Getting your tie and pocket square right shows people you take pride in what you look like and that you dress properly and with care.

This is a symbol of self-respect and to those around you. Getting it wrong will make you look like a novice.

Knowing how to match ties with pocket squares is an important skill any aspiring dapper gentleman should have.

One question that is often asked is whether your tie and pocket square should match.

The short answer to that is NO.

Even though it can seem an easy way to organize your

outfit, in modern dress, matching your pocket square with tie or bow tie is a definite NO￾NO.

The purpose of the pocket square, instead, is to complement the rest of your look: either by harmonizing your other accessories or contrasting with them.

While I understand that some shops do sell matching tie and pocket square sets, if you want to be seen on top of your style game, I RECOMMEND you steer clear of these.
