To Make A Big Tie Knot You Need A Spread Collar
I just love reading Guerreisms blog - he's such a great street photographer and he really knows menswear. If you don't know the blog, it's here www.guerreisms.com .
Okay, so a lot of guys ask me how to make a big knot like the one above. Well, to be fair, I just use the diagrams on Le Noeud Papillon's blog in Sydney although I don't think all of the diagrams are correct.
The most important thing about a big knot is the precursor of needing a wide cutaway collar. If you don't have the collar right then it will look ridiculous when you try to slide a huge knot between it. It's kind of like a woman having oversize boltons when she's got a narrow chest. So to give yourself some room for your fancy knot, try getting yourself a wide spread collar or what we call a 'super cutaway' .
