Ugly Pocket Square Contest - And The Winner Is......

[Gus]

Pocket squares are a fun accessory. But, like many things on Styleforum there are the good, the bad and the ugly. This will be the "thread of shame" for pocket squares that should never decorate the pocket of any gentleman. So, dig into the back corner of your closet and find that pocket square "mistake" that you made and post it here. I will judge the "winner" and send them a nice classic square. All entries must be in by July 31st, 2011 and posted here.


The first entry is one I received in the recent issue of Men's Club magazine:

This is an ugly pocket square gents.....

You have to own the PS for it to qualify?

I think I can do this. Can I post a group shot and let someone else decide? Or I have to select one myself?

Sorry, no extra points for ugly group shots.Only one pocket square per entry pic. But you can enter as often as you like.

Crap. I literally just started my PS collection last week (coincidentally, buying my first one from Spoo). As of this weekend, I own a grand total of three squares. I suppose I could post a "group shot" of my power trio.

^ This is a great idea. I can't tell you how many meetings I've missed due to uncooperative pocket squares.

Any one have one of these?
