Re: Gala Hanky
I think you mean a cravat..
Re: Gala Hanky
Well you are talking about a scarf or band of fabric worn around the neck as a tie - known as day cravat .. worn beneath the short collar .... where a formal cravat or a cravatte, wedding stock tie or Ascot is worn over the shirt collar ..
It is the gentlemen stuff you know and sadly not many left thesedays :)

**Oh so its called cravat.....I always thought that was that ruffled layered neck do that guys wore in the Regency Era......
this thing that eastern guys sport is worn a lil differently....more like a hanky folded in a triangle and almost in a a cowboy kinda fashion**
