? Q&A About Bow Ties

What are the different types of bowties?

The different types of bowties include pre-tied, self-tie (freestyle), clip-on, and various shapes such as butterfly, batwing, diamond point, and narrow straight. Each style offers a distinct look, with the butterfly being the most traditional and widely recognized shape.

What are the three common bow types?

The three most common bow tie types are the butterfly (also called the thistle shape), the batwing (straight or slim), and the diamond point. The butterfly is the fullest and most traditional style, the batwing is sleeker with straight ends, and the diamond point features pointed ends for a distinctive look.

What is the difference between butterfly and classic bowtie?

The difference between butterfly and classic bowtie is primarily in the shape and size, with butterfly bowties being fuller and wider at the ends. The butterfly style (sometimes called the "thistle") has a more pronounced hourglass shape, while the classic bowtie (often called a batwing) has straighter, narrower edges.
