Bow Tie History

While bow ties have not been around for quite as long as traditional neckties, they certainly make more of a statement.
The bowtie was created in the 1700’s after sailors began tying their shirts closed with a scarf. They were working men who didn’t want to have a necktie hanging from their neck, and thus the beginning of a smaller neck accessory came to be.

Since then, bowties have become associated with both formalwear as well as more expressive industries. They come in all fabrics from cotton to silk to wool to velvet and can be worn in most situations.
