Abstract
This invention is for any geometrical shapes or knots shape semi or full detachable from a neck wear assembly commonly use as in ties, scarf, cravats but not limited to. This can be used to replicate the look of knots or other geometrical shapes. This invention is the most convenient for the consumer who wants to be on the go and look professional and stylish without sacrificing the quality. The shapes make it appear as if the consumer spent a lot of time to have the perfect tie knot shape. It also gives the feel of a regular neckwear tie, scarf or cravat without the hassle. These shapes have helped solve this issue where anyone can put the knot shapes on without help other than reading or viewing the instructions once. Consumers can have tie at different lengths without having to redo the tie.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
(86) Knots/Ties/Scarf/Bow Tie/Loop Slider/Knot Hook/Pocket Square
(87) All designs for the simulated knots and Geometric shapes can be interchangeable or made in a different housing other than what is illustrated. The drawings are for illustration purposes only and not the only way the accessory device can be made. It is to give a prospective by drawing what the shape may look like. The Knots can be in any geometrical shape. The strap design retains tie in a specified position there can also be several straps across or none. The knot housing can be made in different depending on the simulated knot shape. The inner layer of tie knot can be made with different shapes mold. Some design can also contain a fabric stiffener.
(88) Other designs includes where the simulated knots or actual knots are placed on the tie and can be closed securely without requiring the straps. Some designs are secure with a hook, which can be placed at several locations on the knot depending on the use. Not all designs are illustrated in drawings.
(89) This patent also covers all ties, neck wear but not limited to that can use interchangeable knots or simulated knots and or geometric shapes. Also, personalized and customized images on the knot or simulated knot removable or permanent.
(90) The cover for the simulated knots can be made as a cover to compliment the design of the housing. Another method will be to glue on fabric to the housing. There are several methods to achieve the finish look to the simulated knots.
(91) The simulated knots and geometric shapes can be used for other items including window treatment, etc. Tie knots can be attached or simulated as an image on the swim suits or article or clothing.
(92) The package for the tie can be sold in sets of multiple knots and tie to help consumer reduce cost by buying a package deal. The knots can also be sold individually so consumer can mix and match colors.
(93) This invention is very modern and reduces time the consumer takes to make the perfect tie making each tie perfect
(94) The tie can be shorter than the regular tie because the knot is not made with the tie, which would require less material for the tie. The tie can also be made with or without a flexible stiffing in order to guide the tie end through the accessory bar easily.
(95) Loop slider is used to secure the tie and shirt together but not limited to that function only.
(96) The knot hook is used to secure the two ends of the knots at the back to secure what may be inside including tie, flowers, etc.
(97) Pocket Square design is used to give consumer several options to reduce cost with a single item.
(98) Towel Wrap/Cape/Body Wrap/Bathing Suits/Clothing Article and Diaper
(99) The different articles mentioned above can have 1 or multiple slits but not limited to the slits shown in the illustration to hold the design and function of the article together.
(100) Material for Simulated Knots, Geometric Shapes, Ties, Swim Suits, Scarf, Diaper, Clothing, Knot Accessories/Pocket Square/Tie Knot Accessory/Loop Slider
(101) This invention is not limited to any specific material however it can be plastic, metal, stiffing fabric but not limited to. The method of making the simulated shapes will determine which material is used to guarantee best results. 1. The tie, scarf, neck wear knots, pocket square will be the same color fabric as the tie or can also be different colors, images, logos, personalized and customized. 2. The back straps can be made of an elastic type material, or regular fabric or plastic, metal, stiffening fabric, ribbon but not limited to. 3. The material for the new adjusted length ties can be standard, luxury or custom made. 4. Material for the tie, scarf, Pocket Square can be made of any fabric including silk, polyester but not limited to. 5. Material for stiffing at the end of the narrow side of the tie can be made of any flexible material that can be used as a guide when putting the tie through the knot bars at the back. This can be sewn in the tie and not be visible but not limited to that specific attachment style 6. Material for Swim suits, diaper or any application where this design can be used can be any suitable fabric and material desired by the consumer. 7. Tie knot accessories can be made with precious stones, costume accessories, appliqus but not limited to 8. Loop slider and knot hook can be made with metal or any durable material that may be flexible to hold the tie and shirt secure.
