The Power Pocket – THE male accessory and a nifty way to show you have a bit of style.
A pocket square is not just a bit of fabric, it’s a piece of art that will immediately invigorate a suit or jacket. And it’s one of the easiest and most stylish ways to accessorise an outfit.
Melanie Laslett, founder and owner of luxury accessories brand Laslett England says,
‘’Don’t underestimate the power of a pocket square to elevate your look, it doesn’t have to be a ‘showy’ statement, it’s more about adding a stylish finishing touch that completes your whole outfit. Less is more – let it peek out of the pocket.”
The printed pocket square is an easy way to express your individual style and has replaced the cumbersome tie, which many men don’t bother to wear to work anymore. It introduces a colourful accent that adds a layer of elegance and sophistication and can boost your confidence!
Melanie creates all the patterns so that the wearer has a unique piece which becomes their style signifier. Each pattern is engineered into the canvas of a square, framed by a border to complete the design and finished with a fine stitched edge. Crafted from 100% silk, the colour and detail shine through. An unexpected benefit is how versatile this accessory is, the nature of a colourful pattern means it can be worn with more than one suit or jacket in your closet.
So how to wear the pocket square?
‘’There is no absolute way you must wear it; a soft puff fold is the most effective for a printed pocket square and can be easily adjusted to display the colours and pattern as you wish. For style inspiration, check out this video by Eldred Grove on 10 different ways to wear the pocket square.”
A quality accessory is a wise investment for a wardrobe update. Introducing a burst of colour will lift your mood and bring some joy to your daily routine. The pocket square makes a thoughtful gift at any time of year. Each one comes in a signature red Laslett England presentation box, which is also an excellent way to store it.
If you’re going to choose ONE accessory to wear, make it the pocket square.
