Just a simple poll about ties

If you wear a tie to dinner, whether on formal nights or any other night, which do you prefer? If you have a favorite, please describe it and / or post a photo. Thanks.

Bow tie with a tux....necktie with a suit!

[Laurie S.]

Bolo tie!

[Gail & Marty sailing away]

No tie ..

[OCruisers]

When DH wears a tie on a cruise, it's a bow tie with his tux.

[rkacruiser]

Neck tie with suit or sport coat; bow tie with tux

[paul929207]

I only wear a tie on formal nights and it is a bow tie to go with my tuxedo

[notentirelynormal]

Yup that's what my DH wears.

[Kartgv]

Formal Nights: Tux= Bow Tie; Suit= Neck Tie

[tip]

I do not wear a tux, so no bow tie for me. I wear a tie with my nave blue blazer. Quite frankly I would prefer to wear no tie at all. They really serve no purpose and are about as useful as screen doors on a submarine!:rolleyes:

Not true. Ties prevent food drippings from staining my shirt. ;)

I don't know how useful you may find this, but lots of women find men in ties very attractive. Can you leverage that into something useful?

"Like!" :D

 

I wear a tie and dark suit on formal night.

Not really. We have been married for 42 years and I find no reason whatsoever to attract anyone other than my wife.;)

[Lerin]

Voted for my husband.

Actually didn't at all, but voted the way I wish my husband would dress. ;) Tie

[mapsmith]

Bow tie with Tux OR Bolo.

Regular necktie with Dress Shirt, (with or without jacket)

Bolo Tie when feeling Southwestern. (I have about 6 various ones including a rare Pacific Northwest Indian Silver one)

[screwsmcernst]

DH only wears a tie on formal night. Tux or dark suit, he wears a dark tie. He doesn't care for bow ties much.

I am taking my BF and several other friend (their first cruise) on my next cruise in August on the Carnival Magic, I know he doesn't have a suit or a tux, he is a country boy, starched wrangler and button down shirts, nice cowboy boots, he has one pair of slacks that I know of and I can can buy him a shirt and tie, does he need to to the whole jacket business?

He'll be fine without a jacket. You're likely to see several men not wearing a jacket on Formal Night. In fact, don't be surprised if you see some not wearing a tie either.

Not a fan of the tie/shirt option...looks too much like a store manager :eek:

I see you didn't get the "Fun Friday" response :D:D:D

[EdmPair]

Found myself smiling at a few responses as I call the more common tie a long tie where several called it a neck tie. If you contrast a bow tie with a nick tie, it sounds to me like you put the bow tie some other place. I am not judging here but am observing.

 

For the record, I once owned a bow tie. I wonder where it is? All formal events for me get a long tie.

 

Store manager ties are rayon or acetate. Formal events call for silk or wool.

Uh....if your wife likes you in a tie or bow tie, isn't that reason enough?
