Bow Ties

Finding Your Bow Tie

Men’s bow ties can make a classic tuxedo feel understated or give a formal outfit a more expressive finish. Begin with the occasion and your shirt collar, then compare the bow’s shape and proportions. An oversized butterfly bow tie creates a different silhouette from a smaller design, so choose the scale that works with your collar and jacket.

Explore velvet bow ties in deep jewel tones, crystal-accented styles and colorful paisley designs. Black offers a classic starting point, while purple, navy, green and warm orange tones introduce color and texture. For weddings and prom, a bow tie can coordinate with a pocket square or another small detail without requiring every accessory to be identical.

If you prefer coordinated neckwear and straps, browse bow tie and suspender sets. Check each product’s fastening, adjustable sizing, dimensions and included pieces before ordering; individual bow ties and sets are listed separately. Add cufflinks when your shirt’s cuffs are designed for them, and follow the care guidance for your chosen fabric and embellishments.
