Mens Double Layer Pre Tied Bow Tie
Description
The bow tie is one of the smallest pieces in a wedding outfit and one of the most noticed. It sits right under your face in every close up, and when a row of groomsmen wears the same color, it is what ties the whole party together. This double layer bow tie is made to look sharp in those photos and to be easy on the morning of the wedding, with no tying lessons needed.
What Is Included
- Included: 1 pre tied bow tie in the color you choose
- Not included: the jacket, shirt, pocket square and display tray shown in the photos
- Available in black, burgundy and purple. Choose your color from the options above.
Why Men Choose This Bow Tie
- Ready in seconds. The bow is pre tied and fastens with an adjustable neck strap, so every groomsman looks the same without anyone needing to learn to tie a bow on the wedding morning.
- A fuller, layered shape. Two stacked layers give the bow more depth than a flat single layer bow tie, which shows clearly in close up photos.
- Subtle texture up close. The fabric has a fine woven texture that catches light gently, so the bow tie looks interesting at arm's length without looking busy in group shots.
- Easy to buy for a group. Order the same color for every groomsman, or one color for the groomsmen and a different one for the groom.
- Checked before it ships. Every order goes through our sample room in Suzhou, where our team checks the color against your order and the finishing before it is packed.
Which Color Fits Your Wedding
- Black: the classic choice for tuxedos, black tie optional weddings and evening receptions. It works with every suit color.
- Burgundy: a warm, rich color for fall and winter weddings, and a popular match for wine, rust and deep red bridesmaid dresses.
- Purple: a deep purple with a subtle pattern, suited to plum, violet and jewel tone wedding palettes and evening events.

Styling Notes From Real Weddings
Pre tied or self tie? A self tie bow tie has a slightly looser, handmade look, but it takes practice. For a wedding party where everyone needs to look the same and be ready on time, a pre tied bow tie removes the stress, especially for men who rarely wear one.
Matching the bridesmaids. Colors vary between fabrics and screens. If you want to match bridesmaid dresses closely, compare the product photos with a dress or swatch in daylight before ordering for the whole party.
Wear it with the right collar. A bow tie needs a shirt with the top button fastened. A spread or wing collar shirt shows the bow best, and the bow should be roughly as wide as the outer edges of your eyes or the edges of your collar.
Order one extra. Many couples order a spare bow tie for the wedding party in case one gets lost or stained on the day.
Coordinate the accessories. Pair the bow tie with a pocket square in a matching or complementary color. Browse pocket squares to finish the look.

Fabric and Care
A bow tie sits close to your face and collar all day, so a little care keeps it looking crisp for the next event.
- Follow the care label. Spot clean marks gently with a damp cloth rather than soaking the bow.
- Do not wring or twist the bow, which can flatten the layers
- If the bow creases in storage, steam it lightly from a distance. Avoid pressing it flat with an iron.
- Store flat in a drawer or box to keep the shape of both layers
Who this bow tie is for: wedding parties that want every groomsman to look coordinated and ready without fuss, grooms choosing a bow tie to set themselves apart, and anyone heading to a formal event who wants a sharp, easy to wear bow tie. Browse more ties and bow ties to compare colors and styles.
Size and Fit
Choosing the right size is the most important step, especially for a wedding. A few things to know before you order:
Jacket and pants are sized separately on our suits, so you can choose a different size for each piece.
Pants on our suits ship unhemmed with a 35 inch inseam, so a local tailor can hem them to your exact length.
Try the suit on at home before you take the pants to a tailor. Items that have been altered cannot be returned.
If you are between sizes, compare your measurements with our Size Guide, or email us your height, weight and usual sizes and we will help you choose.
Not sure how to measure? Our How to Measure guide shows each measurement step by step with pictures.
Standard sizes not working for you? If your jacket and pant sizes never match, or sleeves are always too long or too short, a made to measure suit may fit you better.
