The best-dressed men know the difference between a good outfit and a great one is usually the smallest detail, and pocket squares for men are that detail. The right one takes a Nehru jacket from smart to sharp, a bandhgala from formal to commanding, and a blazer from finished to polished. At Taroob, our pocket squares for men are handcrafted from pure silk and printed with artisan techniques, then delivered across the UAE, giving each piece a richness that mass-produced versions cannot match.
A pocket square looks simple, but it does a lot. It adds colour to a plain outfit, texture where everything else is flat, and shows you pay attention to detail, which matters most for men who wear Nehru jackets and bandhgala suits where the breast pocket sits front and centre. For the full accessory wardrobe, our men's stoles, scarves and shawls for men pair perfectly with them.
Types of pocket squares for men at Taroob
Every piece is made from premium silk, with prints drawn from the same craft that runs through all Taroob products. Here is the range to choose from.
- Silk: 100% pure silk that holds a fold, catches light, and drapes softly
- Printed: paisleys, geometrics, Kalamkari-inspired motifs, and modern abstracts, several sharing the look of our Kalamkari shawls for a coordinated His and Her gift
- Solid and tonal: black, navy, burgundy, white, and champagne for quiet, versatile elegance
- Statement prints: bold designs for men who want the pocket to be the focal point
Pocket square for a Nehru jacket
The Nehru jacket is one of Taroob's most loved men's pieces, and a pocket square lifts it from good to unforgettable. The breast pocket sits at eye level, so it is the natural spot for a colour or pattern accent.
- For a solid Nehru jacket, pick a printed square in a contrasting colour
- For a textured or patterned jacket, a solid square in a matching tone keeps it balanced
- Use the Presidential fold for a classic look, or the Puff fold for something more relaxed
- Coordinate the square with the jacket buttons or embroidery rather than the fabric body
Pocket square for a bandhgala
A bandhgala is the most formal piece in menswear, so every detail counts, and a silk square is essential rather than optional. The right one completes the look.
- For black or navy bandhgala suits, try deep red, champagne gold, or a rich print
- For lighter bandhgala suits, a darker square adds an elegant contrast that grounds the look
- Keep the fold crisp and the colour deliberate for a commanding finish
- A tonal square reads refined, while a printed one reads confident
How to fold a pocket square?
The right fold is the difference between polished and messy, and there are four worth knowing. Match the fold to the formality of the event.
- Presidential fold: a flat, straight line showing about a centimetre above the pocket, the most classic
- Puff fold: pinch the centre, let the corners fall, and tuck in the rounded puff, relaxed and modern
- One point fold: a triangle with the point up, sharp and traditional for formal suits and bandhgala
- Crown fold: two or three points showing, the most decorative, best with printed squares
