THE FRENCH CUFF
The French cuff is dressier than the single-length cuff. You’ll tend to wear a French cuff with tuxedos or for formal events.
Step 1
Fold over the cuff, so the holes align, also known as “kissing.”
Step 2
Place the back of the cufflink through the holes.
THE BARREL/CONVERTIBLE CUFF
This type is more common and more casual. You will likely wear casual cufflinks with this shirt.
Step 1
Pull out both sides of the fabric, so holes line up.
Step 2
Place the back of the cufflink through the holes.
When to Wear Cufflinks
Men usually wear cufflinks at formal and semi-formal functions. Lately, men have worn cufflinks with casual wear. So wear cufflinks whenever you want. But make sure the type of cufflinks you wear fit the occasion.
