goodbye/fun facts....The bow tie set the new fashion style of neckties in the early 17th century. French soldiers brought the cravat back to France following the Thirty Years War (1618-1648). They elevated the design from Croatian soldiers that used this necktie to keep the collars of their shirts together. In 1886, tobacco magnate, Pierre Lorillard wore a bow tie with his new style of formal wear to the Tuxedo Club. The tuxedo and black bow tie, called black tie attire, became an instant hit among wealthy fashion enthusiasts. The number of Google searches for a bow tie outnumbers the searches for a necktie, 31.4 million to 12.3 million.
