When it comes to wearing a hot pink bow tie most men are skeptical about how it would look merely because of the perception that pink is a girlish color. However, there are some who actually do wear it and carry it off quite well. The whole concept of a particular color being girlish does not really matter but it is the person who is wearing it. If pink color looks good on you then you should surely try out a hot pink bow tie. It all depends on how you carry it off whether it is pink, blue or any other color.
Here are some tips on how to wear a hot pink bow tie:
Keep the costume simple:
The first and the foremost consideration for you to make if you want to wear a hot pink bow tie is to keep your overall costume as simple and masculine as you can. This means that the overall costume should not be colorful but should be plain. You can wear a hot pink bow tie on a black suit but make sure the fabric is not the shimmery one. A hot pink tie would look best on a medium black colored suit with not too much contrast.
Keep the bow medium sized:
A small bow wouldn't look good and will make others feel that you are not confident about it. A bigger one on the other wouldn't look good either in fact it would put more emphasis on the bow tie making it look a bit feminine. The best thing to do is to keep the bow in medium size so that it doesn't show too much.
Match your skin tone:
This is probably the most important factor. Who says people with dark skin complexion can't wear a hot pink bow tie? Everyone can but you need to be specific about your skin tone and the bow's color tone. For a fair guy, a hot pink bow tie of shocking pink would look good but for a darker guy a much dull pink would be better. If you wear a hot pink bow tie that is not suiting you then it might probably look weird but if you wear one which suits you then you will stand out of the crowd.
Shirts to wear under a hot pink bow tie:
Now another important consideration is the shirt you would wear under a hot pink bow tie. Of course wearing a blue or black shirt under such a tie would make you look funny. The best is to wear a pure white shirt under such a tie with a dull black suit to make it look perfect. Also, the fabric your tie matters a lot! Never go a fabric that is too shimmery such as pure silk, etc. You can opt for a fabric that is mixed with silk to make the best of the color. Not many of us would dare to wear such a tie but the one who does would surely stand out of the crowd!
