If you walked the streets of fashion month, you’d be surprised at the one trending accessory that was everywhere. It wasn’t a shoe or a bag; it was a tie. And not the “I borrowed this from my dad’s closet” kind. The ones I saw were styled exactly the way Saint Laurent and Stella McCartney (to name just two of the many names that have endorsed this trend) sent them down the runway: razor-sharp, intentionally minimal, and paired with silhouettes slick enough to qualify as personality traits. I kept telling myself it was probably nothing—until I realized it was everywhere I looked.
The tie is shaping up to be the next micro-accessory that suddenly becomes a macro-moment. It makes sense: Fashion is in its tailoring era again, and a tie instantly makes any outfit feel more directional. The difference now is all in the styling—undone, knotted low, paired with sheer blouses, slip dresses, or perfectly tailored outerwear. If the runways were any indication, we’re all going to be wearing ties like this by 2026.
