National Necktie Day falls on October 18 every year. The day honors the invention of neckties. The modern necktie that we love and wear is the creation of Croatian mercenaries who wore it as a neck protector.   
 

National Necktie Day is a popular holiday in Croatia and it is celebrated with great zeal across the country. We invite you to attend wearing your best tie and the pass on the blue and black to embrace funky colors for this day.
