I have not yet purchased from this place but they might have what you are looking for.I like to wear a small bowtie, preferably diamond point, above a simple sweather vest.
DANG, though, they are hard to find and expensive.
There used to be a mens store in my small town that carried them, about the same price as a straight tie, and they had all sorts of patterns.
Of course, that was 30 years ago.
But I should have bought a bale of them then.

Here's a great instructional video on YouTube. It saved me from endless frustration...I only wished that I had come across it sooner!
Thanks for the compliments, gentlemen! I must admit being a bit self-conscious when wearing a bow tie. Given your comments, I need to be less so!
I've posted this before, but this YouTube video is the one that finally helped me to figure out how to tie a bow tie.
Bow tie club http://www.bowtieclub.com/ sells ties with your choice of the standard butterfly, diamond point or my favorite, straight edge.

Two from these past few days... including the Friday one...
Both are batwing style. The red plaid one is fairly thick - this means it is difficult for "dimples" to form each side of the loop, or for wrinkles to appear in the loop itself, both of which are features I favour.
One from today.
