Did you know that ties were “out” but now they’re back in? (Is it just us or do we sound like Heidi Klum?). We didn’t either, but today’s NY Times “Thursday Styles” section told us so.

Along with Gawker Media videomeister Nick McGlynn we visited Rockefeller Plaza to poll male professionals as to where and when they wear neckwear… and if their ties ever get used for “sealing the deal” outside the boardroom. Their responses, above.
