What kind of tie do you need?

The history know a lot of type of ties: from those wide big pieces of white ties used in the 19-th century by French aristocrats, to the nowadays futuristic and modernistic ties, with printed texts from the Bible, or other inventions of the modern designers. In this article, I would like to give you some support and advice and help you decide what kind of tie you really need: a thick tie or a narrow one, a silk tie, or a cotton one. Let’s find out!

First of all, decide what kind of person you are, or, at least, what kind of person would you like to be like, who do you want to show in front of your business partners, colleagues, friends, etc. Starting from this, you will decide how you really want your tie to be. If you would like to show a person that is full of energy, dynamic, in constant search to achieve new horizons, then a tie in light and bright colors is what you are looking for. Take one in light brown, light blue, with yellow patterns, in silver tones, and for sure you will not be wrong.

On the other hand, if you a looking to show a person that is unlikely to make major and sudden changes, that follows a constant and classical way of taking decisions, that is not into the rush of making new innovations and bring too much changes in their life, then a tie in dark colors, but not in too much contrast with the general nuance of the suit or the shirt. The tie must not make a very contrasting background, this is why you need a color either in dark blue, dark green, dark grey, even black or brown, with some rigid shapes, coherent stripes or spots that will not attract too much attention to it. 

In the last decade there’s a trend of thickening the ties, as it is considered the thicker they are, the more masculine and impressive they look. A big knot, a wide tie they will look always good and will transmit a message of chic, class and good taste. From my point of view, thick ties are a very good choice, either for a special event, such like a wedding or a birthday or a presentation, or for a casual day-by-day work suit, where you have to look classy, too and you need a boost of confidence where you’re in front of your colleagues or business partners.

This is why I would recommend you to buy a thick silk tie, that will add more class to your outfit, and I can even recommend you a place where you can find some of the best silk ties, at very affordable prices and with fast delivery.
