches and safety pins were used. Classic shawls are always present in the wardrobe of connoisseurs of modern fashion.
- Over time, French fashion designers developed their own model - a fular. Its distinctive features are cut, length and method of tying. This men's neckerchief under a shirt is wrapped around the neck, and the ends are fixed with knots and special pins. The color scheme is the brightest shades with various geometric and floral patterns.
- The Plastron model covers both the man’s neck and chest, and the extended ends taper towards the middle. This variety of scarf is especially popular for a wedding look.
How to choose a scarf?
For supporters of the classic style of clothing, a light, preferably plain, man’s neckerchief is suitable. Photos of elegant samples of this accessory emphasize that bold colors do not look defiant at all, but rather complement the image of a confident gentleman. Connoisseurs of comfort should pay attention to models made of natural fabrics - they will not only complement the image, but also warm in cool weather. There are several unmistakably winning combinations: a shawl of purple shade will fit a dark blue suit, possibly with patterns. Blue color will also look no less attractive. Remember that a white scarf on the neck is the perfect complement to any look. Modern designers offer to combine men's scarves with t-shirts and trousers. And Jean-Paul Gaultier added a bright polka dot neck scarf to the classic costume .
Main nodes
Ways to tie a neckerchief closely overlap with specific models. So, to tie the Ascot knot, overlap the ends of the scarf on the chest, place the right end under the left and pull it through the neck ring. Lay the resulting knot behind the shirt knot, and leave the two top buttons of the shirt open.
Men's neckerchiefs of classical cut are tied a little differently: cross the ends on the chest, wrap the right one behind the left, round the left with the right end and lay behind it, and then pass through the ring. Place the ends of the neckerchief behind the vest and secure with a pin.
