    Never worn one, never will. I'll stick to a bow tie.

    Ruche ties scream hire shop wedding outfits. Having the misfortune to see one in a photograph is the closest I'd ever want to get to one.

    Except for black-tie and white-tie events, hardly any men will wear a tie anymore, not even lawyers, bankers, and top Level management - at least not i Scandinavia.

    I wear a tie most days except when I am on the farm where my sons have very sensibly introduced a "no tie" rule, amongst their "Health and Safety" regulations.

    As a lawyer, in Northern Europe, working for a Swedish company - my usual 'business' attire is T-shirt and Jeans - I don't think I have regularly worn a tie since about 2004 when I left a somewhat stuffy law firm in Nottingham - but the firm I was at before them adopted dress down (unless meeting clients) as early as 2000...

    The US is largely the same. Even when high-visibility types still wear a suit, they usually ditch the tie.

    its definitely not something I'll ever have to worry about.
