Abstract
A necktie positioning device having an elongated body member which engages a sliding member which is joined to an arm. The arm projects outwardly from the body member and is adapted for insertion in a belt loop, and, when so inserted, and when the inner flap of a tie is held against a preselected marking on the body member, the device determines the correct length of tie prior to tying.
