    I've never seen a necktie like that. Tell this unenlightened colonist more about it.

    Ron, Trefor's tie is lovely. It is known as a Ruche which I think is pronounced "roosh". They are very popular in the UK for formal events, weddings etc, in place of a black bow tie. Trefor may know more about them.

    Is that what's called a cravat? I'm thinking that's the one you'd wear (in pale gray) with your morning dress for a formal wedding early in the day. http://www.thecravatcompany.co.uk/howtotie.htm
