Tying a tie - Simple instructions for a stylish tie button

Tying a tie is an art form that many of us are unfamiliar with. For those who want to look their best in a formal setting, knowing how to properly tie a tie is an essential skill. In this article, we at MANILO discuss the stylish tie button and how it can help you achieve the perfect knot every time. We'll also go through some basic tips that will make your tie look its best.

Why is tying a tie important to a man's appearance?

Tying a tie is an important part of a man's appearance as it can help to complete the outfit and give a professional and well-groomed impression. A well-tied tie shows that you make an effort to look good and adhere to etiquette.

In many professional contexts, wearing a tie is an unavoidable expectation and can help you to be respected and taken seriously. A poorly tied tie, on the other hand, can give the impression that you are sloppy or unprofessional.

Whether you're attending a professional meeting or simply having dinner with friends, a tie can drastically change your look and help you stand out from the crowd. A single piece of fabric can take any outfit to another level and exude sophistication, even if your surroundings are more relaxed. Tying your own tie not only shows that you have style, but also that you have mastered an art form that makes you look both polished and confident.

The classic tie knot is this easy

The classic tie knot is the most popular and most frequently used knot. It is easy to tie and is suitable for almost any occasion, from informal occasions to formal events.

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to tie the classic tie knot:

  1. Place your tie around your neck and slide the wide end under the narrow end.
  2. Take the wide end and pass it through the knot from the back to the front.
  3. Then take the wide end and pass it through the knot again from the back to the front.
  4. Pull the wide end through the knot and pull it tight to form the knot.

To achieve the perfect fit of the knot, make sure that the tie is straight and symmetrical. Also use the tie button to make sure the tie is in the right place and doesn't slip. If the knot is too big or too tight, carefully adjust it until it fits properly.

The double tie knot

The double tie knot, also known as the 'double Windsor', is a popular choice for formal occasions. It is larger and more eye-catching than the classic tie knot and is well suited for special occasions such as weddings or business meetings.

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to tie the double tie knot:

  1. Put your tie around your neck and slide the wide end under the narrow end.
  2. Take the wide end and pass it through the knot from the back to the front.
  3. Pass the wide end over the narrow end and then through the knot again from the back to the front.
  4. Pull the wide end over the narrow end and then pass it through the knot from the front to the back.
  5. Pull the wide end over the narrow end and then through the knot again from front to back.
  6. Pull the wide end through the knot and pull it tight to form the knot.

If you opt for the double tie knot, you should note that it takes a little more time to tie than the classic tie knot. It is best suited to formal occasions and is a good choice if you want to make a special impression. However, don't use it in informal settings as it might be a little too flashy. If you're unsure whether the double knot is the right choice, you can always opt for the classic knot, which is appropriate in almost any situation.

The half Windsor knot

The half Windsor knot is another popular choice for formal occasions. It is smaller and less noticeable than the full Windsor knot and is well suited to formal business settings or any other situation where a slightly smaller knot is desired.

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to tie the half Windsor knot:

  1. Place your tie around your neck and slide the wide end under the narrow end.
  2. Take the wide end and pass it through the knot from the back to the front.
  3. Pass the wide end over the narrow end and then through the knot again from the back to the front.
  4. Pull the wide end over the narrow end and then pass it through the knot from the front to the back.
  5. Pull the wide end through the knot and pull it tight to form the knot.

The half Windsor knot is best suited to formal business settings and is a good choice if you want to make a professional and neat impression, but the full Windsor knot seems a little too flashy. It's also a good choice for any other situation where a slightly smaller knot is desired. If you're unsure whether the half Windsor knot is the right choice, you can always go for the classic knot, which is appropriate in almost any situation.
