There’s no doubt about it – bow ties are in!
This past week at Toronto’s LG Fashion Week, I was struck by how many bow ties were fashionably worn on and off the runway.

I do wonder though if bow ties were ever out of fashion? People like Andre 3000 and Justin Timberlake were wearing them long ago.

For a casual look, a bow tie is best paired with a patterned shirt and jeans.

If you’re not ready to bow-it-up for daytime, it’ll always be a winning accessory for the tuxedo.

Although some celebrity women are showing bow tie appreciation, I think this is one accessory that is best left for men.
