Fashion Etiquette

• Proper tie etiquette starts with doing the ideal knot. To keep things classic and politically correct, do a four-in-hand or a half-Windsor knot. The ends of the blades need to end at the top of the waistband of whatever pants you're wearing or at the belt buckle. Do up the top button of your shirt so the tie will properly lay and for the ideal finished appearance. To add some upscale panache to your look, include a small dimple at the base of the knot. This is indicative of understated classiness.
