Hermes Grand H Pongee Jacquard silk pocket square

Whether or not you’re wearing a tie, the pocket square is a natural complement for any suit. This silk edition from Hermes in noir featuring their classic ‘H’ in multi-fonts is subtle yet distinct enough, and would do nicely with an earth-toned classic cut single breasted ensemble. Simple yet debonair.

The original American suit and tie pioneers bring you a befitting tie bar in your choice of sterling silver or 14k plated sterling silver.

Alfred Dunhill Motorities Racer Lapel Pin

A brand with a long-standing association with motoring and motor racing, Alfred Dunhill’s Motorities Racer Lapel Pin is a fun little piece that depicts that history. With a unique racer motif finished in silver, this piece is part of a similar themed range of accessories inspired by an elite group of British racing enthusiasts known as the Bentley Boys. Who says suits need to be conservative?
