Whether you're attending a black-tie event (suits with bow ties) or want to look hip and confident at a moment's notice, a bow tie is a dapper neckwear option. But as stylish and as sleek as they are, you might be wondering, "How do I tie a bow tie?" Find answers to all your bow tying questions in our how to tie a bow tie guide. Keep your tie looking crisp and clean with these tie care tips.

The pre-tied bow tie is a neat, preternaturally symmetrical bow attached to an adjustable band. It is easy to size and painless to put-on. Pre-tied bow ties look pre-tied and lack the character of a self-tie.

Apart from weddings, the most common settings to see a bow tie in all its glory are black tie events, for which few of us receive regular invites. The black-tie dress code is straightforward: dinner jacket (tuxedo) and a black bow tie (preferably silk). Wearing a self-tie bow tie is imperative: a pre-tied bow tie looks cheap, diminishing both you and your ensemble.

The big butterfly is larger and has a more relaxed, plush silhouette than the standard butterfly. It is sometimes worn in formalwear and is perhaps best-suited to fancy-dress occasions. This large bow tie is also very appropriate for bigger or taller men. Without a suitable context, or on a smaller man, the big butterfly bow tie style can look comic. It is a grandiose tie, and should, therefore, be worn grandly.

These days the rounded club bow is the rarest of bow ties. Arguably the least formal of the lot, this is the tie for Sunday drives in classic cars like the Mitsuoka Himiko, a picnic by the lake, or some fly fishing. We like this bow tie style and like it best in cotton and rougher textiles.

The band or neck strap of a bow tie has either an adjustable slider or a hook-and-holes arrangement with pre-marked measurements. Bow ties can generally accommodate collar sizes between 14.5 inches to 17.5 inches.

Although it never vanished completely from menswear, the bow tie has once again begun to reassert itself as a staple. We are happy to say that an ever-growing number of style-conscious men are now comfortable incorporating bow ties into their day-to-day outfits, and no longer view the bow tie as the preserve of the quirky, the comic, or the contrived. This is a point that we believe deserves emphasis. A man should feel as comfortable switching between neckties and bow ties as he would between monk-straps and lace-ups or between belts and braces.

Is a bow tie more formal than a normal tie?Bow ties are mostly more formal than normal neck ties. They are the preferred choice over the latter when it comes to Tuxedos for that very reason, especially when it comes to solid black or white bow ties.

"Just wanted to say how gorgeous these bow ties are! All 3 of them. They certainly have a wow factor about them! Definitely the right choice from material down to the style size!A very pleased customer here in the UK! Thankyou."

"In addition to your excellent ties, which I have been buying for over 15 years, your service and the fact that you are a Maryland company and make your ties in the USA keeps me coming back. It is a pleasure to be a customer."

"My order has arrived safely, after crossing the Atlantic in these unprecedented times. Thank you very much! I'm a bit of a bow tie obsessive, and yours are without a doubt the highest quality materials and sewing I've encountered. The silks are all heavy weight regardless of the weave, and tie brilliantly. The shapes are perfect, I own a mixture of 3" and 3.5" self ties and they're amazing."

"I must admit I was disappointed when my first choice became unavailable, but I am overjoyed by my substitute tie, and the big selling point about the ready tied tie, it's so easy to put on, the clasp is fantastic, the service has been excellent, although one comes to expect that from North America. God Bless you and America"

I have already started wearing them and am wearing one today at work. I'm quite pleased.Thank you again for your excellent customer service to this first-time purchaser.

"I have ordered your products for at least, 20 years. I am retired now, so don't wear ties as often as I used to, but I can't resist dressing up with a bow tie and have a perfect stranger comment. "I like your tie!"I'm certain that's common among your customers."

"Hello and happy holidays just want to let you know how impressed I am with my snowball diamond point bow tie I ordered recently, arrived just in time and was a big hit at the dinner table! I'll be back to buy another. Thanks again."

"I got my new 3" red bow tie Friday! I put it on today for work and I must say it looks sharp! Beautiful woven silk ties up nice and tight just like I thought it would! I look like a million bucks (if I do say so myself)! Thanks again and Happy 4th!"-- W. Walker Rochester, Minnesota

Brackish began with a single feather bow tie designed by Ben Ross and gifted to his groomsman Jeff Plotner. Since its inception, the brand has blossomed into a full line of men's and women's accessories with every piece crafted in natural materials, honoring the beauty that can only be found in nature.

Each Brackish product is designed and handcrafted in Charleston, SC using all natural, sustainably sourced feathers.

Every Brackish piece takes between four and five hours to craft, and each one passes through 15 sets of hands before completion.

Ideally, a diamond should reflect every ray of light that enters through its table facet back through it. However, not every stone is cut perfectly and when we speak of diamonds with a poor make, we usually think of light leakage through the sides or the bottom of the stone.

First and foremost, the skill and experience of the cutter play a large role in this aspect. On top of that, when cutters are working with the affected shapes (pears, ovals, marquises and hearts), they are also faced with other considerations and constraints for profitability.

For instance, it may not be economically viable for them to polish a diamond at the expense of losing too much weight from the rough. Also, if there is an unsightly inclusion in a particular area of the rough stone, the cutter may choose to take corrective actions to remove it at the expense of ideal facet proportions.

And because there is always a priority to maximize profitability instead of polishing away additional rough material for a well-proportioned diamond, the market is filled with plenty of mediocrely cut diamonds with different types of appearances.

On this note, I also want to offer you a word of caution here. I have had experiences with jewelers who had the cheek to tell me diamonds with dark bowties are actually more appealing and dark bowties are inevitable in fancies.

Check out these diamonds with their respective photographs that depict desirable and undesirable bow-tie effects. You will see why I love the use of images and videos as they can explain everything far better than what words can do.

Next, you can inspect the diamonds one at a time by viewing the videos at your own leisure and away from a sales environment. You could shortlist the diamonds you like and then cherry pick the best one based on your preferences.

You need to keep in mind that a bow tie effect of some degree will almost certainly appear in fancy cuts like ovals, marquises or pears. In fact, fancy cut diamonds without any traces of bow-ties are usually cut to dismal proportions and have issues with brilliance.
