Vendors Offer Custom Bow Ties For Sale

By Donna Miller


Creative use of accessories has always been a way for a person to take an outfit and give it a special bit of flair. Belts, neck wear, jewelry, embellishments and more can all be used in such a way as to express one's unique sense of style and add some of their own personality to the ensemble. Sites that have custom bow ties for sale offer a product that provides so many artistic options.

During the seventeenth century, a need to keep their collars shut lead Croatian mercenaries to the idea of using scarves to keep the top closed. What started as a utilitarian item became a symbol of high fashion when it was adopted and transformed by the members of French aristocracy who set the standards for well dressed individuals. Now, both men and women wear updated versions of the accessory in multiple designs.

As a matter of tradition, this fashion accessory has long represented intelligence, sophistication and class. For those individuals with a firm sense of confidence or quirky personalities, it can also be a daring and bold statement. As people have come to accept the item as suited for everyday and casual wear, it is no longer reserved for business attire and formal occasions.

These items come in three basic design types, starting with the traditional self-tie version which looks fabulous but requires a bit of practice to achieve refined results. Pre-tied styles have bows that are sewn to retain their form and are attached by an adjustable strap around the neck. Clip on pieces are generally reserved for children and have metal clasps that hook to the collar.

Customization is usually done on the five basic tying styles. The most popular is the traditional Thistle, also called The Butterfly, which is suitable for most occasions and compliments most facial shapes. A slightly larger and more relaxed version of this is called The Jumbo Butterfly and is the look that is commonly worn when a tuxedo is required.

A shape known as The Bat Wing is also referred to as The Slim because it is formed using a straight ribbon, no more than two inches high with blunt edges which creates a modern, trendy look. A slightly asymmetric and eclectic option is The Diamond Cut which has a lot of personality in its pointed tips. The last form is The Club Round which is bold and quirky, featuring curved ends.

On these customization sites, there is typically a large selection of design, color and pattern options that may be used. All available possibilities can be used on any of the styles offered by the vendor. Many of the programs also provide the user with an opportunity to upload their own logo, artwork or photograph to use in their design and complete their vision.

Creating an accessory that fully represents one's own preferences and fashion sense has never been easier than with this simple step-by-step process. Many sites allow a lot of freedom to adjust and manipulate both the provided designs and those uploaded by the customer. This is a fun and convenient way to wear a neck piece that is truly unique.
