10 Essential Ties UPDATED! | Menswear Wardrobe Essentials

I've been wanting to make an update to our 10 essential ties for quite some time now and I'm super excited to share that with you today! The original essential ties video still has some great recommendations, but as we made it almost seven years ago, my perspective has changed and my style has evolved slightly. The recommendations in this video are just as good (although, of course, I'm biased) if not a touch more sophisticated. PLUS, you're getting 10 more outfit ideas on how to wear a suit. Enjoy!

Something’s been different as of late with the videos and I’m loving it!

[derosa]

the "next level" look of these outfits is how Brian mixes patterns and solids of all the pieces, and not just the colours

[heathwoodruff]

Brian, as a 32 year old professional, I am just now coming into “my own style.” You are helping me understand what this can look like. I really appreciate you and the experience you are sharing with your audience.

Simple, straight to the point, and comprehensive for beginner like me. Not only the ties but I also take inspiration for the suits. I love your work on this video. Thanks a lot, Bryan 👍🏽

I'm putting a vote in for the knitted square finished tie, a nice 60's vibe and extremely versatile it can be casual and dressed up.
Really like the Solero suit with the green tie.

Another great video. In my opinion, it’s the best men’s style channel out there. Would love to see you do something about how best to match shirt collars with different types of neckties, lapels, and body types.

Taking away from the outfits and ties. I think a huge round of applause needs to go out you can see such a change in the production of the videos over the last month or so (not that I felt it needed improvement I might add) which given the situation the world is in astounds me! Clearly you have your groove back and i for one am thankful. Having these videos to watch in my breaks from works just makes me so excited to get back out and dressing. I seem to be making more of an effort even for the little trips to the shops to look put together. Who know when I will have chance to put a tie on again but I look forward to that.

I love this video. I’m a huge fan of ties and bow ties. I started wearing them because I feel comfortable wearing them. I’ve been into your channel lately. You’ve got great content. I wear guy clothes because they’re comfortable.

Can’t go wrong with grenadine ties! Definitely make sure get a real one. I had a “grenafaux” tie in the past and when I upgraded to a real one, the difference was astounding.

[waqarhaiderawan]

I'm a simple (but elegant) man: I see Brian's video, I click.

[edwardmason]

I wear a lot of paisley ties (most often to Church), but 100% on letting everything else be simple and let that be the focal point.

[bradg.]

I love Hermes and Ferragamo neckties. They’re whimsical yet still professional, and add character to the outfit.

[tiepilot]

Great video Brian ! Nice nod to your old school vids at 0:46 .

[gauravpster]

Fantastic collection of ties, just loved them. Superb combinations with the suits, jackets and trousers, loved the colors 👌

[tailorsoldierspy]

That's the update I was waiting for! I watched the one you made few years ego and to be honest the video didn't really convince me about wearing ties and let's face it, ties have always been the only thing I still have a hard time to wear. To me wearing a tie feels always like it's too much but Coming across in this video the Deep red with the gold medallions and the blue one changed the whole thing, it really opens new doors in terms of style and feels very casual, a nice way to express your style in a fun way. The tuxedo look awesome👌👌👌. Thanks for the video.🙏🏼

Like to see a video on style tips for working from home. Afraid to say the office attire is pretty much old hat now. All my shirts and suits have been retired for the foreseeable future.

[XxLogo]

Definitely great choices. For me, as I don't dress up often, I am working towards a 5 tie rotation for the odd occasions. Probably was going to go with something like 3 Grenadines (burgundy, navy, and olive), grey wool, and a light linen tie (looking at mint).

[lookingforashirt]

I just bought a tan linen tie and was wondering what I should pair it with. This video was perfect for me. Now I just need to buy a brown 3 piece suit to go with my tie.

“You should give @Dwight Shcrute some tips on how to wear: brown😂😂”!!

[chrisfox]

Excellent video as usual. I really love your overall style, and enjoy your channel! Keep up the great work.
