Step 1

Drape the necktie around your collar and start with the wider end extending approximately 12 inches below the narrow end; cross it over.

Wrap the wide end around, and bring it up over and through the loop between the collar and the tie. Then pull it down toward the front.

Step 3

Curl the wide end that is left behind the narrow end.

Bring the wide end back up again through the loop.

Put down through loop and pull around across narrow end as shown.

Finally, pull down on the wide end carefully to tighten and draw up the knot snugly to your collar.

If both ends don’t meet perfectly, simply start over and adjust the length of your tie accordingly. Make sure your collar falls nicely all around, and center the knot as best you can.
