One time on "The Genuine Article," a show about premier luxury goods, they went to a tailor in London, and the associate said to take the pocket square by the middle point and pull it through your fingers, then that's how you'd put it in the pocket. I'd then top it with a beautiful brooch (depending on the complexity of the pattern). I'd even do this with a pocket around the waist/hip area.

Mostly I just tie them around the back part of the handle on my purse.
 
Van, your new Cashemire Ancien is gorgeous; great summer look (even though it is officially a AW2008, no?) - very cool and chic! :tup:

Prada, yours are the best dressed bags in town - very elegant and pretty.

Merika, I love that look. I never manage to do it myself, the band just slides of my head in seconds.

lilyhermes, thank you! Having lived in France for five years, it starts to rub on!

castorny, your Caleche elastique made me smile, what a fun and beautiful design!

ardneish, we'd make a great sunday morning team (minus the ziggy for me). Living far from Starbucks, I've got cappuchino making down to an art form. :graucho:
 
This is a great thread!!

I only have one of this size so far, L'Annee du Rat:

Last week I found another way to wear my gavroches more comfy:
Fold each gavroche the basic way a scarf is folded
make a simple knot to have one scarf
position the knot in the back
wrap the scarf slowly around the neck to the back again
and pull the ends two times through the scarf
make a final small knot
 
I still love the classic 90s, but I have to say, after discovering gavroches (after a disingenuous Hermes SA insisted I tried) I have to admit I wear them much less... Now I want to also get a giant triangle, for the big triangle on front look without the extra double fabric.
How do you wear the gavroche? Sometimes I love their design but not sure how to use them. Any photos would be brilliant !

Favourite way to wear it is simple bias fold and wrapped around my neck for some color.

Beautiful - especially love the colors in you Dans Un Jardin!!!! Thanks for resurrecting this thread - gavroches are a format I have never tried so I'll be following this thread to see the creative ways that people wear them.
