This page is specifically for the cravat that is most associated with formal period wear. The scarflike neckwear that Americans call an ascot (but what purists would call a day cravat) is actually much more casual. It was popular from TheFifties to TheSeventies but still pops up occasionally.

It's also excellent shorthand to show your audience that a character is one rich, classy bastard.
More often than not, a character who wears a cravat will be quite a proponent of the GoodOldWays - if their not already living in YeGoodeOldeDays, that is (which they often are). Typically, they will be of BlueBlood or TheBeautifulElite. The more elaborate the cravat is, the more aristocratic (or [[UpperClassTwit pompous]]) the character wearing it will be.
If a character in the modern era wants to show their status, but doesn't want to look like they popped out of a time machine, they will often wear a toned down Affluent Ascot. These have the similar connotations, just with a more modern touch.
