This is obvious - any tie for adults is tied. The exception is the butterfly, which is attached with an elastic band. For children, the process of putting on a tie is really no different. So you need to tie a knot. Don't worry, you have come to the right place. Here you will find clear illustrations and simple instructions that will make it easy for you to learn how to tie any tie knot. Choose from popular knots such as the Windsor, Four in Hand, or Simple Knot. If you are a complete beginner, buy your child a self-tying bow tie at the store.
Then start practicing with your child in front of the mirror. Try turning this process into a game.
How to tie a “full Windsor”
A classic knot and one of the most common, this knot is loved by style icons such as James Bond, Sean Connery and Tom Ford. Wear it with a more traditional, loose-fitting suit and tie. This knot is also good to use with a stand-up collar.
Step-by-step instruction:
- Place the tie face up on your neck.
- Place the wide part of the tie over the narrow part (as if crossing them over each other).
- Grasp the wide end, pull it up from under the narrow end and pass it over the collar.
- Pull the end down again in the opposite direction.
What is Half Windsor
Unless you are an English footballer, this knot is usually worn in more formal settings. Something that would require a morning suit and a butterfly collar.
How to tie a 4-handed knot
Thin but not skinny, the four-in-hand knot is the most commonly used knot. It's also a little simpler than the Windsor knot and will look good in almost any situation. Tip: Do not use this knot with a tuxedo.
Step-by-step instruction:
- Place the wide end of the tie over the thin end (from left to right);
- Next, pass the wide end under the small end;
- Next, tie a standard knot (like on sneakers);
- Now pass the narrow end under the wide end;
- Tighten the knot by pulling the wide end down. Insert the knot up and create the perfect center of the tie.
What is a simple node
A simple knot is just that: simple. It's suitable if you want a very small knot, something like a 1940s style. This knot can also be used with a narrow tie. Just keep in mind that if you wear a skinny tie, be sure to wear a skinny suit. The width of the lapel should not exceed two inches.
How to tie a bow tie
Bow ties are actually not that difficult to tie, and self-tied ones look much better than pre-tied ones. Especially if you wear it with a tuxedo.Let's put it this way: James Bond wouldn't go anywhere near a pre-tied bow tie, and who in this world looks better in a tuxedo? Believe me, your little one will feel like a real Agent 007 with this tie.
