Why don't we see more white ties being worn by men? I feel they can easily be styled to be casual, but seems like it's rarely/never done. (lemmy.world)

Idk, white dress shirts are commonplace and much more likely to get dirty. I don't think it's particularly hard to manufacture white ties. They are sometimes worn at weddings and white bow ties are a staple of formal wear.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_tie is a code, not choice.

I know, I was pointing out that white bow ties are regularly made for formal wear, so manufacturing challenges can't be the reason why white neckties aren't popular.
