In order to create the collar, I first started by by deleting a couple of polygons located at the top of the shirt.
I then selected the edges around this deleted area and extruded them upwards. I then separated the front two vertices.
From the side, the collar now looks like this:
The next task was to arrange the front of the collar so that there was a slight gap where the bow tie would go.
To create the bow tie, I started off with a standard chamferred box and scaled it to an acceptable size.
The next task was slightly more difficult. In order to create the triangular section of the bow tie, I created another chamferred box, and scaled the inside vertices towards each other to meet the first chamferred box I created in the last stage. I then selected the edges either side of the middle of the triangle, and pulled them in (also pulling the middle out). This gave the ripple effect of the bow tie.
Simply by cloning the triangle and rotating it 100 degrees, I was then left with what looks very close to a bow tie object. The ripple in the tie looks very effective, and I am pleased with the way that this has come out.
