CWPR 2015 Fall/Winter

A classic wedding with a readymade tie?
We think knot! Show you mean business
by wearing and tying your own bow tie
• First things first. Get in front of a mirror.
• Adjust the bow tie for your neck size,
just as you would with a standard neck-
tie.
• Pass the right end over the left end –
again, just like a regular necktie – and
then pull on both ends, tightening the
knot form against your top shirt button.
(One tip from the fashion elite is to “put
your foot on your neck,” and then pro-
ceed to “tie your shoe.”)
• Fold the right side in half, forming a bow.
• Pass the left side over the middle of the
right folded half.
• Pull the left side down and around in the
back, forming a bow shape as you slide
it through the opening behind the right
bow.
• Adjust as necessary
• Still confused? Grab the mirror and get
in front of the computer. An online video
will give you something to mimic.
