Silk Versus Micro Fiber

Bowties have traditionally been made out of silk, but with the price of silk sky rocketing over the past couple of years manufactures are moving toward a Woven Micro Fiber.  Now you are probably wondering if there is a big difference between the two.  Do Micro Fiber Bowties have the same distinction as Silk Bowties? Can this material be worn in the boardroom, or to a formal event? The answer is absolutely yes.  The things they are doing with micro fiber are unbelievable.  We’ve had customers tell us they can’t tell the difference between micro fiber and silk. 

So instead of focusing on the types of material, focus on key pieces that you can mix and match with your shirts and suits. One smart thing to do is pick some base colors like a solid blue bowtie or the standard paisley bowtie. You can buy one quality piece at a time and over time you will see that you have collected enough to not repeat Bowties for a whole month.
