I voted for fezes. Everyone I've ever met who habitually wears bowties as part of their professional working attire has been smug and annoying.
 
This, this is a cool fez.

I've been wearing Bow Ties for a while now (albiet not slim ones), because it has saves me time in the morning not having to tie a neck tie and at the same time give me a more distinguished (and scholarly??), apprearance.

When I was young, members of my 'crew' would frown :blink: on wearing a bow tie in that there are only worn by grumby old professors and the like, but now...the more I see them worn (The 'Price is Right' host Drew Carey and 'Sunday Morning' Host Charles Osgood just to name a few), the more I like them. Call it a 'zen' momment...at a time for change is in order and maybe 'just what the doctor ordered'.

Also, beacause my carpal tunnel syndrome in both wrists is fairing not up to par (not to say the least of my symptoms of MS)...I wear an assortment (10), of high quaility Pre-Tied Adjustable Neck Band Bow Ties (and I no longer wear dress shirts with collor buttons either),. :lol1:

Also, I like wearing bow ties because it would look as another unique, distinctive and professional look / statement (hey...I even got positive comments on the argyle socks I sometimes wear), because as member Robert (a.k.a. BladeRunner001), so eloquently put it, "You can either come across as a Pee-wee Herman or [Sir] W[inston] Churchill". :thumbsup:

I voted giant multi-colored ties because I do not like bow ties except for Diamond Tip black for black tie events

Fezes are cool too...but in my opinion as a Smoking Cap (see mine below...which I rarely wear unless I'm attending a local cigar event). :yesnod:

Edward Hardwicke (7 Aug 32-16 May 11), played Sherlock Holmes (played by Jeremy Brett), 'devoted companion and biographer' Dr. Watson (who played the role for eight years from 1986 to 1994), in the TV series "The Return of Sherlock Holmes". In many of those episodes on PBS, he was often seen smoking a cigar (besides cigarettes and a pipe). :thumbsup:

I voted Fez, but what about wearing a piece of celery on ones lapel?

You have to have the cricket jumper as well (Peter Davison is my favourite Doctor of the classic series)! However, I do wear bow ties from time to time and I do think they're cool. They're fun but they're the minority of my collection (nine self-tie bow ties to 23 neck ties).

... note that he never has to remind us that Harris Tweed jackets are cool.

Bow Ties. We instituted a Bow Tie Tuesday at work. Not everyone wears one, but all who do get compliments from the students.

Why not an option with check boxes for all three? I have the scarf, check, I have bow ties for when they're needed, check, I am however missing the Fez (though the gaming fez of power would be nice, see pvponline for reference).
