Abstract: A necktie button for a necktie (2) provided with a front button part (3) which defines the button shape and a rear part (4) which is able to be joined to the front button part (3) for holding the necktie (2) between these two parts (3, 4). The rear part (4) is designed as a clip part for clipping the necktie button on the shirt. Both parts (3, 4) are designed in a way that a necktie (2) made from a flexible material, folded at desired positions in a transverse direction with the folded end (2a) is able to be hung and/or clipped between the two parts (3, 4). In this way any elegant necktie button may be combined with an existing necktie.

Abstract: A collar bar that fits within the open collar of a shirt including a first elongated member sized in length to span and hold the open collar of the shirt. A first pair of clips, with one secured to each of the opposite ends of the elongated member, attaches the elongated member to the shirt to maintain the shirt in its open condition. A second pair of clips, each of which is secured to the elongated member near each of the clips of the first pair, secures the opposed lateral edges of the ascot to the collar bar to prevent the ascot from shifting as the knot loosens. The first and second pairs of clips may take various forms, or they may coincide, thereby serving both functions simultaneously, and the elongated member may be adjustable in length.
