The necktie turns feminine

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 14 Februari 2013 | 18.47

Women are borrowing from the boys in a way that blurs the gender gap, and their latest weapon is a menswear staple — the necktie.
Origins: Diane Keaton's iconic vest and tie in Annie Hall, the 1977 classic film directed by Woody Allen, and Hollywood actress Marlene Dietrich's androgynous suits and ties.
Comeback in: Fall winter 2012 collections by Miu Miu and Ralph Lauren

Evolved into: A crisp buttondown and tie combo paired with a feminine, ankle-length skirt, and a tailored short suit with bare legs and strappy peep-toe sandals
Spotted on: International style icons like Freida Pinto and Victoria Beckham, Indian actresses Sonam Kapoor and Kangana Ranaut
What we love: A sweater with an embellished sequin tie, spotted on Jessica Alba, is a quirky alternative to the basic shirt-and-tie combo. When a woman wears a tie, it never fails to catch the eye

How to sport it: A sparkly short tie glams up a cute one-piece. Wear a skinny tie with a fitted shirt/blouse or on a waistcoat. Diagonal stripe designs are simple yet classy and elegant. Accessories — like dangling earrings, mirrored sunglasses, and stacks of bracelets — jazz up a masculine pantsuit. Pinto wore a sensuous Chanel white satin gown with a necktie at the MET Ball. The style grabbed the attention of critics, bloggers and fashionistas, who loved her style sense and also her spirit to carry off a risque gown.
What not to do: Avoid looking like you're trying to dress like a man. Avoid buttoned collars. A check shirt and check tie combo is a big no. Don't let the back tip of the tie show. If you stain your tie, buy a new one. Never ever send a tie to the laundry. Loose ties around the neck can look hip but if you want class, tie it tight Midnight blue is the new black .
It's a colour that sits ambiguously somewhere between black and blue. That's the shade of blue men should be wearing this winter. Designers have christened dark blue the new black for men. So, this winter do away with black, and develop a panache for deep blues.
Origins: The colour first appeared in fashion-forward evening wear in the 1920s, then exploded in popularity in the 1930s, particularly for summer semi-formal wear

Comeback in: 2012 winter collections on statement overcoats and jackets by Fendi, Acne, Diesel Black Gold, Agnes B and Dries Van Noten
Evolved into: Designers' lookbooks are embracing this colour by making it work as a statement piece for any outfit, whether it's jeans, suits or chinos
Spotted on: Bollywood actors Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar and Twilight star Robert Pattinson

What we love: Midnight blue has the advantage of looking attractive in the daylight when a man is on his way to an evening function, whereas black looks drab in such light. The colour imparts individual panache without compromising the understated refinement essential for formal wear
How to sport it: Look for outerwear in a shade of blue so dark that you need to question whether it's blue or black. Don't be afraid to take the easy route with an overcoat that is predominantly midnight blue save for a black trim.
What not to do: Don't pair blue with fire-engine red. If you're wearing a midnight blue blazer with jeans, avoid getting one that looks like a suit jacket.
