We know, we know—we’ve been ringing the bell about ties being back for years now. We first noticed the necktie resurgence right here at the GQ office (a place, as my colleague Samuel Hine wrote a while back, that was “once arguably the global epicenter of casual tie-wearing”), and have since seen it flourish in Hollywood, on the runway, and even among the new political elite.
