bowties
Tuxedo neck accessories
Bowties are neckties shaped like a butterfly or propeller, tied in a bow at the collar rather than hanging down the chest.
They suggest formality (black-tie events) or eccentricity (professors, clowns).
The plural also refers to bow-shaped pasta: We had bowties with pesto.
Also spelled bow ties or bow-ties.
