It seems that throughout Your Song, and into the Spectacular! Spectacular! (The Pitch) scene, no one could decide if Christian is meant to be wearing his bow tie, or not. From the beginning, Christian starts with his bowtie on, Satine removes it during her passionate adepts at removing his clothing, and it reappears during the sky dance, perfectly tied. It disappears the moment Satine and he arrive back in the Elephant, and stays gone until Christian begins narrating the story of "The Pitch" and it reappears, untied, laying around his neck. After "The Pitch" is over, it disappears again.
