A Brief History of Neckties

Everything Everywhere Daily

About
One of the most ubiquitous items of clothing in formal and business attire is the necktie.

Over the last century, neckwear has both defined fashion and changed with the times. 

Learn more about neckties, how they developed, and why they exist in the first place on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
