Black Tie Etiquette

The black bow tie has famously given its name to the Black Tie Dress Code, but this accessory is also an essential requirement when wearing a tuxedo or dinner jacket ensemble. This neckwear will be appropriate for any formal evening dress code that includes the words “Black Tie.” Its timeless single-end bow type will frame your face perfectly and ensure you make a memorable impact.

Do not forget the other accessories typical of Black Tie. For the most elegant appearance, it is important to match the facings of your tuxedo to your accessories like neckwear. Therefore, if your dinner jacket has moire on the lapels, you should have a bow tie in the same material. Be sure to select an appropriate waist covering, like a matching cummerbund, and consider a boutonniere as well: traditionally, gentlemen wore a rose or carnation with evening ensembles

Exclusive Silk Moire

Silk moire is a type of fabric that exhibits a distinctive watery or wavy pattern, almost like a rippled texture. This effect is achieved through a finishing process called calendaring, where two layers of silk fabric are pressed together under heat and pressure. When those layers are slightly offset, the distinctive moire pattern is created on the surface of the silk, giving it an appearance of depth and movement. Often used in formal attire, silk moire is prized for its luxurious sheen and subtle patterning.

Care

Cleaning

Silk and blended silk neckwear should not be washed immersed in water as doing so can ruin the texture and color of the silk. Instead, spot clean your neckwear using the following steps.

Gently blot any excess stain with a soft, dry cloth. Do not rub as this can damage the fabric.

Fill a small bowl with lukewarm water and add a few drops of mild detergent specifically designed for silk.

Dip a corner of a clean, white cloth into the solution and test it on a hidden area of the tie to ensure it doesn’t cause discoloration.

If the test is successful, lightly dab the stained area with the dampened cloth. Use a gentle tapping motion and do not saturate the silk.

Moisten another clean cloth with plain lukewarm water and gently dab the area to remove any soap residue.

Pat the cleaned area with a dry cloth to absorb moisture, then leave the tie laid flat on a towel to air dry completely.

If the stain does not respond to the these steps, take the neckwear to a professional dry cleaner experienced in handling delicate garments.

Storage

To prevent heavy creasing, never store your neckwear tied or knotted.

Undo the knot and then roll the necktie up in a firm but not excessively tight coil.

Allow it to sit in the coil for about a day to relax wrinkles.

To prevent wrinkles, store your silk neckwear hanging, flat, or in a very loose roll.

No Sizing Necessary

Because of how it is sized and worn, this formal evening single end bow tie requires no precise sizing and can be worn by anybody, making it an attractive solution for those who do not wish to worry about sizing issues.
