How to Put on a Boutonniere & Lapel Flower Pin The Right Way

https://gentl.mn/1TEi787 I'm going to tell you how to wear them, why men wear them, and how not to wear them. Let's start a little bit with the history. There are various theories about boutonnieres and who invented them and who wore them first. It dates all the way back to the fifteenth century when people in Naples had flowers, but it's not really clear whether that's true or not. The first time we saw some evidence was in a painting from Gainsborough in 1771 when you could actually see a lapel flower in a buttonhole because at that time, jackets didn't really have lapels; they were just buttoned up high and that's how the lapel eventually developed but that's an entirely different story and I'm not going to go into too much detail today. If you're a history buff and you'd like to learn about the entire history of the boutonniere, please check out my article that deals with it in all details. First of all - what you should never, ever do, no matter whether it's real or not, is pin it on your lapel because that's just not the way it's done and it looks odd, especially if you have a shiny, metal part there that reflects the light. People are more prone to look at your flower than looking at your face. The reason we dress up is so we wear the clothes and the people see that and the clothes should never wear us. Rule number one: Don't pin a flower onto your lapel. So now how do you wear it? Ideally, you should wear it always through your buttonhole. As you can see here, there's a buttonhole and it's open because it's actually a real buttonhole so that's how you're supposed to wear it. What do you do if your jacket has no buttonhole? Well, in that case, I would suggest you go to an alterations tailor and have one sewn in because that's what you need. It's traditional because it actually evolved as top buttonhole that would be buttoned. And people would flap open their lapel, and that's how it came to be there. And that's the only place you can wear it. So if you don't have one go to an alterations tailor and have one made. The procedure is the same with real flowers or silk flowers that we have here from Fort Belvedere. It's always the same procedure. The idea is you have a protector or a "stem keeper" in the back of your lapel so your lapel stem doesn't hang out of your lapel. If you don't have one, please check out my article with detailed instructions on how to make one yourself. If you don't want to do that, your alterations tailor could do it. Or if you're in a position where you really don't have time and you need a solution right away, get a simple safety pin. The safety pin helps and has the same function. So all you do is, you open the safety pin.Once it's opened, you just pin it through your lapel. Make sure it doesn't peek out in the front. So, double check - nothing peeks out in the front! Then you close it at the back. And now your boutonniere stem just goes through there. Nobody's going to see it from the front and you can easily remove it afterwards and it's very inexpensive and you can always do it that way. It's a really great way to, yeah, get a quick solution - an inexpensive solution and it works in any jacket, anytime. ======================================= To never miss any of our videos again, sign up here for free: https://gentl.mn/1qNYja6 Want to see more videos?
