There’s no item of clothing as transformative as a tie. A tie has the power to instantly elevate a suit to “I Mean Business” status. It’s the difference between a casual and sophisticated look that conveys professionalism and seriousness.

If your work environment is on the traditional side and you wear a suit to work daily, aim for a minimum of a couple of neutrals—think gray, navy and blue—and a couple of fun options.The latter category is where you can go wild, trying out different colors and patterns, from bold solids to classic stripes and polka dots, to flora- and fauna-inspired styles. The tie is where you get to inject a dose of your personal taste, offering a hint of sophistication or your sense of humor.

The current style of tie shies away from any extremes—nothing too wide, or too skinny, landing somewhere around a tried-and-true three-inch width that you can keep and wear forever, so aim for the 2 ½” to 3 ½” range, with the rule of thumb being that a larger guy will look more proportional in a larger width, and vice versa.

With a plethora of patterns to choose from, we suggest going with your gut to find the best ties, picking the colors and patterns that you gravitate toward, without taking it too seriously. A tie, after all, has the potential to blend seamlessly with an outfit in a complementary color, or be a point-of-interest in a contrasting shade or pattern, so pick accordingly.

What’s more important than the latest tie trend is the quality. You’ll know if a tie is good quality by checking the tag or online description for the fabric content and looking for 100 percent silk—the gold standard. Luckily, there’s no set rule for how much a tie should cost—a good style can be had for as little as $20, or for exponentially more.
