Cufflinks


Cufflinks are essential if you're wearing double-cuffs (doesn't be tempted to use them with single cuffs - they don't look good). The simplest types consist of two discs connected by a short chain. More popularly, cufflinks come as a design connected to a metal bar that slots through the buttonholes. Part of this bar swivels outwards to hold the cufflink in place.

An alternative is the sink knot, which will often come free with a mid-price formal shirt. Co-ordination is key to making this look good.

Matching ties and cufflinks, invariably bought as a present, should always be avoided, as should cufflinks of the novelty variety
