Last time I wore a cravat was at the age of 16 .I was wearing a Ben Sherman button down collared shirt circa 1970 ,that was slightly larger than my collar size .I purloined one of my grandfathers paisley silk cravats & tied it & arranged it simple knot fashion & I reckoned it looked a lot more elegant than just an open neck shirt .I have been meaning to acquire a selection of cravats ever since .You have just reminded me how classy & overlooked this type of neck attire is & is well overdue to make a comeback .👍
As you know I love my cravats. They are a perfect alternative to a tie in a dressy casual look that make you look instantly fantastic. Very well done video.
So true!
I taken a page from your notebook Ash, I wore an ascot for the first time in my life. I was a bit apprehensive at first but decided to go for it. It was such a positive experience with people I encountered I could make this more of a routine for me. I found it extremely comfortable to wear and will be looking forward to my next opportunity to wear one. Many thanks!
Wearing one for the first time for a fancy party and I kind of love it! So much more comfortable than a traditional necktie, and stylish!
Another most splendid tutorial.
I myself have a plethora of cravats and love wearing them.
This is wonderful. Thank you. My ascot always slid down. Now I'm going to know how to sort that out. Really grateful, thanks!
Your two cravat videos are fun, spirited and so much fun. I'm glad I found you. I'd been stuck with a fusty-crusty young fellow who thinks he knows it all. I've worn cravats for decades. But I love cravat videos just the same.
Well I've one minor point which you will love: with a pleated cravat, as with any cravat-tie, the ends are called 'blades'. What fun.
I do have a suggestion: do not get anything purporting to be Jacquard. That is essentially embroidery if you will, very unsuitable and the threads will go faster than hounds to a hare.
Loved it and will watch you lots henceforth!
I remember wearing a regular scarf like a cravat to school during the winter, called it a cra-fat. Thanks for the tutorial, never thought there was a better knot than the traditional.
Excellent video Ash, now to go cravat shopping!
I’ve never even thought of wearing a cravat. But looking at this I bet they’re fantastic at keeping your neck feeling cosy all day long! (As well as looking great obviously)
Started wearing a safari suit to formal occasions and a cravat is standard with those. Must say, the comfort and breathability is a massive pleasure, plus it's got a classic class to it
Thinking about buying my first ascot today because why not, so i searched on Google "the easyest ascot to wear" for color etc and i found your video.
Its an amazing video, very helpful, clear and precise.
Glad I could help!
This is a terrific video. Thank you! Class, all generating an understated and stylistically dapper look.
Got my wedding in 2 days and getting ready to wear my first cravat "in anger". I've always hated ties, because I don't like the feel of a fully buttoned up shirt, and am so glad I've recently discovered a cravat!
You got this!
Thank you Ash. It was the simple knot which was letting me down. After much faffing around it never stays put. The traditional knot is the way forward!
Yes. Thank you very much for this. I always tie my scarves and cravats the same way now some alternatives with new points of interest on oneself. Don't forget to alternate between cravats/scarves neckties and bow ties. That brings interest in one's attire.
Glad it was helpful!
Very clear and concise explanations. I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation.
Thanks for the tutorial! It does make a difference in the way people perceive you. I got a lot of respect when wearing one. People treated me like a Sir 😂
Nice tutorial on a Classic Menswear Accessory that is seldom utilized in Menswear today!👍 Here's to living a more elegant life! Cheers!🎇👋🎩👔👞✌
Simple and easy . love your tutorial
An excellent tutorial, thank you. As a fellow Welshman, I am delighted to have found your channel, and have just subscribed! Kindest regards.

Thanks for making it simple...Great!
Had an unused, unlined silk scarf in the wardrobe...... Wow looks really good. Thanks Ash!
Welcome to the cravat world sir - wear with poise & bearing!!
Thank you for sharing your most valuable knowledge.
Always welcome
awesome video and easy to follow. BEST CRAVAT video ever.
Glad it helped!
OH I LOVE THIS STYLE! I BE WEARING THIS ON A BIG EVENT OR SUNDAY SERVICES. N I USE TIEs TO DO THIS STYLE I MEAN U JUS GOTTA HAVE THE SKILLS N EXPERIENCE TO MAK IT HAPPEN.
See... now you have done this properly, I’d believe everything you say ! Well done.
This chap appreciates this guide. thank you
Glad it helped
Excellent job!
Awesome video I was able to follow the whole thing thank you
Very informative, thank you.
Hola Ash, liked this one, very compact and down to business. I must say living in a hot country sometimes a collar and tie can get a bit warm, so I do like to use a cravat, especially when out and about on my motorcycle. Very nice to see you give some support to this underrated item of attire, cheers.
Sadly the cravat/ascot does get the love it deserves, but I will continue to champion it's benefits going forward. Thank you for your support.
Great video and well presented.
Thanks for watching
Well, that was easy - thank you very much.
Thanks Ash,Nice One Guvnor!
Thank you so simple and very Wunderbar !
You are welcome!
Thanks I am about to go on the the Queen Mary 2 I will use this in the Churchill lounge
Canadian Fan, cheers!

Thanks man, you saved me.
Glad I could help
That was helpful
This is just so niiice , thank you 😊🤭
You’re welcome 😊
Thanks!
Thank you sir, my pleasure to assist - rock that cravat!!
Wow ❤
We are going to a 1940s event tomorrow in Northallerton UK tomorrow.
My wife suggested I wear my father’s cravat (born 1911, probably wore it in the 1940s!)
The traditional knot works for me and looks very stylish I think.
I do feel somewhat like an early James Bond! Maybe Sean Connery? (Not one of those new whipper snappers!)
Can you get me an Aston Martin DB5 across to me for tomorrow morning?
Make sure the passenger ejector seat is working in case my wife misbehaves!
Thanks for the video.
Never worn a cravat to be honest, I believe I must get one now, they look fantastic and lift up and unbuttoned shirt style
4:01 "Four hin hand" flashbacks from the late, great Windsor Davies 😃
Had no idea what an ascot was until I googled it after a round of wordle.😁
When I joined the Army back in 1964 all the personal sported ascots ( infantry was bleu ,armor was yellow and so on ) when I got out of basic training they stopped the practice .
Would it be ok to weare one with out a jacket with just a white dress shirt?
Oh yes indeed sir. I do so regularly.
One advantage of this over a necktie is I wouldn't have to undo and retie it several times to get the two ends to line up properly, like I always have to do with a tie.
Exellent
Good to know Ash. I like that 2nd Cravat The best. Thank you.
It is probably simple but would you have a good suggestion for turning a new C19 mask into a pocket square?
Well, its just a piece of material so it should work just fine.
@@TheChapsGuide ok
Great to see some appreciation of the cravat. It's time it came back.
Recently I partially severed a tendon - foolishly whittling whilst walking; the cravat I was wearing served as a tourniquet and kept blood loss to a minimum until I arrived at A and E.
So, it looks swell, brings a flash of colour and it could save your life... or at least a finger or two...
PS. How do you feel about bow ties Ash?
Well sir, I can thing of no better endorsement for the cravat than your own experience, albeit I am hopeful that you made a full recovery and your piano-playing skills have not been adversely affected by the experience.
@@TheChapsGuide Thankfully my instrument of choice - the comb and paper - requires very little manual dexterity!
Ascot is the best
N I LOVEs THAT SUIT TOP NYCE!
👏👏👏👏👏
Neis iawn!
This video I'm really interested in. I've always wanted to wear a cravat, but lack the confidence as it ( to me) echoes a kind of snobbery or pretentiousness. But, I love the informal refined look they give off. A kind of sophistication without trying too hard. What's your take on these " class" obstacle some of us may have about wearing one.
Great question. Class seems to have largely disappeared from clothing these days in my opinion. In the 'old days' better quality clothing was out of the reach of the 'lower or working' classes simply due to funds. And hence nice clothing, such as suits, hats and cravats, were seen as the preserve of the wealthy, as they had the money to buy such items - but now, thanks to global markets and cheaper manufacturing (and synthetic materials), we pretty much all have access to swanky items of clothing.
So if you want to wear a cravat - and why not - go for it!!
@@TheChapsGuide Ash, thank you for your kind reply. I think I'll invest in a cravat, I think they look elegant and sauve, the mark of a confident man. Congratulations on your MBE, by the way. I've just read an article where you and your work were discussed. 👏
Ash I have a few but rarely wear them. Need to start I guess. I like your smoking jacket. Do you have a fez to wear with it while you are smoking your pipe? Cheers Ron
Yes I do. I only wear it in the house though.
@@TheChapsGuide smashing! 😎
While a friend originally sent me this for a cosplay, as a transmasc nonbinary lad, I think I've needed to learn this for a while.
Where can I buy a men’s black unlined silk scarf?
Hard to beat Soho Scarves - they offer an excellent black aviator scarf: soho-scarves.com/products/air-black-aviator-scarf
@@TheChapsGuide I thank you sincerely for your reply and informed knowledge. I appreciate your time, thank you. I shall follow your link.
i might try one Do you know any one's made in UK?
I am a huge fan of Soho Scarves - London-based.
@@TheChapsGuide thanks Ash, I will take a look
Ebay is your friend for pre owned silk scarves (the shorter variety) that make for more versatility than the pre shaped, or narrowed in the middle cravats. You'll easily find good condition specimens for around the six quid mark.
I've been wanting to try wearing an ascot for some time but I'm afraid it would be very much out of place where it live. Very small town, not exactly cosmopolitan.
I could say the same, but I wear the ascot for myself and not others, so I make the choice to stand out from the crowd ...... go on ...... give it a try!!
interesting accent- where are you originally from?
South Wales
Over here in Belgium, I think if you wear an ascot, people will throw rocks at you 🤣
I lived in Belgium for 2-years in the 1990s (Mons). No one ever threw a rock at me then!
Why (k)not, on the road to Cravat Nirvana.
British innit?
He is welsh

IT BRINGS STYLE TO A GRAVE YARD HA FOR EVEN THE DEAD WAKE UP N LOOK AT U AS U WALK THROUGH HA IM SAYIN IT DRAWS ATTENTION
I jusr ordered my ascot from Amazon. I can't wait to tell and show everyone that you don't always have to wear a 👔 here in Georgia USA. I'm trying to keep it classy. 🎩🩱
Good for you sir - wear it with pride
Thanks!
Thank you for the support sir. It is much appreciated
