history

Dont think of a tie as a rope to strangle or hang you. Consider it as a fashion accessory that
is a pleasure to wear.
Sure, some knots can be tricky to tie, and they can end up lop-sided, too long, or too short.
Unattended, they sometimes seem to have a life of their own.
If you dont care how you tie your tie, it will tie you in knots. As ties have a natural attraction
for ketchup and bourguignon sauce, men whose stomachs take priority tend to leave their ties
in the cupboard.
However, the groom, the best man, and any self-respecting guest at a wedding, cannot avoid
the challenge of an elegant knot. And much more confidence radiates from a businessman
who wears a well-tied WINDSOR.
The elegance of a silk-lined tie tells everyone who you are.
This apparently simple accessory can make the difference between a man of substance and
character and a poor guy with nothing much to show for himself.
Men who want to look fashionable take great pleasure in using the extensive range of
materials and patterns available. Other men strive for elegance in the many combinations a tie
can be made to play with shirts, suits, cuff-links, and breast-pocket handkerchiefs.
Discrete and refined, sober and elegant, flashy and loud, each man clearly indicates his
predominant style by what he wears around his neck. A mans tie mirrors his daily state of
mind. Its distinct visibility is for everyones eye. A tie can be seductive. Lastly and most
importantly, it is a sign of self-respect.
The history of the tie
Originally worn for warmth by soldiers, the tie appeared in France during the reign of Louis
XIII. At that time, Croatian soldiers were recruited by the king of France. They wore a
knotted scarf around their necks. Some historians even think that the word for tie in French,
cravate, is a deformation of the word croate.
Around 1650 ties were worn at the court of Louis XIV. There was competition to see who
could sport the most elegant and audacious apparel by adding lace and silk ribbons. This
fashion spread throughout Europe.

Worn by the rich and by dandies, the tie remained fashionable during the following century. It
also underwent several changes.
A more functional tie developed during the second half of the 19th century due to the
influence of the industrial revolution on textiles. A new tie appeared, longer and straighter.
This new style of tie, named the REGATTA, was widely worn, and is the basic model of
todays tie.
In 1926, Jesse Langsdorf, a New York inventor, had the idea of cutting the form of the tie
diagonally across the fabric and of making it with three separate pieces. This gave a more
supple tie. Our modern tie was born.
Today, every day, school children in Nepal, businessmen in Manhattan, and hundreds of
millions of men throughout the world wear ties.
Tie care
A tie has two problems: it creases easily and it can get stained.If you want your favourite
ties to have a long life you have to look after them.
Meal times are the most dangerous moments for a tie, soup stains for example. Also, before a
dinner, be careful if you put on perfume.
Stains on a silk tie are almost impossible to remove completely.
If you can rush the damaged tie to a professional cleaning service there may be special
products to save it.
After stains, the other difficult thing to avoid is creasing. Ties do not generally survive well
under a hot iron. A better way is to let the creased tie hang peacefully in a damp environment
to lose its creases slowly and gently. Ideally, creases should be avoided by only lightly
forming the knot. When a tie is taken off it should be hung up. It can also be gently rolled up
or stored flat.
When travelling, your ties will be well protected if you keep them rolled up in a solid box.
Better still, treat yourself, and your ties, to a specially designed tie case.
when to wear a tie
Each occasion calls for a particular tie for a particular moment.
For an interview, choose a sober, neutral-coloured tie and keep novelty to a minimum.
For the office, use your creativity to match your tie-wear to the style of the company you
work for. In Sales and Creative environments colour comes into play: bright tones for
success in sales, violet for advertising and marketing.

In financial or legal environments, prefer elegance and distinction. A subdued silk tie will be
well accepted as will a tie that blends subtly with a shirt of the same tone.
For a business meeting, your tie will reflect the image of the company you represent. For
meetings in general, your tie will be a reflection of you yourself.
For big family reunions such as marriages, baptisms, communions, anniversaries, etc.,
there is considerable scope for individualistic colours and patterns. Light colours would be a
good choice.
Outside the family circle try to adapt your choice of colour and/or pattern to match the
style of your host/hostess. A white tie can be worn with elegance.
Black tie, white tie, pink tie, etc.
Choosing the colour of a tie is always a delicate matter. The colours of the accompanying
shirt and suit must be carefully taken into account.
Generally there are two ways of achieving a good effect: either the tie contrasts with the
shirt and suit, or it blends softly.
A plain black tie, smart but sober, is particularly associated with a dark suit and a bright
white shirt, giving maximum contrast.
White or cream ties are often reserved for special occasions. They blend well with the pure
white of a shirt kept for best.
A pink tie goes perfectly with white or pale blue shirts and a grey suit.
The bright colour of a red tie is enhanced when worn against blue, pink, black, or white
shirts.
A yellow tie marries well with plain blue or blue-and-white striped shirts: also with a strong
nearly marine-blue shirt, and with a pastel-blue shirt. Yellow can brighten up an autumn
shade of shirt (chestnut for example) but will not look good with a pink shirt.
Blue ties go perfectly with shirts of the same hue, or lighter. They are also perfect with a
white shirt. Remember, the bolder the colour the greater the elegance.
A green tie is not easy to wear. It may go with a red, white, black, or very light-green shirt.
Tie patterns
Like varieties of colour, patterns are extremely varied.

Even though the exuberance of the 70s is no longer in fashion, stripes never seem to go out
of date. Thin and equally spaced, or alternate wide and thin stripes, appear in all colours.
These straight lines harmonise perfectly with plain shirts for men with square shoulders.
Ties with a square pattern also match most shapes of face.
Distinct dots or even circles of dots are always ok.
Subtle patterns on a sober background usually suggest the required colour of the shirt.
These patterns are well suited to men who are short or tubby.
More care has to be taken when choosing fancy patterns. Even though flower patterns in
pink, blue, or even autumn shades can be particularly flattering against a plain shirt, they can
be disastrous if worn with a multi-coloured or patterned shirt. Geometrical patterns are
generally easier to wear.
For a perfect match, the patterns should be of the same colour as the shirt or suit.
he Four-in-hand
The four-in-hand is the all-time classic of tie knots. It is by far the most used, because it is
simple to tie. It works well for most types of tie and with nearly all types of shirt collar. It is
perfect for men of medium height and for tall men.
Conical and elongated, the Four-in-hand is narrow when tied with a lightweight fabric and
wider when formed with a thick material.

Preparation: Turn up the collar of your shirt, button the top button, then put the tie around
your neck.
Medium height men should position the narrow end of the tie at waist level. Tall men should
position the narrow end a little above the waist. Narrow-chested men will look better with the
Double Knot which has a similar shape.
The steps:
Step 1: Just below the collar, lay the wide end over the narrow end.
Step 2: Take the wide end behind the narrow end.
Step 3: Bring the wide end across the layover.
Step 4: Holding a finger in the loop, bring the wide end up, then down through the loop.
Step 5: Holding the narrow end, pull the knot gently up to the top shirt button.
When the knot is finished, the narrow end must be concealed and the wide end should be
level with your belt. The Four-in-hand in a few words:
Names: Four-in-hand, Simple Knot

Difficulty: *
Popularity: *****
Morphology: medium heights, tall men, deep-chested men, wide necks
Types of collar: nearly all
Types of tie: nearly all

The Double Knot

The Double Knot is very similar to the Four-in-Hand. It has just one more layover. At the
beginning the wide end is turned twice over the narrow end.
The slightly thicker finished knot makes it ideal for use with most shirts. It is also perfect
with all types of tie, with the exception of very thick fabrics.

Preparation: Slide the tie around your neck after first having buttoned up the top button of
your shirt and turned up the collar.
The two ends of the tie must be of different lengths. The wide end must hang down much
further than the narrow end.
Tying the Double Knot in 4 steps:
Step 1: Just below the collar, lay the wide end over the narrow end (see steps 1 to 3 of the
Simple Knot).
Step 2: Take the wide end behind the narrow end a second time.
Step 3: Bring the wide end up and under the layover and then into the loop formed by the
first or second layer.
Step 4: Finally, adjust the knot and slide it up to the centre of your collar.

The Double Knot in a few words:
Names: Double Knot, Simple Double, Victoria, Prince Albert.
Difficulty: **
Popularity: ***
Morphology: nearly all sizes.
Types of collar: nearly all.
Types of tie: standard, lightweight, and thin fabrics.
he Windsor Knot
The Windsor Knot is the knot for special occasions. Typically English, it owes its name to
the Duke of Windsor who made it popular.
As the finished knot has considerable volume it is preferable to restrict its use to wide-spaced
collars such as Italian collars or Windsor collars.
This knot is complicated to form. It has to fit exactly between the two ends of the collar and
must completely hide the top button of the shirt.

Preparation: Slide the tie around your neck after first having buttoned up the top button of
your shirt and turned up the collar. The two ends of the tie must be of different lengths. The
wide end must hang down much longer than the narrow end.
The steps:
Step 1: Lay the wide end over the narrow end.
Step 2: Bring the wide end up through the gap between the layover and your neck.
Step 3: Take the wide end to the right behind the layover, then forwards and up, then down
into the gap between the layover and your neck.
Step 4: Take the wide end round the front of the layover, up close to your neck, and down
through the loop just formed.
Step 5: Hold the narrow end and tighten the finished knot by pulling it gently up to centre it
on your collar.
The Windsor Knot in a few words:
Names: Windsor Knot, Full Windsor, Double Windsor

Difficulty: ***
Popularity: *****
Morphology: medium height, shorter men, narrow chests, thin necks.
Types of collar: classic, wide-spaced.
Types of tie: standard, long, lightweight fabrics.
The Half Windsor
The Half Windsor is similar to the Full Windsor although slightly less bulky, and easier to
do.
It is ideal for lightweight or not too thick fabrics. This elegant triangular knot works well with
shirts with a classic collar or an open-collar.

Preparation: Place the tie around your neck. Medium-sized men should start with the narrow
end well below the belt.

Tying the Half Windsor in 4 steps:

Step 1: Lay the wide end over the narrow end. Hold this layover and make a second turn
around the narrow end just above the first.
Step 2: Take the wide end horizontally behind the layover and bring it forward.
Step 3: Hold the layover, take the wide end up under the layover and slide it down through
the loop.
Step 4: Hold the narrow end and pull gently on the wide end to form the knot. When
finished, the narrow end should be concealed behind the wide end, which should be level
with your belt.
