Handkerchiefs

Set yourself apart from the crowd. For both men and women, using a vintage handkerchief is a great way to start.

A handkerchief is usually a block of fabric carried in the pocket for the purpose of cleaning the hands, face, and nose. Through the centuries since its inception, the handkerchief has evolved quite a bit, and nowadays, most people use handkerchiefs as a fashion accessory, as opposed to a functional item. Regardless it the purpose is practical or ornamental, handkerchiefs can be purchased at most clothing retailers, in a range of designs. They may also be handmade, employing materials you can find at fabric suppliers.

Today in this century the handkerchief has moved past its fundamental objective and has now turned into a cool and trendy fashion accessory for both men and women. In reality, it can be found in an assortment of fabrics, patterns and colors. It serves to accent men's attire, resting within the breast pocket of the sport coat or suit. For anyone who is dressing for a formal affair , a fine silk handkerchief, properly shaped in the correct style, is sure to add more glamor to one's visual appeal. Handkerchief folding is not simply about folding it and stuffing it inside the pocket. The variations by which they might be shaped are varied.

The next time you are looking to make a fashion statement over and beyond the norm, consider accessorizing with a beautiful vintage handkerchief.
