An occasional series wherein we ask our team of putative formalwear experts to properly pronounce some of the trickiest formalwear terms. (Spoiler: results vary.) Our shame is your gain.
In this episode we attempt to pronounce piqué: a stiff fabric, typically cotton, woven in a strongly ribbed or raised pattern (as seen in our Pleated Point Collar Dress Shirt).
Is there a formalwear term you can’t pronounce? Drop us a line on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and we’ll feature it in a future installment.
