At Baks Menswear in Bournemouth, we stock men's bow ties in classic and patterned styles, for black tie events and weddings. Most styles are self-tie or pre-tied with an adjustable neckband.

A bow tie reads more formal than a standard tie, which is why it's the standard choice for black tie rather than a personal preference thing.
