Folding a Pocket Square--Part 2: The Triangle Fold
While the Presidential Fold has a simple elegance to it, sometimes a man wants to add a bit more pizzazz to his look. One step up in complexity is the Triangle, or One-Point fold. A little fancier in appearance without being too much more elaborate in execution, this is a good choice for a night out, a visit to a house of worship, or any occasion where you want to put on just a little more style.
