Announcement WELCOME TO 2021!

Wear those masks! Stay physically distanced! Let's get back to our activities as soon as we can!

I AM making masks! I make the "duck- bill" style - with a lining and a pocket for a filter of your choosing. They also have a bendable soft metal piece over the nose. These are NOT medical grade masks and I do not advertise them as such. BUT - if you want a fashionable and practical accessory - now listed in their own category with a few samples.

I make HANDMADE, BESPOKE, High Quality BOW TIES of the finest natural fabrics for the well-dressed. Made with skill, care, and love. Available as SELF TIE or 1960s style CLIP ON. Special Orders for WEDDINGS, and KID'S TIES too!

If you need to look SPECTACULAR for your Zoom meeting - or a virtual wedding - let me know - I can help!

Favorite animal? Hobby? Special colors? Team logo?
A pink shark or a purple boat? (Thinking of the brain scan bow tie for a neurosurgeon I made or the pugs wearing flowers for a special wedding) PLEASE ASK ME! I can probably source something wonderful - and I also have shelves of many fabrics that are not within my shop-your special fabric may be within my stash.

BRIDGETOWN BOW TIES
Hand Crafted Bow Ties in Limited Editions, Made from the Finest Materials

FREESTYLE: You must HAND TIE most of our bow ties. Don't know how?

This a fantastic tie with a silly but elegant pattern! I'm giving it as a gift, to someone who loves both bowties AND sloths, so I'm sure this will be very much appreciated! The packaging is lovely and the shipping was fast! All-in-all a perfect Etsy transaction. Thank you!

Absolutely gorgeous!! Somehow Jane made it the perfect size for me. If you, like me, are AFAB and have a smaller neck, get a Bridgetown bow tie because is will look sleek on you and fit right (not oversized, it's nice to not look like you're wearing a clown bow tie). The fabric is soft and silky and elegant. 11/10.

They are cute and comfortable. Practical also: the nose band helps keep my eyeglasses from fogging up, and I prefer having two ties instead of hooking my mask on my ears.

THE BOW TIE STORY

BRIDGETOWN BOW TIES.
Bespoke Ties in Extremely Limited Editions, Made from the Finest Materials
Hand Crafted and Made in Portland, Oregon, USA
Making Us Better Looking, One Bow Tie at a Time...

In the beginning, they wore long neckties.
They spilled soup on them.
They got them caught in car doors and attache cases.
We saw this and thought-- there has to be a better way.
That's how Bridgetown Bow Ties was born.
We defy you to spill your martini on a bow tie.
Or get it caught in a subway door.

The world is now safer.

And just a little bit more fashionable.
