If the classic folds have been leaving you a bit bored, then this pocket square fold may just add the excitement to your suits and sports coats you have been looking for. A perfect blend of casual and eccentric, the so-called “2-Point Puff” will be just the right styling for your bright silk pocket squares. It is a fold best suited for slightly larger squares (at least 13″ x 13″) that are made from softer silk fabric. Here is how you create this fold:

Lay the pocket square flat. Make sure it doesn’t have any wrinkles or creases.

Pinch the center and pick up the pocket square.

Slide the pocket square through your other hand to “puff” the center that is pinched by your fingers.

Push down the center to create a looser “puff”.

Now turn the pocket square upside down so that the corners are facing up.

Pull out two of the outer tips so thy extend higher than the other corners.

Last, stuff the pocket square in your breast pocket. Finish styling it to make sure the tips face outwards from the puffed dome. That’s all.

The 4-point crown fold blends elegance with eccentric. It is a perfect fold for all solid colored pocket squares, especially those made from fine silk. It looks excellent when added to double breasted blazers, full suits, or even formal tuxedos. Here is how you create this fold:

Lay the pocket square flat.

Now fold one corner up to create two overlapping triangles.

Fold in one side to create the 3rd point that will be showing.

Next, fold over the opposite side. This creates the 4th point and the crown is complete.

This is what the 4-point crown fold looks like when complete before tugging it into your breast pocket.

Lastly tug the pocket square into your breast pocket so that all 4 points are showing. That’s all!

Since yesterday featured one of the most classic pocket square folds, I decided something a bit more flashy and exotic for today’s fold. Today I am featuring the so-called Catty Lily, an eccentric fold that is perfect for stiffer pocket squares made from linen, cotton, or thicker woven silk. It looks best with bright solid colored pocket squares. Here is how to create the fold:

Lay the pocket square flat.

Start rolling from one corner. Roll until you rolled up about 2/3 of the pocket square.

Hold the larger roll in place.

Now roll the opposite side under.

Roll all way way until you connect with the larger tube.

Last, tug your Catta Lily folded pocket square into your breast pocket. That’s everything!
