Men less likely to wear ties with a jacket
These past few years has seen the increasing trend of men not wearing a tie with a jacket, even in the most formal of settings, which until recently was extremely rare but is now commonplace. I'm curious to know people's thoughts on this.

Re: Men less likely to wear ties with a jacket
I wear a tie only when I absolutely have to. Weddings, funerals, the odd other occasion.
Shirts have not required a tie at the neck for a century or more. As it is a decorative object, I choose whether I wish to decorate myself in that way or not. That’s it, really.

Re: Men less likely to wear ties with a jacket
I started to ditch the tie about 5 years ago. It gets in the way and I think it looks nicer to just have a good quality shirt on.

Re: Men less likely to wear ties with a jacket
I ditched ties, the bowler hat, the cape and plus fours many years ago. Far too anachronistic.

Re: Men less likely to wear ties with a jacket
No one likes or enjoys ties. You have to wear them under certain circumstances.

Re: Men less likely to wear ties with a jacket
I don’t wear ties because the Iranians don’t.

Re: Men less likely to wear ties with a jacket
I last wore a tie to get my current job - Jun 1999. I wore a cravat for my wedding and simply don't wear ties at all now. I don't think I have a shirt that I can do up the top button.
