How to Tie a Victorian Cravat

Many of our customers have asked us how to tie our victorian cravat. Here's one method that looks great and is very authentic.

Step 1

Hold the cravat in front of you, as shown, with equal length ends.

Step 2

Put the cravat across the front of your neck, crossing the ends in the back.

Step 3

Bring the loose ends forward again, adjusting the fit so it's comfortable but snug.

Step 4

Cross the loose ends in front.

Step 5

Make a simple knot, but leave the knot loose for the time being.

Step 6

Make another knot in the opposite direction, again leaving the ends loose.

Step 7
