hey i'm charles from louis purple and
i'm going to teach you how to tie a bow
tie today
so
you can wear bow ties with
mostly most typically with winged
collars that works well with tuxedos but
we don't see too many people wearing it
nowadays and people
go with like wear bow ties with like
small spread collars and i think that's
how they look best
so let's go back to how to tie the bow
tie
so the way you want to start is to have
um the right hand depending if you're
like left hand head or right-handed
whichever is more convenient for you
one end is going gonna be longer than
the other one you don't want uh
depending on the kind of finish you have
on your bow tie uh you might want to
adjust
the length so that you have enough width
to tie the knot and and make it
and make it easy for yourself so
so this is where you start the
right hand should be slightly longer
because i'm right-handed
you go
over
the shorter end
pull it out under
that's step one
and you don't worry about the longer
side
so once you're in this position it's
pretty much like tying a shoelace
so what you want to do is bring up the
shoulder side
sideways like this
pull down
the longer part over and then i will
it will be the the middle of the knot
and then all you have to do
is
fold
the the pot in your right hand and slide
it inside the loop that you created
and then you
just gently tighten the knot
and it's like magic then the knot starts
to you just pull on on different ends
like uh the ones that are opposed to
each other so if you're pulling the back
end with your right hand you want to
pull the front end with your left hand
and then until you start adjusting the
knot and making it however fluffy you'd
like it to be and that's how you tie
your bow tie pretty easy isn't it
