Journal Title: Annals of the University of Oradea. Fascicle of Textiles, Leatherwork - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
The bow tie is a ribbon of material tied around the collar in a manner that forms symmetrically opposed two loop-shaped ends. The craft originated around the 17th century during the Prussian wars, when the Croatian mercenaries attached scarves around their neck to keep their shirts closed. They have been associated with certain professions such as architects, businessmen, lawyers etc. When choosing a bow tie it is very important that its size does not exceed the right size, so it can be a vulgar appearance. Style experts know that it is very important for the bow to be worn according to the size of the neck and depending on the shape of the face to create a balanced and harmonious outfit. Analyzing the evolution of the paper, the inventions of the creators and the producers' proposals identified 6 criteria for their classification. The paper presents a collection of bow ties made by the author. It is characterized by the following criteria: by the ornamentation mode (without ornamentation, embroidered, printed); by number of layers (single layer, two layers); by the nature of the materials used (textiles, natural leather); according to the fastening method (elastic fixed models, needle-mounted models); by wearing (neck, chest). Even though it has existed since 1870, today's bow tie is an elegant accessory that should not be missed in the wardrobe. It's perfect for shirts to complete a bussines-elegant outfit or to add extra elegance to casual wear.
