stuohy Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hi guys, I'm a best man tomorrow and last night we did the trying on the suits thing... and found out that none of us knows how to tie a cravat (how common are we ). Have obviously looked on-line, but can only find instructions for cravats that have one bit longer than the other (if you know what I mean). The ones that we have from Moss Bros have equal length bits. Has anyone got any experience with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I always thought it was the same as a normal tie but without the last tuck. Edit: Yep, see what you mean about the longer end, but that doesn't matter. It's the same as this - up to step 6: http://www.tomsawyerwaistcoats.co.uk/store/showitemINFO-01.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

far Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 dude its similiar to tying a tie, make sure the front end is tapered with extra length before you turn it around the back vertical bit (I think this will be hard to explain without pics!)
