I bought this for "a foreign prince" character in our Christmas theatricals, and yes, it was a deliberate shout-out. The craftsmanship is great but, most importantly, it was long enough to tie around a generously-sized collar and tuck into the frock. The description was up-front about the man-made material, which has good body and kept its lustre without snagging or pilling during the entire run.

Is there an option for six stars?
Why six? Well, this was even MORE than I could have asked for! I was expecting JUST the ascot, as that's what was advertised, however, this ascot also came with a matching pocket square! Exactly how ascots were sold back in my day, that the modern world seems to have forgotten! Historical Emporium, however... they have not forgotten, and saved me from having to try to find a matching pocket square! The beauty, shape, size and quality of this ascot is just absolutely perfect! It foes perfectly with my purple suit, as well as a nice accent to my purple velvet smoking jacket (also from Historical Emporium)
I highly recommend, if you get a smoking jacket from this site, or even a nice dark suit, this ascot is simply PERFECT! It goes just as well with my old west looks, as well as modern looks. Beautiful (and again... VERY nice touch with the pocket square being added)
