Men's Neckties
In this section we will cover the many different styles of men's neckties and tell you how to choose the right one according to the occasion.
Neckties for men's have been around since ages, it seems and they have been there doing what they are intended for; making men look smarter and more impressive. Today, they are considered to be an essential part of men's clothing. Whether it is a formal occasion like facing an interview or attending seminars or business meets, or even a wedding, they are are responsible for making men look so impressive in their suits. Comparing a man wearing a suit but no necktie with a man who is wearing matching necktie on his suit, we find that despite being a simple accessory, necktie adds glamour and value to the apparel that a man is wearing and makes him look more attractive in the eyes of the opposite sex.
If you look around, you will find that men's neckties can be broadly divided into three categories though there may be people wearing ties that are abstract or have a pattern that cannot be classified into any category. These three categories are stripes, solid plains, and the printed or patterned ties. Though you can wear any style on any occasion, each is meant to be worn on different occasions.
Styles Of Men's Neckties
Solid Color Neckties
Plain or solid color men's neckties are the most flexible in the sense that they can be used on different apparel and on many types of occasions. I have seen people looking great in plain neck ties even when they have worn them on jeans. Fabric of the tie doesn't matter. It can be satin, silk or jacquard. Dark colored plain neckties look very beautiful with any shirt and trouser combination. Your wardrobe is incomplete if you do not have maroon, green, navy blue, black and brown plain ties in it. These neckties should never be underestimated as they enhance your total personality and make you look more elegant and sophisticated. Anyone wearing neckties looks more stylish and more presentable
Striped Neckties
Striped men's neckties are the hall mark of a successful man. You will find all executives and managers who are in the higher rungs of administration wearing these striped ties. These ties are suitable for all occasions. For winters dark background and light colored stripes are perfect while in summers, its reverse can be worn with great effect. The size of the stripes you choose is dependant on your height and weight. In general, if you are bulky, avoid those ties in which the stripes are wide and have huge spaces.
Patterned Neckties
Printed or patterned neckties are most suitable for casual attire and for wearing on the weekends. If you are going to a club or a dance party, you can use these printed neckties to great effect. These prints are varied in size and colors. Some can be said to be a riot of colors while others are combination of only two colors. Size of prints is also important. If you are slim and tall, wearing big prints will not look good on you. Whatever may be your choice, men's neckties are a great addition to the wardrobe and you must have a decent collection to look impressive and stylish on all occasions.
