How Do You Tie A Stock Tie?

To tie a stock tie you will have to wrap your tie around your neck. To do this you will need to first drape the tie  such that both ends are pointed toward your back, then bring around both ends back to the front such that the cross over each other. You can then secure your tie to your shirt in front with the help of the front stud.
Get a hold of the right end of your tie and pass it both over and then under the left. Tighten it, such that the left end is kept hanging down.

You will have to make a loop using the right end, through which the left end needs to be passed. For a smooth knot you can then tighten it and straighten out. The final step involves crossing both ends and securing with a tie pin.
