Here's one more configuration of the humble neck tie.
Basically they're made the same way as a rose ribbon with some stitches to hold it all together and a friggin' huge safety pin on the back. Those with more class may choose to use brooch pins, available to all at the sewing Mecca which is Spotlight.
Cost: $1 from Malvern op-shop. However many second hand shops are getting pretty savvy with pricing silk ties and they can set you back up to $8. I usually look for ones which are patterned, but won't teleport me back to the 1980's
