Wearing a tie pin with a chain correctly involves positioning it properly on your tie and securing the chain to your shirt. Here's a breakdown of the steps:
Steps for Wearing a Tie Pin with a Chain
-
Positioning the Tie Pin: Place the tie pin in the middle of your tie. According to references, a good rule of thumb is to position it about a hands-width above the first button of your jacket (or above your belly button).
-
Securing the Chain:
- The tie pin will have a t-bar or a similar mechanism attached to a chain.
- Push the t-bar through the fabric of your tie and shirt, ensuring it goes through the closest buttonhole on your shirt.
- Gently pull the chain so that there's a slight drape.
-
Buttoning Up: Button up your shirt button to secure the t-bar in place. This will keep your tie pin from moving and ensure the chain hangs neatly.
