| Gingham tie from Asos |
Did ties become more cool to wear nowadays? well, it depends what type and how would you wear it but generally It looks like it is....
Over the last few seasons we have witnessed men's designers adding ties to their lines, this category is expending and is not just the property of business or corporate men anymore, the variety of men's neckties is inspiring and they became a fun and cool accessory even for the casual dresser and the hipster guy.
Skinny Ties - As a result of the above change the silhouettes of ties (like most men's clothing categories) got slimmer, the 3.5" wide ties a la European style were pushed aside making room for the 2.5" wide and less ties, the fabrics choices are getting nontraditional with versions in wool, cotton, cashmere, linen and seersucker among others, and the colors and patterns are pushing the envelope even more with mufti color plaids and bold stripes or checks taking over. A skinnier tie in fabrics such wool, cotton and even knit (with a cut off edge which i never got) as oppose to the classic silk ones can be worn with a more casual jacket or jeans and sneakers, the traditional matching rules of dress shirts and tie do not apply here, you can wear plaid on plaid, mix colors and patterns and it doesn't need to be as restricted to wear a tie anymore (unless its business or black tie suits we are talking about) the tie can be worn looser on your neck while your shirt doesn't have to be tucked in...or you can wear your tie with a denim shirt.....
