Step-by-Step Guide to Tying the Onassis Knot
- Start with the Wide End on Your Right: Position the tie so the wide end is on your right and the narrow end is on your left. Ensure the wide end hangs lower than the narrow end.
- Cross the Wide End Over the Narrow End: Take the wide end and cross it over the narrow end in the front.
- Wrap Around from Behind: Bring the wide end behind the narrow end, wrapping it around to the right.
- Cross to the Left: Take the wide end across the narrow end to the left.
- Up Through the Neck Loop: Pass the wide end up through the neck loop from underneath.
- Create the Band: Bring the wide end down through the loop created in Step 5. Gently pull it through to form a neat band.
- Drape the Wide End: Take the wide end behind the knot and drape it over the front, allowing it to hang freely.
- Final Adjustments: Pull down gently on the wide end and adjust the knot to ensure it sits comfortably at the collar.
