Hi Nigel, I am getting married soon and also bought myself a black self-tie silk batwing bow tie. Looking forward to tie it for the first time and wear it proudly at this special occasion! Thanks for this article. Have a great day!

Thank you for the photos of the legendary musical genius John Coltrane. What type of bow tie is he wearing in those two photos. Judging from photos and album covers from the early- to mid-1960s, it was quite popular among jazz musicians at the time and was worn with suits as well as black tie dress.
