Just like any piece of clothing, a neck tie must say something about what kind of man the wearer is. It is the most important accessory which matches with any shirt of pants. You just have to be aware 
of what style works on you.
These are the basic things you must keep in mind if you're buying a necktie for your husband.
1. What is his style? Make sure that this reflects his personality and it matches the shirts he has.
2. The safest material for necktie (to suit whichever shirt) is silk-polyester blend or polyester.
3. The inner side of the tie must have the same stuff that looks good on your husband.
4. There are standard neckties ranging from 52 up to 58 inches. To make it special for your husband, it is best that you have it customized.
5. The lining of the tie must hold its shape no matter how much your husband bends. This is because the high quality ties are usually lined up with 100% wool.
6. Good quality ties are those that cut across the fabric. You can test this by tying it in a loop on your hand. If it twirls in the air, it is not made of good quality.
7. Closely inspect the tie and check whether there are loose ends or threads.
8. Rough silk ties only mean that they are of not good quality.
Then there is the question most women consider before buying ties for their men: will it suit them?
1. Check whether the front end of the tie is long enough and touches the waist.
2. If the man you are buying for is not the cheery type, at least not in public, do not buy ties that are too bright. He wouldn't have any use for it.
3. If he is the corporate kind of guy, it's smart to get ties that have darker shades. He can match these with both light and dark shade shirts. Just make sure that the color is not so light that it easily fades with the shirt. Also check that it is not too dark that it clashes with the whole outfit.
4. If he loves wearing patterned ties, the color of his shirts should complement the color of his suit.
5. Check what material he has. For example, if he has a woolen suit, then get him a woolen tie. If he has a silken shirt, then get him a silky tie.

Never allow your husband to wear cartoon or symbol ties during formal occasions like meetings. Sure we remind you to get ties reflecting the man's personality, but you should also make it suitable to the occasion.
