While the modern necktie emerged in the 1920s, the story really begins in the 17th century, during the Thirty Years’ War in France. King Louis XIII hired Croatian soldiers who wore a piece of cloth around their neck as part of their uniform. Louis loved it (as did his son, Louis XIV, shown), and even named it “La Cravate” after the Croatians he took it from.
The French Steinkirk (kind of a looser version of the cravat) followed shortly after at the end of the 17th century, and the stock tie came not long after that (think two giant rectangles of fabric crossing over each other).
By the 1800s, touching another man’s neckwear was apparently grounds for a duel. This is also the period when we start to see some of the ties that we’re more familiar with today
