How to tie a tie  

  • A well knotted, good looking tie represents a classy dresser.

  • Try to contrast the shirt and the tie

  • A dark tie will make a suit look more executive.

  • A pale tie will dress up a suit for evening wear

  • A tie does not go with a short sleeve shirt

  • When a tie is tied perfectly it touches the top of your belt.

100% silk ties produce the best knot
