What is a "tie"?

A tie is a narrow length of cloth that is worn around the neck and tied in a knot at the front. Ties are typically made of silk, polyester, or other materials, and come in a variety of colors, patterns, and styles. They are commonly worn as a part of formal attire or as a fashion accessory and are often seen in professional settings such as business meetings or interviews. Ties can be worn with a dress shirt and suit, or with a more casual outfit to add a touch of sophistication. Different tie knots, such as the Windsor knot or the Four-in-Hand knot, can create varying looks and styles.
