For occasions that require black tie dress, men add studs to their formal dress shirts as a form of male jewelry. Used to secure French cuffs, cufflinks, often signify the wearer’s personal style and taste.

If you are attending a formal ball or wedding and want to put on cufflinks and studs properly, use these instructions to add a little sartorial splendor to your menswear.

  • Fashion Advice: Put on your cufflinks to dress up your French cuff shirts

A cufflink is a small device with a swivel bar attached to a decorative button or gemstone. First, ensure that the holes in the cuffs are aligned together.

  • Types of cufflinks include: Bullet closures, Whale back closure, Fixed Backing, Chain Links, Ball Return and Silk Knots.

To add a cufflink to your dress shirt, push the swivel bar closed to push the bar through the hole in cuff.

Open the swivel bar into the t-position to secure the shirt. To remove the cufflinks, close the t-position to remove the cufflink from the cuffed-sleeve.

  • Fashion Advice: Secure your studs to a shirtfront

Push the base of the stud through the holes in the shirt from the back of buttonhole to the front. Turn the studs like a button to secure the studs.

    Nice article, some good cufflink info.
    Another great tip when choosing cufflinks as a gift is to focus on the persons interests/hobbies and find a pair of cufflinks that match this interest. (i.e. a pair of car cufflinks for someone with a motoring interest)
