I wear mostly linen, so I like the TV fold for them.

I have found second hand suits where there this fold was nothing but points of fabric stapled to cardboard. Much like a clip-on tie.

I am far less concerned with how a pocket square looks in my opinion than how it looks in my pocket.

This is why I prefer a barely showing tv fold.

That so happens to be a look. You want to think you put no effort but I don't think it's easy. I'm sure there some art that goes into your square that maybe I can't copy.
