| Video Discription | How To Tie An Ascot & Cravat: https://gentl.mn/2i19iLE How To Wear Ascots & Cravats The Elegant Way: https://gentl.mn/2zyWN0N How To Tie a Four in Hand Knot: https://gentl.mn/2k9IYDt What's the difference between a formal ascot and a casual ascot? One thing that stands out immediately is the shape. The formal Ascot is quite wide and has a slim band that's consistent in the middle which is something that will be around your neck. Basically, it has the same shape on both ends. A casual ascot is similar in the shape, however, it usually has a kind of folded neckband which is worn around the neck. The other difference is that a casual ascot is just silk and there's no interlining. On the other hand, a proper formal Ascot is much stiffer because you want it to hold a shape and a fold of the knot you want. because of that, it's silk with the interlining which makes it thicker and more robust in terms of keeping its shape. Another important distinction is that the casual ascot is worn inside of your shirt and it pops up from underneath your unbuttoned top shirt collar and the formal daywear ascot is worn in the way you can see here right now, it is more on the outside of the shirt and it is perfectly worn with a wing collar. So how do you tie it? You pull the right side slightly longer about three to four inches or seven and a half to 10 centimeters. Now the right side is folded over the left side and then brought up through the hole that you just created in the back. Now the part that you just pull through should be in your right hand and the other part should hang straight down. Now you take the part that just hangs down with your left hand and point it to your right. Subsequently, you take the piece in your right hand and you just pull through and fold it over so now it points downwards. Once you're done with that, you take the point that hangs down vertically and bring it up through the loop you just created from underneath. Once we got it through the hole, you pull firmly on both ends of the formal ascot. You can adjust the knot a little bit and you can see it creates a horizontal knot with some wrinkles. Now ideally, you want to take the item on the left and have it point to the right and the item from the right point over to the left. Basically, the two ends cross each other. Now that you have folded over both ends in an X shape, you can tuck them into your waistcoat, keep adjusting until you like the look. Now it's time for a tie stick pin. A tie stick pin is a simple pin that is decorative. The most traditional thing is maybe a pearl, but you can also have maybe a knot or any other kind of precious or semi-precious stone. The easiest way to find one is at vintage stores, flea markets, or on eBay. Now you want the decorative element of your tie stick pin to be exactly in the middle when you look at it from the front and about two to three maybe four inches below the knot. Don't have it too low and not too close to the knot. You can use the gorge of your morning coat lapel for a good indicator of where you want it to sit. If you're right-handed, hold the ascot up with your left and poke through the tie stick pin through the silk knot. Now that you poked through the silk, carefully poke it through the middle of your shirt fly and back out to the front. That way, the pointy end of the tie stick pin is against your skin, you won't hurt yourself, and it's on the top part of the fly. Not only is it a decorative item, but it also keeps your formal ascot in place all day no matter if you run, dance, or celebrate because your horse just won. SHOP THE VIDEO: 1.
