Name: Tiffany Rogers
knot by TIFFA is a collection of men’s bow ties inspired by the varieties of music that make up the soundtrack of my life. We take a fresh position on prints and color, varying from the average bow tie.
In high school, I started designing figure skating dresses, and from there took a beginners fashion class. Designing skating dresses required the interpretation of music to clothing, and that principal has stayed with me as I continue to design.
knot by TIFFA was conceived in January of 2011.
Tracy Reese has become a great influence in my life. She hired me right out of undergrad and taught me the ins-and-outs of apparel development and production. She is an incredible person and has taught me that one can have a successful fashion career, and still remain humble and gracious.
Colorful. Personal. Charismatic. Smart. Functional.
Describe the man who wears your line?
The man that wears knot by TIFFA is looking for a bow tie that is going to make a statement when he enters the room. It doesn’t matter his age or affluence, his personality draws others towards him. His overall style is notable, classic, and respected by his peers.
For fall, the collection will have bolder, richer colors. Deep navy, hunter green, and rich maroons are the key players in the fall color palette, with a demand for camouflage, striking paisleys, and unique florals as well.
What is the perfect outfit to wear a bow tie with?
The great thing about the current trend of bow ties is that they can be worn in casual to formal settings. Right now, guys are wearing the bow tie in an every day look without too much effort, paired with shorts, and a nice button down short sleeved shirt. Color play and fit are also important, because guys who wear bow ties best are also wearing clothes that have impeccable fit.
