Black Paisley Bow Tie

Our black paisley bow tie is darker than most paisley sets: a charcoal-black ground printed with paisley teardrops, picked out in small touches of blush pink so the pattern shows when someone stands close. It comes pre-tied, with a matching pocket square and a pair of cufflinks in the same design.

Black Paisley Bow Tie with a Pink Accent

That hint of pink is useful. It links your outfit to a blush bridesmaid dress, a pink boutonniere or a partner's rose-coloured gown without committing to a full pink tie. From a distance the bow still reads dark, so it sits correctly with a black tuxedo or a charcoal suit at a Gatsby party, a winter wedding or a jazz club night.

How the Pre-Tied Bow Tie Fits

The bow measures about 4.72 x 2.36 in (12 x 6 cm), a classic butterfly size for standard and slim lapels. The neck band adjusts from about 11.81 to 22.44 in (30 to 57 cm) and closes at the back with a metal hook, so it fits most adult collars. The fabric has a satin finish with a silk-like sheen. More bows, plain and patterned, are in our bow ties.

Paisley Bow Tie FAQ

Do I need to know how to tie a bow tie?

No. The bow is already tied; you set the band length, pass it under your collar and fasten the hook behind your neck.

How should I fold the pocket square?

A flat fold with one straight edge above the pocket keeps the paisley calm. A puff fold shows more of the pink.

Is it a good groomsmen gift?

Yes. Bow, pocket square and cufflinks come together as one set, so each groomsman gets a complete look in a single box.
