How to Maintain your Dress Shirt

Your shirt should be neatly pressed when worn. The only crease in the shirt should be down the centre of each arm beginning at the centre of each epaulette. It may be helpful to starch the collar of the shirt to prevent it from becoming limp.

How to Tie a Double Windser

Step 1 - Setup: Lift up the collar of your shirt and place the tie around your neck with the two ends hanging down in front of you.  Place the tie so that the narrow end is in your dominant hand.  The wide end should come down slightly two times lower than the narrow end.







Step 2 - The Initial Loop: With your non-dominant hand, take the wide end and cross it over the narrow end about six inches from your neck.  Proceed by taking the wide end with your dominant hand and going under and through the back of the V-shape made by the knot.  Keep a firm grip on the narrow end with your non-dominat hand as you do so.  With your dominant hand, pull the wide end through in the direction of that hand.  

Step 4 - The Wrap Around: Using your dominant hand, take the wide end and go over the front of the entire knot towards the side of your dominant hand.  Once again, pull on the wide end to tighten the knot and compact the fabric. 
 
Step 6 - Finished Product: Pull the wide end all the way through and tighten the knot.  By grasping the narrow end with your dominant hand, and the knot with your non-dominant hand, pull the knot up snuggly to your neck.  Adjust the knot for comfort and style and flip your collar down.

Step 3: Under & Through: With your dominant hand, take the wide end of the tie and go completely under the knot.  Still using the dominant hand, pull the wide end through the V-shape knot and tightly pull it towards your non-dominant hand. 


Step 5 - Through & Tuck: With your dominant hand, bring the wide end underneath the V-shape knot and up and through to the front side of the knot.  Tuck the wide end down through the front loop of the knot.
