2025 Bow Tie Style Trends: What’s In and What Still Works
Some things never go out of style — and the bow tie is one of them. But like anything in menswear, the details shift over time: colours, fabrics, proportions, and how you wear them all evolve with the trends.
At Buckle, we keep things timeless — but that doesn’t mean we don’t keep up. Here’s what’s trending in 2025 for bow ties, and how to choose a style that feels current without looking overdone.
1. Deep, Rich Colours Are Dominating
2025 is all about moodier tones. Instead of bright, loud colours, we’re seeing a shift toward richer, more layered hues.
What’s hot:
- Deep emerald
- Midnight blue
- Burnt copper
- Charcoal grey
- Burgundy and oxblood
These shades give your outfit depth and polish, without screaming for attention. They also pair easily with suits in navy, grey, beige, or black — making them ultra versatile.
Try this: Buckle’s Pre-Tied Burgundy Bow Tie is a strong, easy update for any formal look.
2. Textured Fabrics Over Shine
While satin still holds its ground for black-tie dress codes, textured fabrics are where the action is for everything else.
Big in 2025:
- Woven cotton
- Subtle linen blends
- Matte finishes
- Low-sheen textured silks
These fabrics add depth, catch the light in a softer way, and feel more grounded. Perfect for modern weddings, business events, or dressed-up dinners that don’t require full tuxedo energy.
Pro tip: Texture looks more intentional and pairs well with wool suits, tweed jackets, or open-collar shirts.
3. Patterns Are Staying Simple (For Now)
Forget novelty prints or loud florals — 2025 favours quiet confidence.
Patterns that work:
- Micro-checks
- Tonal stripes
- Fine paisleys
- Herringbone textures
The goal is to add visual interest without shouting. Keep it clean and refined — ideal for guys who want something different but still sharp.
Buckle’s range includes subtle patterns that hold up across weddings, work, and weekend events. The kind of thing people notice — but only after you’ve made your entrance.
4. Pre-Tied Convenience Is the Norm
Here’s one thing that’s not changing in 2025: convenience matters. Unless you’re a seasoned style enthusiast with the time and patience to tie a perfect bow, pre-tied bow ties are still the smarter move.
Every Buckle bow tie is pre-tied and adjustable — made to fit perfectly and sit neatly, every time.
Zero hassle. Maximum polish.
Final Word
Trends come and go, but confidence never dates. If you want to stay ahead in 2025 without looking like you’re chasing fashion, go for deeper colours, textured fabrics, and clean patterns. And stick to a pre-tied bow tie that’s made to last.
At Buckle, we’re proud to keep things sharp, simple, and stylish — the way men’s accessories should be.
