Bow Tie: WATCH BEFORE YOU WEAR!

[@DandyWellington]

Do you wear a bow tie?

[@furmidable5498]

No, but it's high time to change that !

[@mjennyt]

I haven't found any to suit me, but my 9 year old son loves them!

[@riley.p.p]

I, sadly, don't know how to tie one, so I use pre-tied ones

[@TRocksGarage777]

Of coarse I do. It was a pleasure meeting you at the Battle of the Big Bands last year on the Intrepid.

[@thoughts2deep2fathom83]

Yes, I have over 100 in my arsenal (yes, style and fashion is a WAR against the slovenly of our society), but only in the last couple of years have I metriculated to where I wear them with aplomb. I stumbled onto your Instagram and brother, as a fellow man of the (fashion) cloth, I tip my many fedoras to you.

[@bernadettebanner]

That sass tho ✨👌

[@DandyWellington]

Sometimes we sass on a Sunday 🤷🏾‍♂️😁

[@persiswynter6357]

Newt Scamander, Hufflepuff extraordinaire.

[@DandyWellington]

Love it!!

[@knitkate]

I loved that you included style inspiration male and female identified folks! I need to learn to tie a bow tie.

[@DandyWellington]

Thanks for watching!! Yes the bow tie knows no gender or identification only style! So many thing is this way. It’s all about how you wear it and express yourself.

[@KlausKokholmPetersen]

If you van tie your shoelaces, you can tie a bowtie. And always use a selftied, they're so much better looking than pretied.

[@VintageEgyptologist]

Thank you for that very important public service announcement!

[@DandyWellington]

Hahah 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@alethearia]

Growing up my little brother wore a bow tie to church every Sunday. It was clip-on, but he was small. It's still part of his quintessential style.

[@TRocksGarage777]

I absolutely love this video. We bow tie wearers sometimes get a bad rap. You are correct, it's their problem. I so love your style.

[@DandyWellington]

Many thanks!1 Keep wearing that bowtie!

[@capturedsoulsphotos]

Dandy I adore you sir, but you were dangerously close to a talking to until you mentioned The Doctor and his ability to rock a bowtie. Ace content, I eagerly await that menswear for women class sir.

[@DandyWellington]

Haha I’m glad I avoided a talking to. I’m working on that class! Will announce soon

[@Ignauhak]

Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong 1901-1971, hands-down. He could rock a bow tie with the best of 'em while scatting an entire album's worth of rhythm onstage in one concert. Absolute class. ^_^

[@buny_x]

As The Doctor once said "Bow ties are cool!"

[@DandyWellington]

Truth!

[@minjenra]

I had a good friend show me how to tie a bow tie many years ago. He has since passed on, I will always think of him anytime I see or wear a bow tie. Send out all the love.

[@FabiWe91]

I'm so glad that you appeared in Rachel Maksy's last video. Immediately subscribed. What you say in the introduction video on your website about masculinity and vintages style - not vintage values absolutely speaks to me from the heart.

[@geminigrrl66]

You named Gladys Bentley!!!! You are THE BEST!!! You know your Blues history and I'm here for all of it!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@belabotum876]

You mentioned my cousin Sir! Abe was the snappy dresser and it carried down to my dad and I! I loved his hat and always wondered what it was called? Good day sir.

[@tarabound]

As an Archaeologist, I got to say, I LOVE YOU. (and we all still want to look like Indiana Jones)

[@stephaniealdaz4243]

THIS IS SO COOL! The Vintage KZbin community is just flourishing rn.

[@DandyWellington]

It's such wonderful community!! See you in the next video :)

[@amywyllie3965]

I wish I knew how. I love them.

[@DandyWellington]

This might help kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZavl5eHoNyAbZI

[@BrianSheridan]

What a great video though I would have loved to have seen more of your bowties. And I'm not sure how trustworthy Donald Duck is - while rocking the bowtie, he isn't wearing PANTS!. :) Keep up the great videos.

[@DandyWellington]

Hahaha so reasonable. No Pants =possible problem 🤣

[@bugeyedmonster2]

I do wonder sometimes, why animators usually have anthropomorphic animals wearing shirts, but no pants..... Freudian slip?

[@riverofstars3287]

This is a delight to watch! That comedic timing. And YES thank you! Bow ties are so much more #aesthetic than regular ties

[@kenneth7826]

Dandy I wear a bow tie every Friday at work..I am a teacher and I wear a shirt tie and jacket everyday..I want to set the right example for my students..plus I love to break down those stereotypes of guys who look like me and you..SMILE...keep it up...love it..my favorite?..your list was impressive all stylish people..add one more Gary Cooper

[@donspiro]

My personal style icon? Paul F. Tompkins. Always dapper.

[@rosecallahan]

Love this DW! Thanks for including me 🥰 Never saw Lady Di in a tux...woah! Peewee Herman was the reason I got my first bow tie in middle school! There were a lot of those little 50s/60s clip on bow ties around in the thrift shops then. Great work!

[@DandyWellington]

Peewee is a gateway for many young bow tie wearers for sure! I wanted to included more ladies because there is so much style there. I most cases the clip on rule doesn’t apply for ladies because of how elevated the style is.

[@Cosmonauticus0982]

Bill Nye, engineers gotta represent!

[@IDoDeclareify]

Hahaha woah did not expect to be next to Josephine Baker!

[@DandyWellington]

You deserve it stylish battle witch!

[@FiresideAngel]

Love your videos! Would love it if you can breakdown all the steps of putting one of your looks together -all the detail. Im a vintage 1940s style gal but know nothing about the ins and outs of menswear so i find it fascinating :) Thanks for bringing joy!

[@DandyWellington]

Thanks for this idea! I'll have to ruminate.

[@abbydrawshistory]

Nobody's mentioned Mary Poppins and I'm a little sad.

[@tomcarradine]

You're my favourite bow tie wearer!

[@DandyWellington]

😱 Tom you charmer you! 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@Kyle-vb3fz]

I started wearing them about 4 years ago, when I turned 30. I wear about once to twice a week now. Not a four in hand guy, or a single Windsor guy, but prefer Full Windsor & Bow ties. I love them. Not big knots on ties though.

[@neldahargo29]

Lookin' good, Dandy. You are right about Indiana Jones. Artifact collection is the opposite of archaeology.

[@BEAMChannel]

Just found you today by way of Cathy Hay, love your channel!

[@winterdavis4919]

I always love when my husband wears a bow tie! Because “bow ties are cool!”

[@tnmtemerity]

Vladimir Horowitz was the reason I started wearing bow ties when I was a teenager. Now I just like them. I only wear them once or twice a week, but find they are actually convenient. Anyone who’s wore a long tie knows how they can get in the way. Also, if you’re not concerned with fitting in, wearing a bowtie is a good way to stand out from the crowd. There was a time. When I wore a bowtie to work every single day because I wanted people to know who I was. That way if someone said you look familiar, I could say yeah I’m a guy who wears the bowties and rides motorcycle. That’s a combination they couldn’t forget.

[@Ellaodi]

Cis woman, i wear bowties and they are SO sharp. Typically they are in similar fabrics to my recent dresses so if im feelin the bowtie instead of the dress, i get the same level of style

[@meltyblend]

I notice notable bow tie wearer Winston Churchill was not included, but more importantly, the best bow tie wearer of them all, I am here to represent for Groucho Marx

[@jamescoleman6570]

Keep preaching the bow tie gospel!

[@piglingbland3903]

Janelle Monáe, love her hat game top. 💓 nothing against PeeWee Herman, but he is one of the less suave exuding wearers of the bow tie. 🤣😅

[@DandyWellington]

Truth but an icon non the less.

[@patricksun7971]

I love wearing bow ties. It gives me that southern flair of sophistication. I have been doing zoom since the pandemic, Wearing a bow tie is great for only showing my upper body in public appearance. I have been wearing ties most of my life since junior high, it is less likely that I would stain my bow tie when I eat 👍

[@supersonique001]

Very very interesting. I have never had a problem with black tie attire but otherwise cannot wear a bow tie in ordinary dress!? Other wearers do not bother me at all but for me it becomes negatively visceral and simply does not suit me, strange.

[@Nallenoodles]

I will never forget my younger brother wearing a bow tie for an event, he was about 12/13, then the older cousin, thinking he’s being cool or something straight up told him “I feel the urge to punch you in the face seeing with that bow tie” I haven’t seen him wear one since 😔 I should play this around him, maybe he’ll catch your words of wisdom

[@simplyme1438]

My dad wears bow ties when he wants to look dapper.

[@jtdun44]

This is terrific!

[@DavidCollinsRivera]

And when can we expect a tutorial on tying a bow tie the official DW way? As a style icon yourself, you have some responsibility to lead the charge, do you not?

[@darthbee18]

"...self tied bow ties, not the clip-on bow ties..." 🔥🔥🔥 Yup, bowties are *indeed* cool! 😏😎😎

[@DamesalaMode]

I love seeing people wearing bowties!

[@DandyWellington]

So much style there!

[@TheVelvetLoungeLife]

Ummmm why yesssss of course. ☺️💜

[@pamelatarajcak5634]

Can't beat Bogart in Casablanca or Sabrina!

[@bugeyedmonster2]

Definitely agreeing on Indiana Jones not being a role model for archeologists. (Like that cave with the golden idol- wouldn't that have been considered a technological marvel? How would the ancients have done that?) IMHO, it's very much a "colonizer" view of archeology. Lucas was inspired by the 1930s serials he used to watch as a boy. Plus some of the English archeologists. They were more of the type to go to Egypt or Ethiopia, and take all the artifacts they could box up and ship back, and then display them in the museums in the UK.

[@greta2500]

Way to call out uncultured peasants, like myself, on those clip-on bowties, hahaha

[@coj9183]

👍

[@honrablmsj]

I love bowties!

[@evieburke8075]

love the inclusive language!!!

[@jaredolague182]

Great video, but a lot of the characters in boardwalk empire were based on real people

[@joseliriano5887]

Sir Winston Churchill.

[@brotherneil65]

Fred Astaire

[@nicnaknoc]

in the words of the Doctor " bowties are cool"

[@Saint_Medusa]

" Does he look untrustworthy to you ?" I know kingdom hearts players....they might want to have a discussion with you.

[@nicklh186]

If someone tells you to never wear a bowtie, tell them to mind their business 🙈

[@Shimarenda]

Just when I thought Audrey Hepburn couldn't be more attractive....
