• Learn More About Suit & Tie Accessories

    Suit and tie accessories let you express your personality and style—and enhance your look. When you want to look your best for a wedding, black tie affair, or your next business meeting, accessorizing your suit can take it up a notch, polish your appearance, and transform a tailored look far beyond suit alterations. Etsy shops sell a wide range of unique handmade and vintage suit accessories to help you stand out from the crowd.

    Etsy sellers make a variety of handcrafted ties and neck accessories to add the finishing touches to any suit. Neckties and bow ties offer different looks and advantages to the wearer while making the dress shirt and suit jacket combo feel more complete. Both tie types come pre-tied, as a clip-on, or as a self-tied version that you tie up yourself. Self-tied offers the most opportunity to add some extra character and a personal touch, but the other options can save you time if you’re looking to accessorize with haste.


    Bow ties are less common, so they’ll turn more heads when worn with a suit—and make a great addition to any tuxedo. Experiment with different color palettes, patterns, and thicknesses while taking advantage of the bow tie’s different shapes, like the butterfly, batwing, and diamond point.


    Bolo ties are cords secured with a decorative clasp, offering a different look than a necktie or bow tie. They’re widely associated with fashion from the wild west—predominantly in the United States—and among some Indigenous cultures.


    Ascots, on the other hand, harken back to nearly two centuries ago in British and French society, when opulent citizens wore them as everyday ties. Alongside cravats, these ties are wider, with folds covering all or nearly all of the neck area.

    Suit accessories allow you to make your suit your own with a few small extras.


    Cufflinks and tie clips are among the simplest and most powerful additions. Cufflinks act as buttons that hold your shirt cuff closed and double as a jewelry option to show off some bling. Etsy shops sell unique cufflinks in all sorts of designs, from jewel-encrusted vintage options to custom and personalized cufflinks, to playful shapes that reflect your personality. Tie bars, tie pins, and tie clips add panache while holding your tie in place. Shirt studs take the place of buttons and add personal style to your dress shirt.


    Pocket squares are pieces of fabric that peak out of your front suit pocket. They originated as handkerchiefs but are now used to create a pop of color and flair. Because they stand out against the suit color, the pocket square is among the biggest bang-for-your-buck accessories when looking to add instant polish to your outfit. Squares can also fit inside formal vests for when you don’t need a jacket, or layer it all up to be extra dapper.


    When attending a formal event that calls for a tuxedo, consider a cummerbund. Cummerbunds are sashes that fit around your midsection to keep your tucked shirt from escaping and puffing up in front of you. They’ll keep you looking sharp during your speech and on the dance floor.
