The Pakistani Man's Guide to Wearing Cufflinks
Cufflinks are one of the most underrated accessories in men's fashion — a small detail that makes a big difference. Whether you are dressing for a wedding, a business meeting, or a formal dinner, the right cufflinks instantly elevate your outfit from ordinary to polished.
At Raviiga Official, our Men's Cufflinks Collection offers a range of styles for every occasion.
What Are Cufflinks?
Cufflinks are fasteners used to secure the cuffs of a dress shirt. Unlike buttons, they are separate accessories that pass through the buttonholes of a French cuff (also called double cuff) shirt and lock in place. They come in a wide variety of styles, materials, and designs — from classic silver rounds to ornate gemstone pieces.
Types of Cufflinks
1. Classic Metal Cufflinks Silver or gold-toned cufflinks with a simple, polished finish. These are the most versatile and pair well with any formal shirt.
2. Gemstone Cufflinks Feature onyx, mother of pearl, or colored stones. Ideal for weddings and special events where you want a touch of luxury.
3. Novelty Cufflinks Fun designs that express personality — great for casual formal occasions or gifting.
4. Enamel Cufflinks Colorful and artistic, enamel cufflinks add a pop of personality to a plain white shirt.
How to Wear Cufflinks in Pakistan
In Pakistan, cufflinks are most commonly worn for:
-
Weddings (Baraat & Walima): Pair gold or gemstone cufflinks with a fitted sherwani or a formal suit. A classic mother-of-pearl or onyx cufflink pairs beautifully with both black and ivory suiting.
-
Business Events: Silver or gunmetal cufflinks with a crisp white or blue French-cuff shirt project confidence and professionalism.
-
Eid Gatherings: Dress up a shalwar kameez with a western-style collar by slipping in a pair of classic round cufflinks.
-
Formal Dinners: Go bold with a gemstone cufflink to add a point of visual interest to a dark suit.
How to Choose the Right Cufflinks
-
Match metals to your watch and belt buckle. Gold cufflinks with a gold watch; silver with silver.
-
Keep it subtle for the office — opt for small, understated designs.
-
Go bold for weddings — larger gemstone or ornate cufflinks suit celebratory occasions.
-
Consider the shirt color — white and light blue shirts pair with almost any cufflink; patterned shirts call for simpler styles.
