The Pretty Wild Story of OTAA
It all started with a goal and a monkey on a job interview with the Brothers of OTAA.
After exploring far and wide for the perfect tie, OTAA realised the challenge of finding an awesome and eco-responsible tie. So, they came up with the crazy idea to create the world’s greatest clothing company (ever).
Blowes Clothing collaborated with the innovative brand, so you’ll see OTAA ties in thieirrange that come in various top-tier and eye-catching designs. From neckties to bow ties, there are men’s ties for that “Great Gatsby” gentleman look.
Styling Ties for Men
Neckties have become one of the accessories that are a symbol of elegance and class, thanks to the French, who made them fashion staples today. Croatians first wore them as part of their uniform in the 17th century, during the 30 Years War.
In modern times, it’s incorporated and reinvented in today’s fashion-forward pieces so they suit any occasion. And when it comes to styling clothes, it is a seamless process of picking the right accessories to effortlessly carry an outfit
Ready to dress to the nines with OTAA ties? Here are some tips on how to wear this versatile men’s fashion piece.
Know the appropriate tie colour and pattern.
Here is the ultimate golden rule for men’s ties: Reserve the black tie for formal events.
Do not be afraid to play with colours and patterns to give your attire a statement piece. If you’re wearing a suit and tie in subtle tones, you can let your tie be the centre of attention, as any colour choice would usually put you in the right direction. However, if you want to go rogue and choose bolder and brighter dress shirts, balance it out with a more subtle OTAA tie.
You can never go wrong with the right fabric
The fabric you choose will dictate the kind of style you are going for. The smoother and simpler the material is, the dressier it looks.
The safest choice is silk which can be worn year-round. Silk is the way to go, especially for formal events. Wool ties for men are most appropriate for business settings during the cooler months. Cashmere ties are the middle ground, as they can be worn at the office and on date nights during autumn/fall and winter. For knitted, linen and cotton men’s ties, it’s best to follow where they end in the spectrum – casual.
Add some accent with a proper pocket square.
This is not a necessary step, but adding a little bit of pizazz never hurts anybody. Adding a pocket square gives a chic extra layer to your look, moving away from the usual suit and tie combos.
When wearing an OTAA tie, it should only complement your pocket square but never match it. Find similar colours between the two and work with that. When all else fails, go with a white cotton pocket square.
Once you’ve mastered the art of styling your suit and tie ensemble by learning the basics, style icons such as Al Pacino, Joe Pesci and Robert de Niro are easy to follow.
