1 Stand in front of the mirror. Your collar should be up, your shirt buttoned all the
way to the top, and the tie around your neck. The wide end of the tie should be on
the side of your dominant hand. So if you're right-handed, the wider end should be
hanging on your right side. If you're left-handed,the wider end should be hanging on
your left side.

7 Pull the wide end of the tie under the loop around your neck.
8 Pull the wide end down through the knot at the front of the tie.
9 Tighten the knot by sliding it up the narrow end. Make sure your tie is straight
and the length is appropriate.
The four-in-hand knot is a little asymmetrical at the neck. Don't worry about
this; it is normal.
Many men with shorter necks prefer the four-in-hand, because the knot at top
is very narrow and has a slimming effect on the rest of the neck.
2 Place the tie around your neck with the wide side on the right side of your
body. Adjust the tie so that the length of the wide side is about three times the
length of the narrow side.
You may need to experiment with this step to achieve the right length for the
sides of the ties. Some people prefer having the wide side about 12 inches
below the narrow side.
3 Cross the wide side of the tie over the narrow side.
4 Bring the wide side around and under the narrow side.
5 Take the wide side over the loop around the neck. Tighten a bit.
6 Bring the wide side over the narrow side, out front, moving from right to left.

7 Slide the wide side up through the loop around your neck.
9 Tighten a bit and shape the knot into a triangle shape. You want your knot to
look a bit wider than the Four-in-Hand knot.
10 Tighten the tie around your collar by pulling on the narrow side of the tie
(which should now be hidden underneath the wide side of the tie). If your
tie has a loop underneath the wide side of the tie, you may slide the narrow side
through that loop to prevent it from "peeking" from behind the wide side of the tie.
1 Choose the traditional Windsor knot as a more formal alternative to the Half
Windsor. The Duke of Windsor started the trend for this knot back in the 1930s. It
has remained popular to this day because it projects a statement that suggests the
wearer is elegant and has confidence. It's more dignified than the Four-in-Hand knot,
but a little harder to tie. This knot should be worn with a spread collar. [2]
2 Put the tie around your neck. One end should be considerably wider than the
other. Make sure the wider end is on the right, and about a foot (30cm) lower than
the thinner side on the left.
5 Bring your tie back down. The wide end should be resting to the left of the
narrow end.
6 Pull the wide end underneath the narrow end and to the right.

7 Pull the wide end through the loop, this time on the right side. The wide end
should now be inside out.
8 Cross the wide end over the thin end again, from right to left.
10 Fold the wide end through the loop and into the knot at the front of the
tie.
11 Tighten the knot into a triangle using both hands. Slowly tighten the narrow
end to bring the tie closer to the neck.
For a more modern, fashionable and casual look, make the knot a good few
inches or centimeters down below the collar. For all formal occasions, however,
keep the knot at the traditional distance away from the collar.
1 Start with the tie inside out. The wide end of the tie should be hanging on the
right, and the narrow end on the left.
3 Bring the wide end over the loop around the neck.
4 Pull the wide end under to complete the loop around the neck. Tighten.
5 Bring the wide end over the narrow end, from left to right.
