Never Uncool with a Cravat There’s a particular fear many men have before trying a cravat for the first time. Not the tying itself. Not the colour. Not even the possibility of being called “sir” by someone younger than them in a coffee shop. The modern concern is far worse than that; “What if I look… unc?” Gen Z Will Destroy You For those blissfully unfamiliar with Gen Z terminology (and we apologise for educating you on it) “unc” is what you become when you’re a little out of touch. When the younger generation decides any display of maturity, confidence or distinction marks you out as tragically, unsaveably ancient. Belonging to Gen Z, it can of course be anything from...
A wedding is a beautiful occasion and a huge celebration, and as such is an absolute logistical nightmare, demanding more organisation than you can believe. In all seriousness, if you’ve ever been married or been in close proximity to a wedding being planned, it’s astonishing how many moving parts there are. It’s also the reason we have so many professions dedicated to it - wedding dress designers, cake decorators, entertainers, florists etc. Indeed we even have wedding planners, whose entire job it is to wrangle all of these artists into some sort of order!

British Tailoring has probably already conjured an image in your mind’s eye. But how did it become such a clearly defined style? Whether we like it or not, modern fashion is a globalised, borderless business, with design often happening in one place, manufacturing in another, using materials from somewhere else entirely.

Standing alongside those two giants is perhaps the one that has the most codified visual language of all; Classic British Tailoring. In our own ranges, we often speak of classic British design and are proud to boast...
The internet is full of style tips that simply aren’t relevant to a lot of people. We’re not advocates of fast fashion, looksmaxing or of telling you what to do here at Cravat Club. However, with fashion often being seen as a woman’s game, and men as merely background players, we’d like to offer a challenge to the orthodoxy. Men’s fashion is as varied, complex and baffling as it is for women, and it comes with many pitfalls and societal expectations, some of which seem designed to trip you up. To help equip our stylish readers with some base notes, here are fifteen things we think every man needs to have in their wardrobe. While not every single garment mentioned...
As the seasons begin to shift and the days grow longer, spring offers the perfect opportunity to breathe new life into your wardrobe. Lighter layers, brighter tones and distinctive accessories have a chance to come into their own, as the necessity of dressing against the weather starts to recede, In this newly warmed landscape, we think you'll find nothing enhances a look quite as completely as a beautifully crafted silk cravat.
