One of the earliest forms of westernized neckwear, the bowtie is subtext for sophistication and intellectualism due to it’s history of being worn but doctors, lawyer, architects, professors and the like. However subtext aside bowties can be worn by anyone (Male Identifying, Female Identifying, Non Binary) in both formal and casual settings.
I learned how to tie a bow tie about 10 years ago from a youtube video so I figured I'd make one of my own. Though many videos break down the steps, few use multiple types of bowties to help you learn best. I've included the Butterfly, Diamond Point, and Modified Butterfly and examples on how to style them. There is no greater sartorial skill then knowing how to tie a real bow tie. With this tutorial you can get rid of you pre tied, clip on, little boy bow ties and graduate to the expert levels of trying that tie.

Which outfit was your favorite?
Were you able to tie a bow tie?
1 is my favorite but they are all the bees knees! 🐝
#3 was my favorite outfit, including the look with the tie, but #2 was my favorite tie on its own. Funny how a tie can add so much to the final visual result!
So true!!
Cheers!! Thanks for watching ✌🏾
#3!
25 videos and you were the one that finally taught me how to do it correctly
God, i was at a 20s party the other day, everyone had clip ons suspenders and ties, and i was just crying in my corner with my button on suspenders and proper bow tie.
Haha
Yeah I would feel total cringe for them.
"little boys bow tie...." I never felt so attacked hahahaha x)
Super smart to use a tie with different colored sides at first, it made it way easier to follow along! I'll definitely be forwarding this to my fiance for our wedding. Thanks!
When it comes to teaching someone with 10 thumbs how to tie a bowtie, your youtube video is the best! Made my day, and keep teaching!
I just need to say this.
HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO ABOUT BOWTIES OF ALL TIME AND I AM LITERALLY SCREAMING RIGHT NOW. 😭😭😭🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Number 2 was my favorite, but the dance moves on all of them were great! You are a great teacher, so patient and measured!
I thought I had an idea of how a bowtie would be tied but I was so wrong 🤣
And trying to pick a favorite outfit is almost impossible - they're all amazing ❤️
Thanks so much!!
Can I just say I’m obsessed with the music 🧡🧡🧡
Many thanks!
This is going to be so useful for me to help my customers when they dont know how to tie a bow tie!
I’m so glad it’ll be helpful!! Thanks for watching.
"Menswear or male identifying dress" Thank you
abomination, some might say.
As a nonbinary folk who is into both vintage men and women's fashion, I can't thank you enough, Dandy! I'm so glad to find you, it's great to have more vintage men's fashion content on youtube, you make them 100 times better though. keep 'em coming, love from Turkey! 🧡
Thanks for watching and this comment! It’s so important to me to put out inclusive and positive content highlight the diversity within the world vintage scene.
@@DandyWellington The line "if you are new to menswear or male identifying dress" made me smile so much thank you
booo
@@DandyWellington when men and women had very defined social roles, isn't that kind ironic
I love the aesthetic of grey and burgundy together, so outfit #3 was my favourite. Thank you for making this fun, informative tutorial!
Thanks so much for watching!! If anyone you know needs to learn how to tie a bow tie, I them! ✌🏾
Your videos are great, but I was very inspired by this one! I’ll be making a ton of bow ties for my sons now (and maybe for myself)! Also, your music is so enjoyable, I’ll have to download it!
Keep me updated!!
Yes! The official Dandy Wellington method! Absolutely marvelous!
Cheers!!
You're the best! I have spent the last two years of my life trying to tie this knot and I always gave up because was so frustrating, I saw your video and in minutes I did it. Thank you so much! Now is time to the Vintage era!
Outfit number 2 definitely my favorite! Absolutely loved the video!
This is so helpful!!! Thank you! Bowties are less intimidating now
Handsome as always. What thickness of fabric works best for your bowties? Thin silks, thicker brocades? Do you get them someplace special or all over NY? Hoping I can find a great pattern to make my own so glad to learn about the adjustment to necksize for the length. Or do you have to keep it about the width of your eyes, it looks like, when folded? I am living vicariously through your style.
Also loved yourblue windowpane....light blue or is it grey spots jacket..your prince of Wales 3 piece perfect for fall and winter..hey for me 3 out of 4 ain't bad
100% THE best video I have seen on how to tie a bow te- great explanation, the only one I have seen explaining which hands do what. SO east to follow -you saved my week teaching me this!
Thank you bro!! Your video was the one that finally helped me !!
I wore a suit and a bow tie to my winter formal this year. I think I was the only one in a real self-tie and it made me feel very fancy. The education on collar types was SO helpful, thank you! I love your content.
I have a menswear for womxn class coming up, You can take it to learn more.
Thank sir. I'm now prepared for my V.P. interview. This is my first bow tie wearing.
You are a fun and cool cat!!!…I was in a bind while tryna go to a holiday party and didn’t know how to tie a bow-tie. You saved the day 👍🏿
You’re the 4th bow tie video I watched and finally got it on. Thanks!
I love the plaid and green, and the checkered bow ties! Are they vintage or can they be found somewhere?
Came over from Abby Cox. You had me at Captain Planet.
I really like your way of teaching. And your humor just puts a huge smile on my face! :)
Thanks very much. I tried to do something different but clear.
For me, 3 was my favorite. I did not realize so much went into bow ties. Thank you.
Well... thank you very much, good sir.
That was both entertaining and educational.
And now I must go forth and buy a metric butt-tonne of bowties.
Of course! Enjoy them.
I learned how to tie a bow tie when I worked in a suit shop, so I could help the customers. I didn't know the trick with folding the 'wings' forwards, though! Super useful, I was always fumbling when trying to find the hole to push the back bit through (it sounds so weird like this haha), thanks!
My favourite outfit has to be nr. 3, just so classic! I loved your dance at the end :)
I Always love your videos! Keep them coming & have a Dandy day🎩🧳❤️😍
Great.. you make me want to put a bow tie on right away 😂
haha that's the idea!
Hi! Where do you buy your shirts and collars?
You are my new hero. The video I didn't know I needed, but will now be bookmarked for reference :)
Amazing!! Thanks
Omg! All your outfits are on point!
Oh my god, this video came at the perfect moment! I've started to incorporate ties in my outifts but couldn't for the life of me understand how get around the bow tie! What a saviour!
Hi Dandy! I’m Timothy ‘ Big Pretty’ Crowe of Big Pretty Man, the channel for XL man who wants to live large and in charge. Thank you for this Bow-tie tutorial. Best I’ve seen on TH-cam. Love your vintage style. You know patterns and contrasts like a pro. If ever in Philly hit me up. We satorial advisors on TH-cam have to stick together!
Talk about Dandy
Can you do some collections videos?
Loved it, and can you do an ascot?
Will do!
Number 3. Great tutorial!
Outfit number 3 is my favorite although I do love them all.
Cheers!
Thank you for this! I wear a bow tie 3-5 times a year so I have to keep coming back to TH-cam to relearn. This time for Dapper Day, the outfit will include a green pair of Dandy Wellington's from American Duchess!
Your presentation was WONDERFUL! Very well done!
Literally having peanut butter and jelly (preserves actually...yeah I’m bougie, so what) as he mentions peanut butter and jelly...and joining in chorus, “it’s all about the bread.” #peanutbutterjellytime
Ok. I’m sorry! I’m done now. Really. Please continue.
Sewrena sent me! This looks so exciting and informative too! I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos! 👋😊🧡⭐ I liked Number 1 and 3 equally! 🤣
Thank you sir! I have always appreciated the bow tie and alas have several of the pre-tied variety. But now... armed with your very well-done tutorial, I will seek out loose bow ties and proudly tie them myself. I am so jazzed to see someone like me that enjoys vintage clothing and dressing snappy. Cheers!
Love the video. I have no idea why the other trillion or so videos I watched made it so complicated and convoluted. Thanks for taking the time to put this together.
I loved all the outfits at the end. It's impossible to select one as my absolute favourite. Totally crash and on fleek. Truly shiny. They make me pine for the days when men's fashion was actually fashionable. Of course I wasn't alive back then and we aren't supposed to miss what we never had; but somehow I do.
It isn't relevant to bow ties or men's fashion in general but for those interested here are the lyrics to the Captain Planet theme song. Thanks for the Captain Planet reference as well.
"earth!" "fire!" "wind!" "water!" "heart!"
"go planet!"
"by your powers combined, i am captain planet!"
captain planet, he's a hero
gonna take pollution down to zero
he's our powers magnified
and he's fighting on the planets side
captain planet, he's a hero
gonna take pollution down to zero
gonna help him put asunder
bad guys who like to loot and plunder
"you'll pay for this captain planet!"
"we're the planeteers, you can be one too!"
"cuz saving our planet is the thing to do!"
"looting and polluting is not the way!"
"hear what captain planet has to say!"
"the power is yours!"
Brother, this is hands down the best bow tie video I've ever seen. And I'm not just saying that cuz we're both black - lol seriously this is amazing! And I love the style, the dancing, all of they thought you mixed in. Amazing.
About the best tutorial/encouraging-video-what-makes-one-want-to-wear-a-bow-tie........out there:-) I'm off to tie a bow tie :-)
Your got me convinced. I'm gonna make bowties. And tie them, and wear them, ah I'm so excited!
Until then; have you got any plans on making a video on ties? I like the way you tie yours! I've noticed in other videos the way it "pokes out" (Is that how you would describe it? English is not my first language) . Anyway I think it looks nice and it would be cool to hear your thoughts on them! When do you reach for a tie and when a bowtie? Is it mood? Occation? And also DIMPLES! I've understood that is a thing and I haven't quite mastered how to make nice dimples. Im practicing tho! :D
Thanks for your enthusiastic nerdy love for fashion! I really enjoy your videos!
Thanks so much for this! Definitely the most engaging tie tutorial I've ever seen! (Fav outfit #1, w/ that cherry blossom tie!)
Finally a bow tie tutorial that makes sense.
Excellent video..dandy the way I tie my bow tie is like tying my shoes..its not difficult as you know..every outfit is superb but then again you are a well dressed..outfit?..I like your light blue sports jacket..why it's perfect for the spring and summer season...peace..be safe stay safe..be blessed....Will loo,ing for forward to your stylish videos on Sundays
Amazing thanks!! Ive gone for wing-tip and black silk tie for NYE 2021-2022. I hope you have a great 2022
OMG, thank you! I have been trying to figure out how to do this and going through SO MANY tutorials on TH-cam--none of them made sense. This is such an excellent and user-friendly explanation of how to tie a bow tie!
The bow tie from number two would be the perfect inspiration piece for an Up themed Dapper Disney bound. Makes me think of the balloons! With a light blue pinstriped shirt, yellow vest, grey jacket and pastel madras slacks and you could be Carl and Ellie’s house
I liked all the outfits. In order though 2,3,1. This was very helpful!!! Thanks!
I've always worn regular neck ties. However, now I am trying to learn how to tie a bowtie. I've seen a few videos. Your video is the easiest one to understand and follow. Using two different colored sides is... brilliant!!!!! Thank you!!!
Fantastic, love it ! I have seen a few video clips and this one is the most convenient one. I also love fun of explaining this. Great "Thank you" !!!
This was about the 8th video I've watched on how to tie a bow tie. And this is where I stop watching videos, because now I can tie one. Thank you so much for these instructions. They were clear, easy to follow, and they explained a lot that the other videos just don't.
so, I'm curious. PBJ - white bread? I'm kind of sourdough, myself, but I'm weird.
Number two was my favorite. Love the dark jacket with light colored vest, that's hot!
My fiancé has been looking for a good bow tie video! Also, I’m a little bit sad that I can’t be friends with Dandy IRL. Because I don’t live in NYC and what are the odds? Maybe someday.
Thank you, Dandy. You are the best. I make my own bow ties so naturally I like No1 outfit with the modified bow tie. You have increased my design and skill set tremendously; I will now add more self-tie bow ties to my wardrobe.
Great video. I’ve been looking for how to tie a bow tie, and this is the best. I like all 3 outfits, but I’ll pick #1. Thanks. Just subscribed!
Thank you very much Dandy Wellington, I just addored the modified bow tie with dettachable collar!!
THANK YOU! That "two thumb, pinch the ends" part did the trick.
Love it, love it, love it, excellent tutorial. I am left-handed so I have to do everything the opposite, but your tutorial makes it very easy to follow. Burgundy is my favorite color.
All look good but if I have to choose = 3. Thanks very much for your help. Wearing mine now but off on holiday soon hence the refresh.
This is the most charming and helpful how-to on all of TH-cam. Thank you so much, Sir!
it was pretty easy. Need to know how for an upcoming Omega Psi Phi Fraternity event. I did it without having a mirror until i tightened it up.
Thank god for you I tried 4 films before you and this was the only that worked.
Great choice of music too 👌
Man, now I want to play with bowties! And I don't have any appropriately collared shirts! 🥺
I wore a bow tie to the last two weddings I attended. The last one being my son's. I was the only man at both weddings to wear a bow tie. I received so many compliments from women, with all of them saying bow ties look so much classier. The only drawback with a bow tie; is that you can't loosen the knot and slack the tie. Once it's tied; it stays like that.
mr wellington well what to say ? wow !! forget rap just watch you go- thank you , sincerley rob williams
The absolutely easiest tutorial I’ve found! Thank you!
Enjoy the video but that loop part is not clear. I tied a bow tie a couple of times but forgot and this doesn’t seem the way I learned nor could I follow.
#3 😍
Thank you so much for this. You're the only one who really explained it clearly
Thank you .. Where can I find a Great looking bow tie ? Thanks
Outfit one looks like you're going to a summer wedding, but my favorite is number three
using the two tone tie in the first video made it easy to follow along. thank you.
Speaking of the importance of the collar reminds me of our towns former mayor he always used to wear a red and white polka dotted bow tie but his collar was always the wrong shape it always was a cut away collar and i inew even as a female that that does not look good it kinda gave him along with his non existing hair styling the look of a mad scientist that just rolled out of bed
My favourite outfit is yes.
Also, amazing class about collars on top of how to tie a bowtie.
I have forever been trying to figure out how to tie a bow tie, your instruction makes so much sense, thank you!!
I've just discovered your videos and they are so amazing!
Love the tutorial, and will employ your lessons as soon as possible! I’ve been afraid of the bow ties in my drawer, and have avoided them for years.
Okay, I do not own a bow tie but now I want some and look like a handsome lady with them. Thank you for showing this :D
I mean, all of the outfits are awesome. But the first one is definitely my fav. 10/10 to all of them
Male identifying dress? What? You were right with Menswear.
The flowered bow tie is life. Outfit 3 is my favorite aesthetic
Tie- Space should be the new dandy social network.
I just learned the easy way to tie a bow tie. I also know that this is the best video on TH-cam to learn how to tie bow tie. Many thanks.
Thanks for this video! I finally managed it! 😃
Finally! You should be a professor if you aren't already.
Ok I guess I have to subscribe. These videos are just so joyful!
