ABSTRACT:
Herein is described an invention comprising an adjustable bow tie of three basic parts: a bow strip, a bow loop and a neck band. The bow strip may be pre-tied or otherwise, and is held in a bow shape by a tubular bow loop, located in the center of the tied bow strip. The neck band is separable from the bow tie portion and has an unrestricted path through the bow loop. The neck band is adjustable to the size of the wearer's neck and employs hook and pile fabric fasteners adjacent to both ends of the band and located longitudinally along opposite sides of the band. The combination of the fastening means with the unrestricted movement of the neck band allows the wearer to adjust the band and conceal such adjustment and the fastening means from view.
