Most men will wear a flower on the lapel of their jacket
only a handful of times in their life, which is a shame, they shouldn’t be
reserved for proms and weddings. Nothing adds panache to a man’s
appearance like the confidence in wearing a stylish boutonniere. Some
men will dismiss the boutonniere as feminine, this is the polar opposite, as
many great statesmen, warriors, and poets have worn flowers for over a
millennium.
The boutonnière is worn on the left lapel of a men’s suit, sport
jacket, or blazer jacket; it can also be worn on an overcoat. It is all about the detail, and confidence
when wearing a flower pin, do not be afraid to be an individual, wear a
boutonniere because you want to. I find however, wearing a real flower when you
are, not going to a prom or wedding, can be some what obtrusive, and to in your
face, I much prefer the fabric flower pin for everyday wear. Remember men that just like the bow tie, only wear a flower pin when you have nailed your styling capability.
I personally am not the biggest fan of these less then subtle designs.
