Most Bowties that I own are not of the same quality and lack the attention to detail. such as the unique pointed end and the classic timeless glen check pattern. further more you will not find such a harmony between quality and style but yet this has both!

Care

Cleaning

Silk and blended silk neckwear should not be washed immersed in water as doing so can ruin the texture and color of the silk. Instead, spot clean your neckwear using the following steps.

Gently blot any excess stain with a soft, dry cloth. Do not rub as this can damage the fabric.

Fill a small bowl with lukewarm water and add a few drops of mild detergent specifically designed for silk.

Dip a corner of a clean, white cloth into the solution and test it on a hidden area of the tie to ensure it doesn't cause discoloration.

If the test is successful, lightly dab the stained area with the dampened cloth. Use a gentle tapping motion and do not saturate the silk.

Moisten another clean cloth with plain lukewarm water and gently dab the area to remove any soap residue.

Pat the cleaned area with a dry cloth to absorb moisture, then leave the tie laid flat on a towel to air dry completely.

If the stain does not respond to the these steps, take the neckwear to a professional dry cleaner experienced in handling delicate garments.

Storage

To prevent heavy creasing, never store your neckwear tied or knotted.

Undo the knot and then roll the necktie up in a firm but not excessively tight coil.

Allow it to sit in the coil for about a day to relax wrinkles.

To prevent wrinkles, store your silk neckwear hanging, flat, or in a very loose roll.

The Glory of Glen Check

This elegant day bow tie has been woven with a timeless glen check pattern. Glen check is characterized by small and large checks, typically using muted colors that create an irregular checkerboard appearance. In this example, we have opted for a deep shade of black and white to offer the widest combination of color coordination. 

The classic black and white glen check pattern exudes timeless elegance, making it a versatile accessory that can complement a variety of outfits. Whether you're dressing up for a formal event or adding a touch of refinement to a casual ensemble, this bow tie is sure to make a statement. The pointed end design adds a modern twist to the traditional bow tie, giving it a unique and stylish edge.

Consider wearing it with a crisp white dress shirt and a tailored black or charcoal suit. The monochromatic color scheme will create a sleek and polished look, perfect for evening events or important meetings.

For a more relaxed yet still dapper appearance, you can pair the bow tie with a light gray blazer and dark denim jeans. This combination strikes the right balance between casual and sophisticated, making it suitable for a variety of occasions.

Accessorizing is key to completing your look. Opt for a pocket square in a complementary color or pattern to add a touch of flair. A pair of classic cufflinks and a sleek wristwatch will further enhance your ensemble, ensuring you look put-together from head to toe. Don't forget to choose the right footwear; polished black leather shoes or loafers will tie the entire outfit together seamlessly.

Decadent Silk with a Dignified Pattern

We searched out a heritage silk mill in Italy to produce the fabric for this neckwear. Silk from a small, high-end weaver in Italy offers numerous benefits. The exclusivity of the material ensures that each piece is unique, often reflecting the artisanal expertise and centuries-old weaving traditions of the region. High-quality Italian silk is renowned for its superior strength, natural sheen, and softness, which contribute to both its luxurious feel and durability. Additionally, purchasing from a smaller producer supports local craftsmanship and provides a level of customization and attention to detail that mass-produced fabrics can't match. This bespoke approach to fabric creation allows for a more sustainable production process, with an emphasis on quality over quantity, and often results in a product that is as much a piece of art as it is a textile.

Silk neckwear with a classic check pattern offer a sophisticated blend of style and functionality. Check is a classic design that exudes elegance and can easily be paired with various suit colors and styles, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe. This iconic pattern also adds a touch of heritage and refinement, distinguishing the wearer in both business and social settings. Its silk material provides a luxurious sheen and smooth texture, ensuring a polished look for any formal occasion. Additionally, silk's natural properties allow the neckwear to hold its shape and resist wrinkles throughout the day.

Simple Adjustable Sizing

Your bow tie has an adjustable neck size, meaning that it can be altered to accommodate your desired fit and comfort.

Simply remove the metal t-bar from the sizing loop and increase or decrease the length of the bow tie as needed, reinserting the bar into the desired slot when you have found your desired size.

How to Style a Bow Tie

A perfectly symmetrical self-tied bow tie is almost impossible to achieve, and it too closely resembles the artificial appearance of a cheap-looking pre-tied bow tie. Therefore, take advantage of the spontaneity and unique look of a self-tied bow tie by embracing a nonchalant approach.

How so? Intentionally leave one end of the bow tie a little longer than the other, or one side higher than the other, for an organic, sprezzatura-inspired appearance. You can also vary the tightness or looseness of the knot for more formal or casual looks. The result is a bow tie that is definitively styled your way and that will fit your personality.

What makes this silk bow tie with check pattern so special?

The majority of modern bow ties come in only one or two boring styles with flimsy interlining and oversized, obtrusive proportions that were especially popular in the 1970s and 1990s. Fort Belvedere, however, has revived the classic bow tie varieties that made the glorious 1930s a part of the Golden Age of Menswear, with smaller, neater bow ties that are subtle and sophisticated.

You can check effortlessly class off the list with our selection of checked fabrics from Fort Belvedere. Featuring both dynamic lines and harmonious colors, checked bow ties are an ideal way to introduce color into your look without looking gaudy or overwhelming, because the strong lines help to impart an ordered, refined appearance.

Details & Specs

Mini Pink Carnation with purple pocket square and glen check silk bow tie - all by Fort Belvedere

  • Decadent Jacquard Silk

    Fort Belvedere sources exceptional jacquard woven silk created by a family-owned mill that has been producing some of the finest silks in the world for over 100 years. In a jacquard weave, the pattern is constructed directly into the fabric itself. We then print our classically-inspired design directly onto the jacquard-woven base. This production model is more labor-intensive than conventionally printed fabrics, but doing so ensures that your bow tie has a unique look with rich colors and exceptional texture.

  • Classic Check Pattern

    Check patterns have stood the test of time in classic menswear due to their inherent versatility and visual appeal. Their geometric regularity provides a sartorial rhythm that can complement the structured lines of traditional men’s tailoring, while the variety within check patterns—from subtle glen plaids to bold tartans—allows for both understated elegance and expressive individuality. Additionally, checks can seamlessly integrate with other wardrobe staples, serving as either a statement piece or a sophisticated background, adaptable across various fabrics and seasons. This adaptability makes check patterns an enduring choice for those looking to balance timeless style with personal flair.

  • Perfect Bow Tie Size

    When tied, this bow tie has classically proportioned dimensions of approx. 4" by 2" or 10 cm by 5 cm.

  • Classic Pointed Ends

    One of the most classic shapes, this bow tie features the pointed ends that were typical for both social and business occasions during the Golden Age of Menswear.

  • Adjustable Sizing

    Our sliding neck-size adjuster was designed to be
    simple and easy to use, so you can achieve a custom fit to your exact
    size with ease. When you are in a rush, you can even unhook the adjuster
    clasp and leave the knot tied for convenience, although, for regular
    wear, we do recommend untying the knot to avoid wrinkles and premature
    wear, and aging.
