As the nights draw in and October brings an autumnal chill to the air, our thoughts turn toward the atmospheric, the mysterious, and the theatrical... While seasonal style often focuses on heavy wools and earthy tones, true style distinction lies in the details. This spooky season, we are looking beneath the lapel to showcase one of our most striking creations: The Gods & Demons Collection. Conceived by Cravat Club director Jennifer Lane in collaboration with Japanese artist Yusuke Aoki, this series of silk pocket squares draws deep from the well of traditional Ukiyo-e woodblock art, Japanese folklore, and Noh theatre. Rather than simple decorative patterns, each piece in the collection contains a visual narrative - a vibrant snapshot of a...
In a fashion landscape dominated by high-speed production and disposable trends, a traditional textile mill stands out as a defiant anomaly. While much of the British textile industry moved overseas decades ago in search of bigger margins, a small corner of Cheshire refused to read the script. Welcome to Macclesfield. At first glance, Macclesfield might appear to just be a quiet market town on the edge of the Peak District. But to anyone who cares about what sits around their neck, it’s a totemic place. For over two centuries, this unassuming town has produced some of the finest printed silk on the planet. It is also where every single Cravat Club silk cravat and pocket square begins its life. Here...
Wow, what a weekend! It was an absolute pleasure to set up shop once again at The Goodwood Revival, marking our 13th year at this singularly stylish event. There’s clearly a reason we keep coming back year after year; and it’s not just the excuse to spend three days surrounded by vintage cars and immaculately dressed folk. One of the things we enjoy most about Goodwood is the opportunity to meet our customers in person. Over the course of the weekend, we welcomed plenty of new faces, as well as familiar ones who make a point of coming to see us each year. Some customers have been wearing Cravat Club for many years now, so it’s always particularly lovely to...
If pushed, we would say that autumn is perhaps the most rewarding season when it comes to dressing well. As the days grow cooler and the landscape takes on an entirely new character, it provides the perfect opportunity to embrace richer colours, considered layers, and create texture and intrigue. It is the season for careful layering, heavier fabrics and richer colours. Wool jackets, textured knitwear, smart coats and, of course, silk accessories all have their part to play. But autumn dressing doesn't have to mean reaching automatically for browns, greys and navy blues. One of the easiest ways to build a more interesting wardrobe is to get adventurous with colour. The secret is not necessarily to wear more colour, but to combine...
There just aren't many places where a man can turn up in a three-piece suit, a silk cravat and a carefully chosen accessory these days. However, we're pleased to say that the Goodwood Revival is one of them. Every September, Goodwood Motor Circuit becomes a glorious time machine, bringing together historic racing cars, vintage aircraft, period clothing and some incredible vintage fashions. As such, it is quite frankly one of our favourite weekends of the year. While you certainly don't have to dress in period style, embracing a little of the vintage-inspired aesthetic is very much part of the fun. Now, you want to look as though you belong at Goodwood Revival, not as though you've just escaped from a...
