Button covers are placed over a coat's top button, replacing the traditional bow tie. They are usually formal and decorative, designed to accent a formal outfit. They are most commonly used with mandarin-collar tuxedos. They are usually made from rich fabrics or hard, shiny materials, such as plastic or jewels, and often embedded with jewels or other ornaments.
Crochet Button Covers are knitted into small circles that cover the back and sides of the button. They are used to secure the button into place and protect it from staining or scratching the fabric. They are ideal for casual wear and can be worn on less formal events.
Metal Button Covers are rounded metal plates fitted over the coat button. They are usually covered with fabric to better match the rest of the outfit. They fit only specific button sizes and are often custom-made for the best fit.
Jewel Button Covers consist of a round, polished jewel, such as onyx. They are mounted onto gold or silver rings for fitting over buttons. They are sometimes lined with smaller jewels around the edges.
Fit: Choose a button cover that fits properly over your top button. Make sure it does not shake or slide around when you move. Look for one that attaches securely to the button and coat to keep it from falling off.
Trim: Choose a button cover with a soft-edged trim to keep from scratching the coat fabric. Avoid dyed trims because they may stain the coat. Gold or silver trims protect the fabric while adding an elegant look to your outfit.
