I like bow ties, so it is with regret that I say that ,after experimenting with them occasionally over the years, they are much more likely to hurt your attractiveness to women that help it.(bow tie with tuxedo or white dinner jacket excepted).

Bow ties create a huge risk that you are going to come off as either a fastidious, annoying prick or weak or goofy or effeminate or boringly genteel. I might still wear one to a summer garden party but that would be about it.

To put it differently, ask yourself, what adjectives come to mind when considering your ensemble?

The adjectives you want: stunning, striking, sexy, edgy, arresting, bold, devilish, rakish, jaunty, ballsy, cocky, enigmatic, exotic, stylish. It should generate more questions than answers. Genteel doesn't cut it.

I 100% agree with this. I have built my wardrobe around the concept of looking dashing and sexy and just different enough to be mysterious.

I want women to look at me and think "Who is that guy?" And I have plenty of proof from experience that it works.
