The Bow Ties in world power. Winston Churchill
The other day, we asked a friend to be inspired by the world of bow ties, and this is an article that he came up with, all by himself. That for tastes, colors. But what is special about this article is the intense relationship that our historical figure had with the bow tie :)
We hope you like it

The hrvatska , a humble men's garment born in the Croatian army for practical reasons; copied and transformed into a fashion item by the French king Louis XIV and called cravat ; achieved such success; that crossed the borders to England, where with the help of the Dandy of the time, Lord Brummel, he shone among the English male community.
This is how, in its current name, bow tie , it distinguishes who wears it; and it is linked to contemporary Universal History, along with a top hat or felt hat and a cigar; which is the iconographic set of the man who saved England: Winston Churchill , the most famous diplomatic and political character who was distinguished by his statesmanship, his fine and sarcastic humor and his shocking and even lapidary phrases. Winston Churchill , the most influential and media personality of the 20th century who wore bow ties.
Some of the snapshot images of Winston Churchill show him wearing a top hat and an original bow tie knotted around his neck, while forming the letter V with two fingers, indicating the Victory of the United Kingdom and the Allied forces over Nazi Germany (Second World War); when he was already British Prime Minister. And it occurs to us to wonder if the use of original and fun bow ties has had an impact on the personality of characters who have stood out in History or if, on the contrary, this garment has been used by famous people to validate that other people's opinions hold them. without a care, because their fashion standards are different and unique, to the extent that they are only dedicated to developing their intellect and skills. We believe that the latter is the case of Winston Churchill , who, during the world war, uttered one of his most famous phrases: “I have nothing more to offer than blood, effort, tears and sweat.”
And in today's media world, Churchill would be the greatest global influencer in politics; and perhaps he would have saved Britain, with his gift of words alone; while with a different bow tie each time, he drank, instead of Whiskey, the Manhattan cocktail created by his mother, some time before his birth. And it is necessary to note that her birth occurred after her mother's night of dancing. Who wouldn't be tempted to feel and behave differently with these preliminaries to life? But none of this changes, which inspired many lives in its time and made an entire nation pray for a miracle; while wearing fun bow ties that matched his personality.
And although the concept and figure of Influencer was not known at the time he lived, he did have a media halo that made him stand out. So much so that, even in the solemn context of the awarding of the Nobel Prize for Literature to him in 1953, he could not refrain from making a joke during his speech, when he commented that he trusted the impartiality of judgment of the Swedish Academy.
With his bow tie , felt hat and a cigar on his lips, he entered history and triggered world events and outcomes, with his overwhelming personality. To the extent that when the United States of America tried to ignore him and ignore him so as not to enter the conflict that devastated Europe, Churchill carried out tireless activity and with his personal charm and persuasion skills he achieved the support of that nation against the Nazi advance. Such was his influence and the crucial role he played in history, with his strong and eccentric personality; intelligence; iron will, inexhaustible anecdotes and his original bow ties, who achieved the feat of leading the British resistance to Nazi pretensions and ensuring that British freedom was maintained; to the extent that the gratitude of an entire people allowed the current Queen of England to grant Churchill, upon his death, the first State funeral of the Royal Hierarchy to a commoner who, in addition, as a symbol of status, wore different bow ties and fun.
Only a unique personality like Winston Churchill gave him the media power that other statesmen of his stature did not have and made him create forceful, funny or lapidary phrases, like that: “Gentlemen, we are alone. For my part, I find the situation extremely stimulating” (spoken before his ministers during the Nazi advance) and which, with his natural intelligence, he could have softened with this other later phrase: “I am an optimist, since I do not find it useful to be another stuff". And only an optimist in life, in the face of immense adversity and responsibilities, could wear his bow ties with class.
