    “Your tie should always be darker than your shirt.” is the typical rule. With that in mind, most dress shirts are white, pale blue, or pastel. So there is very little use cases for a white long tie. This does change for “White tie dress” which is a totally different discussion

      Interesting, haven’t heard this rule before. This must be it then as nothing is lighter than white.
