How To Wear A Bow Tie


So the weather is warming up and that means more parties and events will be on calendar too. Now here comes the list of questions that start running through your mind. Like "what style should I wear?" or "are these colors too much?". But not to worry, I've got the answers for you....

Bow ties are usually worn at a formal event in the most common formal dress code > Black Tie. When you are attending an event that has a dress code, chances are that a standard black tuxedo must be worn with a black bow tie. Grab a matching cumberbund or a waistcoat and you're ready for that fancy dinner. But stay away from the bright colors and patterns or you'll definitely be the elephant in the room. 

For semi-formal events, this is the time to experiment with some different patterns, colors and textures for those bow ties. Mix in some velvet, tweed or other textures for a little extra fun. You can then pair your bow tie with a pocket square that completes your whole look. 

When attending casual events, it's safe to say that there are no limits to what you can wear. This is the perfect time to break the "fashion rules". Whatever you choose to pair together, whether it is a plaid shirt with an orang bow tie or a striped bow tie with polka dot socks > go for it!
