How to Tie a Tie? Practical and Stylish!
Groom candidates who get goosebumps when they hear the word tying a bow tie, gentlemen who have never worn their own tie in their life, I have prepared this article for you. Let’s discuss the following issue in detail so that your hands and feet do not get tangled in excitement while trying to tie a tie or bow tie on your wedding day.
If you do not use the tie, which is one of the indispensables of men’s clothing, in your daily life, it is highly likely that you still do not know how to tie it. This accessory, which is threaded and tied under both shirt collars and descending from the neck to the navel, is generally used in business life and is an indispensable part of suits. A tie worn at formal meetings is also a symbol of elegance and solemnity. Tie fabrics are generally divided into woven and print, and woven fabrics, although more difficult to tie, show better quality. While fabrics such as silk, wool and linen are generally used in a quality tie, it is possible to come across mixtures such as wool-cashmere, silk-linen, wool-silk-linen.
The bow tie, which means butterfly, is a ribbon in the form of a bow that does not hang down, but wraps around the neck. The part that comes to the back of the neck is elasticated or hooked. The bow tie, which is a unique tying technique used in special events, can also be used with suits such as a tie, but the place where it finds itself is the tuxedo. When the bow tie comes together with different fabric types, its usage area also becomes different. For example, a bow tie made of satin or velvet fabric is worn at very special events at night in order to keep up with the seriousness of the environment, while a patterned knit or knitted bow tie is mostly used in daily life and adds a special affection to the wearer.
