Victorian Cravat

• 1). Find the middle of the cravat and place it in front of your neck. Wrap the ends around to the back of your neck.
  
  
• 2). Cross the two ends behind your neck and bring them forward to the front again. It should be tight, but not so tight that it is uncomfortable.
  
  
• 3). Tie a knot in front of your neck. Keep it slightly loose. Tie another knot with the two ends; pull the opposite end through the loop as you did on the first knot.
  
  
• 4). Tighten the knots slightly. You do not want them hanging loose, but you also don't want tiny knots. It should be a full-looking knot.
  
  
• 5). Leave the ends of the cravat hanging loose, or tuck them inside your vest or jacket. The first is informal, while the second look is more formal.
  
  

Day Cravat

• 1). Find the middle of the cravat and put in behind your neck. The two ends should hang down in front of your chest.
  
  
• 2). Cross the right side over the left side.
  
  
• 3). Bring the one you just crossed over up to your neck and under the crossed pieces. Once it comes up, pull it down your chest.
  
  
• 4). Straighten the two ends so they lay on top of each other, down the middle of your chest.
  
  
• 5). Tuck the ends of the cravat under the vest, waistcoat or jacket you are wearing.
