The same styles are worn in summer as in winter. In summer much of the bosom is allowed to show; while in winter it seldom or never shows, excepting evening dress. Wherever and whenever morning wear is used, any of these ties may be worn.
For riding, driving, traveling, yachting, and lounging, the ties for morning wear may be worn.
Very elegant, large cravats—tied in a bow-knot, or as a four-in-hand—are made from De Joinvilles; either in black satins or black silks, or dark shades of silk.
The De Joinville is folded by yourself or your furnisher. It may be sewed or not. This De Joinville cravat is for morning wear only. Always have your ties, cravats, and scarfs made to order. This is the only way to keep them uncommon.
Afternoon Dress.—Here is the chance for the greatest amount of display. Diamond pins, and large, white, puff scarfs tied and pinned in shape by yourself, are worn with the cutaway body-coat or the frock body-coat.
In winter the large puff scarf only is worn with afternoon dress.
In summer, four-in-hands—either in bow or regular tie—as well as the puff scarfs are worn. With a sash—a bow tied or a four-in-hand tied, its ends placed in the opening of the bosom, is worn. A scarf may be worn with a sash when the body-coat is not worn open.
Waistcoats should be four buttons, and body-coats cut low in collars in order to show the beauties of the huge puff scarf now worn.
Silk is the material for the white scarf.
Satin is only allowable in black and dark shades for scarfs.
