How To Tie A Bow Tie

Look your best for the New Year with a little help from Tom James

---

With your collar up, place the tie around your neck so that the ends hang down in front. Adjust one end to be about 1-½" longer than the other.	Cross the longer end over the shorter end and tie a single knot as you would when beginning to tie your shoe.	Pull to snug the tie against your neck. Position the knot at the narrow area of the tie.	Fold the shorter end in half at the widest part of the oval. This forms the first half of the bow. Make sure that the bow shape is facing out.
Bring the long piece to the front over the bow you have just made.	While holding the bow in place, fold the remaining end in half at the widest part of the oval as you did with the first half of the bow.	Push the second half of the bow through the loop behind the first bow. Your bow should now be formed.	Carefully pull the folded ends of the bow to tighten the knot. Fix your collar, and you are ready for a night on the town!
