One of the most persistent questions we get is “How do I wear a pocket square”. Well, dear reader, we hate to break it to you, but there is more than one way to wear a pocket square. You know the routine. Big occasion, big outfit - reach into the wardrobe for something nice you would not normally wear. And while some of us are lucky to be born clothes horses, not all of us feel at home in smarter, more formal wear. So how to pull it off? Our answer to this might be counter-intuitive. You might think of pocket squares as a rarified garment, as something to break out only for the most demanding occasions. A wedding perhaps,...

But perhaps you think it's time to enliven your wardrobe a little, perhaps you want to show off a little imagination, a little personality? No need to throw out the whole lot - why not try a cravat to give your look a lift?...
The story behind our Aranami Design Based on traditional Japanese Irezumi (入れ墨) tattoos, this design features a powerful dragon emerging from the tempestuous waters below, surrounded by wildlife and lush vegetation. Aranami Navy Strength Gin The word Aranami (荒波) translates as "Raging Waves", and this piece was commissioned specially for the multi-award winning Hidden Curiosities Aranami Navy Strength Gin, featuring many of the Japanese botanicals used in the distillation. Irezumi & the Yakuza Long considered taboo owing to their association with the Yakuza, traditional hand-poked irezumi can take years to complete, and are only practised in their original form by secretive Horishi (彫師) masters to this day, with word-of-mouth often the only way to encounter them. Our stunning Aranami...
