00:00 How to tie the formal Ascot Introduction
Learn how to tie a formal daywear ascot which is also known as the cravat. It’s an item with a very vintage aesthetic and it’s particularly popular in Britain. We can still see worn for weddings, or at Royal Ascot when people wear morning wear with a top hat and a proper type Ascot.
02:31 Tie An Ascot The Popular Way
First, find the label in the middle of the formal ascot and place it firmly against the back of your neck.
Second, you don't want both sides to be at the same length so you pull on the right side until it's about 4 to 5 inches longer which is about 10 to 12 and a half centimeters. Ideally, you want the formal ascot to be very wide on the left side and very slim on the right side.
Now you take the slim end from the right, fold it diagonally over the left, with your left hand take the part that you just fold it over and bring it back to the original side, pull it a little snug.
Now again, bring that end that you just brought to the right and fold it over once more around to create what will be the knot.
Now with your left hand, you take the tip go back behind and push it up from the back so it comes out on top.
Pull a little bit so your knot tightens up a little bit. Just like a regular four in hand knot, you take the tip now and push it through the hole that you just created.
Ideally, you want to pull up and push up that knot a little bit so you create some wrinkles and so it doesn't look like a regular necktie. You'll also notice it's much bigger and that's okay.
Once you've done that, simply pull on the long end in the back and adjust the knot until it sits snugly against your collar. Ss you can see, the front end is much shorter than the back end and it looks kind of odd, however, you only wear a formal Ascot with a formal waistcoat or a vest.
So as a final step, you simply have to tuck it into your vest and it looks great. Voila! the popular way to tie a formal Ascot. If you're not wearing it at the end of the day, simply unravel the knot in the opposite way you tied it which means you pull through the front part first and unwind it, very simple.
05:46 Tie An Ascot The Popular Way The Traditional Way
First, locate the label in the middle of the formal Ascot and place it firmly against your shirt collar.
Once again, you pull the right side slightly longer about three to four inches or seven and a half to 10 centimeters.
Now the right side is folded over the left side and then brought up through the hole that you just created in the back.
Now the part that you just pull through should be in your right hand and the other part should hang straight down.
Now you take the part that just hangs down with your left hand and point it to your right. Subsequently, you take the piece in your right hand and you just pull through and fold it over so now it points downwards.
Once you're done with that, you take the point that hangs down vertically and bring it up through the loop you just created from underneath.
Once we got it through the hole, you pull firmly on both ends of the formal ascot. You can adjust the knot a little bit and you can see it creates a horizontal knot with some wrinkles. Now ideally, you want to take the item on the left and have it point to the right and the item from the right point over to the left. Basically, the two ends cross each other.
Now that you have folded over both ends in an X shape, you can tuck them into your waistcoat, keep adjusting until you like the look.
