Bowties: Not just for Professors Anymore

What is your vision of someone that wears bow ties? 



Nerd?



 Professor?







Black Muslim?





Formal Wear?




Today, many are wearing bow ties as part of their ensemble making a statement of boldness and individuality.  Bow ties are not only being seen in the classrooms and at formal events but they're also being worn by Fortune 500 executives, entertainers, musicians, etc.  The bow ties of today come in many colors and patterns for both business and casual wear.  What are your thoughts?  Personally, I like them and I plan to start back wearing them.  Let's take a look at them.

There are ready-to-wear bow ties as well as ones that you have to tie yourself.  The well dressed man opts for the latter.  Do you know how to tie a bow tie?  For an illustration of how to tie a Bow Tie click on the link below.

By the way, remember that nice tie that you ruined because you spilled coffee on it?  Instead of throwing it away I have just the solution.  Anastasia Green can turn that tie into a custom made bow tie.  Check her out at:
