Different Knots For Dress Ties

,

A neck tie can help you stand out in a sea of business suits.


The necktie is a staple of every successful businessman's wardrobe. Most men pay attention to the colors and style of their ties, but fewer men learn the multiple ways a tie can be worn. Knowing the different knots for dress ties can help you subtly stand out in a blur of business suits.


Windsor Knot


A fat knot, such as a Windsor, can help your tie make a confident statement. The Windsor knot is perfect for work events or job interviews where networking skills and an outgoing personality are required. The Windsor is a wide triangular knot usually worn with wide spread collar shirts. For wild ties, make sure the pattern size matches your body scale. If you have medium-size features, wear medium-size patterns. If you have large features, it is best to stick with solid colors.


Four-in-Hand Knot


The four-in-hand knot is another sophisticated look. The four-in-hand is a narrow, slightly asymmetrical knot. Because it is small, this knot is good for ties made from a heavy fabric. The narrow, long knot appears to lengthen the neck and is therefore recommended for men with short necks. It has been dubbed the "smarter knot" because of its humble, intellectual look.


Prince Albert


The Prince Albert knot is a stylish and compact knot suitable for shirts with long collars. It is similar to the four-in-hand knot, but an extra wraparound makes it slightly more voluminous. Also known as a double-simple knot, the Prince Albert is a good choice for long ties made of soft materials.
