00:00 Collar Jewelry Introduction
Pertaining to collar jewelry, which we’re defining as any jewelry worn on the collar of a dress shirt as part of classic men’s style. We won’t be discussing today are types of jewelry from other menswear sub-genres like modern collar studs or casual chains.
01:27 History of Collar Jewelry
Throughout history, mankind has had a fascination with wearing jewelry around the neck - from the Ancient Egyptian Usekh and the Celtic lunula to medieval and early modern bejeweled collars and gorget. The last of these was originally a decorative piece of armor protecting the throat.
02:14 Starched Collar Jewelry: 1. Collar Studs
03:25 2. Tie Retainers
05:19 Soft Collar Jewelry: 3. Collar Tips
06:40 4. Collar Brooches
The three most commonly worn types of collar jewelry, both historically and today, are:
07:27 5. Collar Pins
10:18 6. Collar Bars
14:29 7. Collar Clips
Our collar clip is more ergonomic with its concave middle, giving your tie a place to sit, creating a perfect harmony between tie knot, collar, and clip. We’ve engineered our clips with tighter coils than other brands, ensuring that they won’t slip, giving you a good grip without damaging your collar.
16:19 Construction and Materials
The specific functionality of each type of collar jewelry dictates how it’s assembled, but the most important aspect across all types is the material from which the jewelry is made.
At Fort Belvedere, our collar jewelry is made from solid brass or stainless steel, ensuring durability and a pleasant heft, and it’s then plated with one of three precious metals - brilliant yellow gold, warm rose gold, or alluring silver platinum.
18:37 Tips For Wearing: 1. Not above the knot
19:04 2. Know your knot
19:19 3. Suitably sized
19:57 4. Less is more
20:32 5. Formulate formality
So, now that you’ve collared all there is to know about collar jewelry, we can’t wait to see what kinds of looks you put together with this unique menswear accessory type.

Hello I'm a 13 year old from Britain and I would just love to thank all of you at Gentleman's Gazette for reinspireing me to wear classic menswer love your videos and keep it up!

[@themysteriousnavi6850]

13 eh? I'm 23!

[@vizbuck]

@@themysteriousnavi6850 I'm 49 so naaa! lol :)

[@purplerazor]

@@vizbuck 49? Nice I'm almost jealous because I can't get anything tailored because I will grow out of it very quickly

[@iainstewart781]

Keep it up kid. It’s better to start your style journey early. Ten years from now, you’ll be the best-dressed 23yr old around. 😀

[@Shortandslicked911]

Well done ! You will have an edge on your peers .

[@marcusbrown188]

This channel has really made me appreciate men’s fashion and even craftsmanship more

[@danielgalil5020]

Love Preston's outfit. A relatively casual outfit with a collar clip.

[@KFCJones]

Hey Preston, your haircut in this video looks fantastic! Dapper indeed, Sir!

[@tarquin8963]

It amazes me how well this video is edited. It might be one of the best simply edited informational videos I have ever seen. There are so many subtleties in the shifts while keeping the representation clean and minimal. I feel most can easily overlook it in passing glance, but it really is impressive.

[@larrytron1992]

I've always liked collar jewellery, they help you look more sophisticated. I usually never wear a tie without wearing a tie bar

[@mud-go8ky]

I love wearing my ties and coats. Not many people seem to do it anymore, but you guys really bring back the spirit and style! Thanks for educating and encouraging of the true gentleman attire :)

[@Shortandslicked911]

I love the tie bar , it makes a white shirt look incredibly smart .

[@MariekevanBuytene]

Thank you from a lady who regularly wears ties. Cheers!

[@drip369]

Collar tips? Never heard of them. Neat

[@adstix]

Preston needs to be on the Faculty of Men's Style at Oxford ... as Professor Emeritus!

[@pablobaio9435]

I use stays on daily basis, but I admit I'm not a collar pin or bar fan. Excellent video as usual. Preston is a great narrator. Cheers.

[@thespian44]

Love this video! Will be buying large collar clips. Thank you

[@jmgerraughty]

I was just revisiting mine this weekend, thinking about upgrading from clip to pin!

[@kletts42]

I have both lengths collar clips in platinum silver. I like the look they give.

[@joeyoungs8426]

I used to wear tie bars but they were short lived as I favored the tab snap. I don’t recall the brand but they made a densely woven end-on-end with French cuffs and a tab snap. I always though that material with French cuffs was a bit of an outlier but I loved them.

[@jmichaelcruz1483]

Great job!

[@PrentissYeates]

I secretly watch this channel and go to my closet and realize the suit I bought 20 years ago is back in style.

[@JeffD63]

I go thru all my notices for the day and pass over GG videos till the last one. Placing the video at the front I tend to listen to it in a background atmosphere. Last feed I can sit there in a quiet house and enjoy. Thank you all.

[@joelhamilton9677]

I recently purchased an original Anson 1940s collar bar from Thomas Farthing's jewellery archive and I must admit it has began somewhat of an obsession for me with antique jewellery. They really look great with a proper spearpoint collar shirt.

[@JosephMoore-gc8me]

Yeah Preston. Rockin' the purple-people-eater look! Love it. Regarding the collar clip, it's a pretty cool look, but I really like John Wick's collar bar look from #2 in the series. There's something about the way it squeezes the shirt collar in, pops the tie, and stands out in the outfit while remaining understated in design.

[@13DTodd]

The bar and clips look classic. I’d try my luck with points or even a brooch instead of the look of what most people would confuse with a safety pin.

[@guanglesaveling3078]

In a few weeks time, a chap from Savile Row will be doing a masterclass on collars, allowing me (a 15 y/o) to be able to make detachable collars on my own!

[@vizbuck]

I thought collar pins were for collars with button holes.I'd never put holes in my good shirts. :)

[@drip369]

Go go gadget collar bar!

[@maxzilla5987]

Hello, I'd like to ask: is Fort Belvedere available in the Philippines?

[@drip369]

❤ ❤ ❤

[@roberthoffhines5419]

M wife thinks the're an 80s throwback (as am I), but I love the look, particularly with a pinstripe suit. Is the tie at :32 an upcoming Fort Belvedere product I hope?

[@gentlemansgazette]

A design whose fabric is unfortunately no longer available, Robert--but you can find our current selection of madder silk ties at the link. Thanks for watching! -Preston shop.gentlemansgazette.com/accessories/ties/ties-3-fold/silk-ties/real-ancient-madder-silk-ties/?

[@gabriellef3351]

Gotta say, im drawn to the showy jewelry

[@britishbastard6561]

So am I, but I know I’ll look like a muppet if I wear it

[@rkk578]

I always loved how the man fashion terminology found it's way to finance jargon.

[@rogerr.8507]

14:20 "I'D BUY THAT FOR A DOLLAR!" 🤣

[@hanseinarfuglum8858]

You would not make jewellery out of pure 24k gold it is too soft. 14k is normal, the price for 8g of 14k gold is more like 280dollars. Still expensive, but not quite 500.

[@saniainez]

My childish, flashy, absolutely weird inner self wants all of those 😂

[@rafaelcastillo3834]

Video says the Fort Belvedere collar clips won't slip off, but mine do, which is why I tried them once and had to take it off because one end kept slipping off.

[@gentlemansgazette]

Hi Rafael, you'll be pleased to hear that, as mentioned in the video, our newest collar clips are stronger than ever; they've gone through rigorous testing to ensure they don't fall off! 🙂 You can find them here: shop.gentlemansgazette.com/accessories/collar-pins-bars/?

[@rogerr.8507]

@@gentlemansgazette i blame his collar, personally. but what do i know?

[@paulnestor5318]

HELP!!!!! What color shoes should I wear with my seersucker?

[@rogerr.8507]

blue or grey?

[@iainmc9859]

Still got my collar bar from the 80's when they were in vogue with New Romantics. In the English speaking world its pronounced 'gorjet' not gorjay .... just as valet is pronounced as its spelt.

[@unclefart5527]

Think Sopranos.

[@animeboitiddies6146]

after years of watching this channel i have finally made the decision to transition into a woman. I would like to thank preston for his quality content and presentation, its been invaluable to me as i explore my personal style.

[@Kiterpuss]

Congratulations friend, I wish you well on your journey ❤

[@slackdaddy1912]

It’s to bad here in the states, more and more people dress like bums. Dressing for success, never goes out of style.

[@zagraniczniak4120]

To me they're all just too finicky. I think the tie should have a free-flowing look.

[@heronimushertz9256]

No, just no. It's 2023. Collar jewelry no more.

[@britishbastard6561]

That’s why you should wear it

[@thatperson1720]

I wear collar jewelry in 2023

[@moorshound3243]

Looks way better then that crude t-shirt.

[@s.bornand5424]

Hi guys. I love your content. You keep us men looking classy! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you do!!! Does Sven Raphael Schneider ever sell any of his suit jackets? If yes, is there a link to those sales or a place where we could buy said items? (He's even the same size as me so I'm always drooling over the plethora of amazing jackets he has)
