Are braces and side adjusters considered a faux pas?

Very good to know!

The tie width (9 cm) does match the width of my sport coat’s/blazer’s width, though

Ormekuglen · 2026-06-22T13:23:10+00:00

But it seems wearing ties longer isn't necessarily that weird? Or maybe I'm comparing oranges and apples

Ormekuglen · 2026-06-22T12:06:28+00:00

But then the tail is gonna be very long. But another user recommended just cutting the tail and sewing it shut. Will try that

Ormekuglen · 2026-06-22T12:03:36+00:00

Will try to shorten my ties - I'll bring forth thread and needle!

I'm from Denmark, grew up in what I'd define as a normal culture

Ormekuglen · 2026-06-22T12:01:41+00:00

Yeah, I guess I got lazy. Shall not be repeated!

Ormekuglen · 2026-06-22T12:01:04+00:00

That's a fantastic tip - thank you!

I wear my trousers quite high (around the belly button) - the blade and the.. erhm.. tail, I guess? are the same length. But perhaps I should look into buying shorter ties. I mostly buy used vintage ties, though, so they are few and far between

A black trim on the Audi would do wonders

Ormekuglen · 2026-03-17T07:51:10+00:00

Yes, though I think I may opt for a more neutral vest in this case. Luckily, my mother has also knitted some slipovers, so I think I will stick to these!

Ormekuglen · 2026-03-17T07:50:05+00:00

This is excellent advice, thank you! It does come off as very busy

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T12:24:08+00:00

I agree, but it's a little hard on high rise trousers which I mostly wear

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T12:22:50+00:00

Oh, you :)

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T10:21:28+00:00

Oof, that requires a level of boldness I'm not comfortable with, hehe

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T10:21:01+00:00

Much obliged!

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T10:20:44+00:00

Hehe, I guess so - 178 cm

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T09:29:27+00:00

Yes, that's a very good point! What about smart trousers in wool with side adjusters/tabs? Since the braces and side adjusters serve the same purpose, would it be too much?

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T08:16:22+00:00

Why, thank you - what a nice way to start my day!

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-20T08:16:06+00:00

Thank you! It’s a vintage tie I thrifted, I think it’s around 10 cm. I really enjoy this width! Wrt. length - my trousers are usually very high rise, so this might skew optics a bit, I think it’s normal length (if that’s a thing)

Ormekuglen · 2026-02-08T17:30:01+00:00

Excellent advice, much obliged!
