If you’ve had enough of your standard button-down shirts, there’s a new trend in town – and it’s festive for this time of year.
We’ve noticed a handful of celebrities sporting tie-neck outfits over the past few months. The Victorian style features two strands of fabric that tie at the front of your neck. While the trend may seem a bit old school, stars are styling the classic look in a fresh and sophisticated way.
On a recent trip to Boston, Kate Middleton opted for a feminine soft pink blouse with a loose bow at the neck. True to her style, the Princess of Wales kept it chic by wearing it under a tailored burgundy blazer with matching trousers. In August, Meghan Markle wore a striped tie-neck blouse with cropped khaki pants for the debut of her podcast Archetypes. For a more casual vibe, the Duchess of Sussex left hers undone, proving that it is indeed a stylish yet cool wardrobe staple.
