Exquisite silk or crêpe puff scarfs consisting of white background with figures or flowers of a violet, blue, purple, maroon, etc., as your taste directs, are worn.
Remember, simplicity for morning wear—elegance for afternoon dress.
For house wear the black silk or satin four-in-hand is the neatest tie worn.
The Ascot form of tying a scarf is seldom used now.
Evening Dress.—Full evening dress requires the white lawn cravat—self-tying.
Long and wide is the most elegant.
Once or twice around may be worn. For wear with Tuxedo or Cowes body-coat, or the dress body-coat at informal affairs, theater, club, or home dinners, the black satin cravat—self-tying—is the proper thing. It may be once or twice around as you like. Never wear this cravat with a white waistcoat or white sash.
