parts of the country. California Is the loudest
state of all - Very Bolds are the rage there.
One oddity of the trade is that in New York
blue ties outsell red ones tvo-to-one, whereas
in Chicago reds are two-to-one over blues.
The present trend toward loud ties might
suggest that men are becoming vainer, but
look into the past will convince anyone that
they are still ultraconservative compared to
their ancestors. The necktie Is about 800
years old. 1t was introduced into France
by a regiment of Croat soldiers (the word
cravat is a corruption Of Croat). They
wore ribbons of muslin about their necks as
part of their uniforms. The French so admired
the gadgets that even Louis XIV took up the
style. At one time, cravats became 50 large
that great puffs of silk billowed up entirely
over the wearer's mouth and nose
After this high point, the cravat gradually
sflrank to more normal proportions. But as
late as a century ago, mans necktie was
a very large and splendid part of his dress.
A book published in Philadelphia in 1928,
called The Art of Tying the Cravat,"
listed more than 80 modes of knotting
necktie.
The 1l;nap Nocktie
There's no denying that men still think
very seriously about ties In the u S. Patent
Office hundreds of inventions are registered
for improving the necktie. There is tie
which buttons on to the shirt front; tie
that is chemically treated to keep your neck
warm in winter; tie that has rubber blad
der inside so that you can blow it up at night
and stretch out the wrinkles.
