Celebrating National Bow Tie Day The Inkopious Way
There’s a day dedicated to most things and this time, it’s the turn of bow ties! Let’s delve into some fun facts about the bow tie, then head to the part that, let’s be honest, we’re really writing this for – dogs wearing bow ties!
When is National Bow Tie Day?
National Bow Tie Day takes place on August 28th every year. So, dig out those bow ties to wear, or if you’re like us, to dress up your pooch! Not got a bow tie? We’ve got several doggie designs that incorporate bow ties (like this Ollie the Vizsla Hooded Sweatshirt), so you can still join in with the fun!
Fun Bow Tie Facts
- The bow tie originates from Croatia in the 17th Century.
- According to Guiness World Records, the largest bow tie ever made measured a whopping 3.42m wide and 2.13m tall and was created in San Diego, California.
- The most popular time to wear this accessory is on New Year’s Eve, followed by Christmas, Halloween, Valentine’s Day, and National Bow Tie Day.
