What To Know About Solid Color Ties

By Krystal Branch


A tie, also known as a necktie, refers to a piece of long cloth that is worn around the shoulders or neck. Typically this is worn for decorative purposes. Usually it is situated to rest under a shirt collar and knotted up at the neck. Variations of this accessory include clip-on, bow, ascot, zipper or bolo ties, or cravats. Solid color ties are one of the many styles that are available.

Typically these are pieces worn by males. Still, nowadays it is common to see females sport ties as well. The pieces are often sold at retail stores, particularly those that carry clothing, shoes and other such accessories. They will vary in price, depending on factors such as brand, style, material and seller.

As is true of most fashion pieces, these are available in many styles. Some may feature a pattern or design, others may only consist of one color and no pattern. Some people might prefer the solid types as they are easier to pair with shirts and incorporate into many different outfits. Still, the choice of which tie to wear is often based on personal style and preference of the wearer. There is usually no right or wrong, however there may be some rules when these are worn as part of a uniform.

Ties can be incorporated into casual or formal outfits. The material or style of each piece may help an individual choose what occasion or event it is most appropriate for. Certain jobs or positions may require that this be worn as part of a uniform. In such cases, solid versions are most common.

This neckwear has a long history. Some version of these pieces has been around since the 1600s. The style, material and use of this neckwear has changed in a lot of ways since that period of time. Still, it is largely still used as a fashion statement.

These pieces might also be regarded as a visual symbol. That is, many people associate tie wearers with individuals who are important or hold a high status. This is not always the case, but there is a connotation that widely exists. This is why men and women often wear these as part of formal wear and for important occasions. Still, there are many options available for those interested in wearing these on a day-to-day basis as part of casual wear.

Different fabrics are used in production of ties. The most common materials used are silk, satin, wool, cashmere and polyester. These different fabrics may give off their own look, especially when made in one color. Wool, solid kinds may give the tie more texture and dimension, which can add to the overall look. Synthetic fabrics are known to snag and may look inexpensive and cheap after a couple wears, so these might be best avoided. However, consider the occasion and your budget.

Many are willing to make the investment on these pieces because they can be used for several years, especially those that are of a solid color and do not cater to specific trends in fashion. Solid color ties, along with all the other styles, are largely considered a timeless piece when it comes to menswear.
