How beautiful and quickly tie a thin tie?

The width of a men's tie, like the fashion for it, is constantly changing. A special trend in recent years is the increased relevance of retro style and the return to fashion of a narrow tie.

If in the 60s of the 20th century, men adhered to special rules for wearing this stylish accessory, nowadays a narrow tie is tied to almost any clothing.

In addition, in the current age fashion is moving away from the idea that the tie is an exclusively male element. Now the narrow tie "herring", which was given the name for its appearance, is also found in fashionable female images.

And it is in women's ties that the most unusual and sophisticated design solutions are sometimes embodied.

It is important to understand which tie is called narrow, because the thickness of this accessory can vary considerably. The optimal width of a narrow tie is considered to be 3.7 - 6.2 cm. Wider models look traditional, and narrower ones are suitable for creating an image in retro style. The length of the herring tie can also vary. But it is recommended to adhere to the following rule: the tip of the tie in the bound state must reach the top of the belt buckle. As for trousers with lowered fit, the optimal distance between the tip of a tie and a belt is 2.5 - 4 cm.

The advantages of narrow ties include:

• Ease of tying, compared with a traditional tie.

• Versatility. Tie "herring" is suitable for any image: from a strict office, to the daring club. This type of tie perfectly combines with various elements of clothing: pants and jeans, jackets and cardigans, all kinds of shirts and jumpers.

• Narrow tie is not suitable for people who are inclined to corpulence. In their case, fit the traditional width of ties. Harmoniously, such a tie will look on slender young people who want to look stylish.

• Tie "herring" for the most part is a youth accessory. Because of his free and slightly rebellious style, he is often completely opposed to the conservative tie of traditional width.

• This type of tie is not combined with other massive accessories, such as watches with a large dial, massive chains, heavy rings, etc.
