S.H. Churchill & Co.100% Silk Self-Tie Bow Tie and Cummerbund Set - Formal Boxed Set- Black, Black, One size

Quality product, definitely worth the price. I will be ordering more for my groomsmen.

I can’t blame the vendor for this, but I can’t seem to tie a bow tie to save my life. I’ve watched YouTu b be videos, I’ve solicited my wife’s help, but so far no luck. I’m sure part – and perhaps all - of the problem is I have an 18.5 inch neck, and the tie only expands to 18”, so it’s snugger than it might otherwise be.As to the tie and cummerbund, they are well made and made of decent material.

On those rare occasions when it even is formal black tie this set with do the trick with your tuxedo and formal shirt. I just needed the Cummerbund as I already had the pre-tied tie but I thought I would learn the "old" way with me tying the bow tie. A guy in his seventies should be able to tie a bow tie and at least be able to show the younger generation how it's done.After many YouTube videos I because an expert at tying the bow tie. I even did it for a 20 something at the wedding I went to. Never to late to learn a new task.Both the Tie and the Cummerbund are fully adjustable for varying neck and belly sizes. These two items were the icing on the cake with my Tuxedo.

I needed a new black cummerbund for my tux, and this one looked good, so I ordered it. It didn't disappoint me--the manufacturer's description says it's 100% silk, and (although I'm no expert) it has a nice feel, so I expect that claim is correct.In the website photos, the black hardware on the cummerbund strap looked like plastic--but I was pleased to find that it was actually black-colored metal. Everything fits properly and looks classy.As the description says, the bow tie is of the "self-tie" variety. But don't worry--even if you've never tied a bow tie before, it isn't hard to learn. Just don't wait until you're dressing for your formal evening (or wedding?) to teach yourself the art. You're much better off doing it a few days in advance!

Description is entirely wrong. It is not silk like it claims to be, it is a cheap polyester material. Will be returning. Do not buy if you need silk.
