Re: Who loves bow ties
Bow ties suddenly have a very hip, elegant swag to them with the single set.
Never bought from any of these places but here's a couple. I am sure there are a lot more.

I am tempted to try a hand painted one.

Re: Who loves bow ties
I still have some from about 25 years ago. I first started wearing them that long ago when they were painfully out of step, along with bolo ties which were/are nothing short of bizarre so far from the US southwest. I used to wear the bolos with short-sleeve dress-shirts, also an oddity outside of the "geek squad" crowd.
I haven't worn either in years, though I still keep them in my closet. I figure I might get defiant enough to start wearing them again some day. If nothing else they should come in handy to embarrass my daughter when she is a teen ...

Re: Who loves bow ties
I'd love to wear a bow tie to work but it would be just too much of a statement in the industry I'm in.

Re: Who loves bow ties
You could also order one of these just to see what makes it tick. Not exactly a bank breaker.

Re: Who loves bow ties
Its a rare bloke indeed that can pull off a bow tie here in Oz. Even more so these days when hipsters both ironic and otherwise have grasped the bow tie with both skinny white tattooed wrists.
I get the impression that in England and USA theres a bit more room to move and acceptance of the bow tie as non costumey.
Here its largely the preserve of surgeons where it not only fits in ok but is preferred for health safety and infection reasons.
Other than dinner suit I'd never even consider one.
