cravate

Japanese: cravate
cravate

…Simply called a tie, it is a strip or string of cloth wrapped around the neck or shirt collar, and is mainly used to decorate men's clothing (see image). It is said to date back to the woolen scarf called a focala worn by soldiers in ancient Rome, but its direct origin is the cravat, which appeared in England and France in the 17th century. The cravat originates from the kravata, a piece of cloth worn around the neck by Croatians, and whereas previous neck ornaments were sewn to the collar of a shirt, it was a detachable scarf-like item. …

The juste col was a knee-length coat called the “casaque”, which had been worn by cavalry and infantry from the end of the 16th century and had become popular among the general public in the 17th century, and was promoted to aristocratic clothing. …
