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)

"Your tie should always be darker than your shirt." is the typical rule. With that in mind, most dress shirts are white, pale blue, or pastel. So there is very little use cases for a white long tie. This does change for "White tie dress" which is a totally different discussion

Interesting, haven't heard this rule before. This must be it then as nothing is lighter than white.
