Bow Ties are a definite fashion accessory and fashion statement for the woman who strides with definition and determination of identity. There is no air of ambiguity or lack of style when it comes to defining the woman who wears a bow tie. Perhaps the ambiguity lies in the audience who often associate a bow tie as part of male apparel. However, just the simplicity of a bow around the neck somehow or the other seems very feminine and how it originated to be associated as traditionally part of masculine wear is somewhat puzzling. Perhaps the masculinity of a bow tie originates when it is worn in conjunction with a tuxedo. More recently, singer Janelle Monae has rejuvenated what she calls the uniform, the bow tie and the tuxedo.
