The tie would go at the bottom - assuming he is wearing contemporary clothing. Just like the style of today is to wear shirts that end at your collarbone and not your chin, a giraffe wearing current day clothes would have a shirt that ‘ends’ where his neck ‘begins’ and the tie would go there. If this were an historical era where people wore high-neck collars with ties (which would be anachronistic, but whatever), the tie might be higher on the neck. But we don’t do that today so, no, a giraffe’s tie in 2018 would certainly be tied at the bottom.
Agreed. Assuming giraffe fashion followed human standards- the length of the neck doesn’t change where a tie is worn, and the collar is at the neck opening which is cut to the tops of the shoulders and not the top of the neck. The only logical answer to the contrary would be that if in giraffe society they decided to wear ties on the upper neck. Similar to how high heels were once men’s attire in most human societies with such shoes, but became women’s fashion. So there is room for giraffes to appropriate the tie but choose to defy contemporary human fashion. In fact, if there were some sort of struggle for rights or resentment by toe wearing giraffes for how humans treated their species, they may intentionally wear ties “wrong” as a manner of counter culture. All speculative of course. The most reasonable answer is “lower neck” as you say.
