Tuxedo Ties in the Big City
On a recent Saturday Night my wife and I attended a Friend's Wedding at a Posh New York City Venue. Besides the Wonderful Band and Food (the Shrimps at the cocktail hour were exquisite) there was the question of Style. My wife noticed that at least 50-60% of the men were wearing Long Ties instead of the Traditional Bowtie. There were some ties of color but the most popular was the Black Silk Tie-it-Yourself Long Tie as shown Below. The Ties were worn with Laydown Collar Shirts. Yes, New York is one of the cities that sets the tone for fashion. What we are seeing now is young people enjoying the "coming back" of the Black Tie Event, however in a more casual manner. This is evident by colored vests, ties, shirts and yes the Long Tie!
