How to fold your tartan pocket square – The Winged Puff Fold

In the third of our series exploring How to fold your tartan pocket square, today we discuss The Winged Puff Fold. We chose the Isle of Skye tartan this week, inspired by the beautiful purple heather and idyllic landscapes found in Skye. Due to the rising popularity of the tartan we now have a full range of men's accessories in stock, along with lots of other items made to order.

The Winged Puff Fold

I'm not going to lie, this fold stood out as one we had to write about based on the name alone! With the unique look created through a combination of both straight edges and gentle folds, this is fast becoming one of my favourite pocket square folds. A little more daring than those we have discussed previously, read on to establish yourself as a gentleman of true style.

5. Fold the middle point of the triangle up to the centre of the pocket square, and repeat with the left and right corners this will now look a little like an open envelope.
