Tie a Bow Tie

Hi, my name's Mark Breaux, I've been in men's tailored clothing for about twenty-five years now, and I'm going to demonstrate how to tie a bow tie for you today. When you start off with a bow tie, you want the one side to be slightly longer than the other one. Take the longer side, cross it over and up through, then you leave that facing up. Then you take this other side, flip it here and fold it so it's even on these two sections here, so they'll line up, the same width that's here, you've got to fold it at the middle. Then you take this one down and that forms a little loop there when you cross it down over the top and then you take this side and stick it through that loop, that hole in it. And you pull it tight and then you just balance them out. And then once you've got them balanced, in other words, the same distance here from the knot, then you just roll it like that so it stands up. And you just keep pulling like that until you get it to the snugness you want and set it again. And that's a bow tie.
