A tie could tell that if a man has good taste or not. A man, who knows how to dress up himself, might also understand that choosing and matching a great tie would represent his unique beauty pursuit, and influence his social class as well.

About the Length and Width of a Tie

Firstly, a clothing expert tells us that man’s tie should not be too long or too short. To the proper length, the top of a tie just right touches the buckle, not more neither less. There are a lot of lengths and types of tie, usually speaking, a tie with better quality is a bit longer, which the standard length is 55 – inch or 56 – inch (around 139. 70cm or 142. 24cm). Besides, the width of a tie is also important, although there is no some kind of rule about this, while basically, the width of the tie should match with the width of the lapel properly. For now, the standard tie width means the width of the end of a tie which is 4 – inch to 4. 5 – inch (around 10. 16cm to 11. 43cm).

About the Color of a Tie

A survey shows, women all around the world think that the sexiest men’s image is wearing a red tie.

Apart from red, there are still lots of choices, such as blue, dark – purple, light pink, silver – grey, even black and so on.

For now, the main suits are medium – grey, dark – grey, blue, black and coffee brown, thus, it would be better to match with the ties which are warm colors as dark – red, purple and crimson, coffee and so on. If your skin slants black, the tie color should be medium - light, but not any deep color or too light. Basically, the colors of a suit and a tie should be structured matching. Light – color suit is with dark – color tie or dark – color suit is with light – color tie, then, you can’t go wrong! Furthermore, the widths of the tie, the shirt and the suit jacket should be coordinated with each other. The shirt with big peaked lapel is not suitable to be with slim tie or small lapel suit is not great to be with wide tie.

In addition, whether the colors of the tie, the shirt and the top of the suit work with each other or not is also an important issue when you are selecting a tie. Generally, the principle is no more than three kinds of colors.

Besides, dark – color suit jacket of blue, navy blue would be perfect with cool – color ties as blue, cyan and grey, with light – color shirts as sky blue or pink.
