Fashion Today: 10 Simple ways to knot a tie - Part 2
STEP 6. THE DIAGONAL KNOT
This one is easy to make after you have already learned how to make all
the previous knots. The Diagonal knot consists of two layers, it is
asymmetric and hard to take off, and so you will need to untie it. But
it looks very elegantly on a deep color tie.
This knot is named after Lord Calvin, the temperature school inventor.
However, it is not directly related to Lord Calvin, but it as hard to
tie as to understand this scientist’s theories. Nevertheless, it looks
fabulous and elegant on thin cotton or wool ties and is better to wear
at some special events.
This is one of the widest knots, which was invented by the Swiss artist
Baltasar Klossowski in the last century. The artist wore it in an
unusual manner, making the wide end short and the narrow one long.
Balthus knot is ideal for men who are not too tall, since it conceals
the tie length and levels the costume proportions. It looks lovely on
light silk ties.
Aristotle Onassis invented this knot, a Greek businessman, and Jackie
Kennedy’s second husband. He changed the classic “four-in-hand knot”,
freely pulling the wide end of the tie instead of fixing it. This knot
looks very eccentric and fits perfectly the women fashion also. Such a
knot fits ties with bright and interesting prints.
