The classic bundle for decorating a tie can even be performed by a beginner. Classics always look beautiful and neat. The knot is suitable for any accessory.

How to tie a tie:

  1. Put the shirt and tie on the neck so that its wide edge (HK) covers the belt a little.

Bow Tie Pattern

We are used to wearing a “butterfly” only for attending social events, but fashion trends have changed and now day dresses can be supplemented with such an accessory.

This tie knot looks very successful with a motley shirt, a shirt with a short sleeve, with shorts and jeans. Often in this way there are braces.

Daytime “butterflies” have a brighter color than classic evening ties. To create the first use denim, fur or knitwear, for the second - satin or silk. Despite the popularity, wearing such an accessory for work is considered bad form.

Putting on an already finished “butterfly” is considered a sign of bad taste. If elegance is important to you, then learn how to create one yourself.

Step-by-step instruction for tying:

  1. Hang the tie on the shirt so that the right end (PC) is just below the left end (LC). Ideally, if the place of thickening of the accessory is located strictly in the center.
  2. Throw the PC over the LC.
  3. Pass the PC from the bottom up into the loop that came out after the previous movements.
  4. Bend the LC so that its narrow part is in the center. The "butterfly" should already be looming. Turn the fold to the right.
  5. Pull the PC from top to bottom in front of the folded LC.
  6. Turn the PC to make a hole on the right.
  7. Put the accessory PC on your shoulder and bend its widest part.
  8. Put the bottom of the PC into the loop that came out after the fourth step.
  9. Pull the loop - this will tighten the center nodule.
  10. Correct the "butterfly", make it symmetrical.
