Length: 148 cm
Width: 8 cm
Material: 100% challis wool
Color: Light blue background with a burgundy geometric pattern
Production: Handcrafted, Made in Italy
Challis wool has a different drape from silk: it is light, opaque, with a soft hand that absorbs colors and returns them with rigor. In this 3-fold tie, the cool light blue background welcomes a burgundy geometric pattern, creating a sharp but disciplined contrast. It is an accessory designed for the winter months, when the textures of outerwear and suits require materials with a defined textural presence.
Style and Pairing Advice
- Board of directors: The light blue of the challis wool visually lightens heavy winter fabrics while keeping institutional authority intact.
Outfit: Smoke grey flannel suit, classic collar white poplin shirt, black oxford lace-up shoes. - Business lunch: The opacity of the wool dialogues perfectly with rough surfaces, making the whole cohesive and reasoned.
Outfit: Tweed jacket in shades of blue, light grey cashmere V-neck sweater, navy fustian trousers, dark brown leather loafers. - Club meeting: A combination that exploits the warmth of winter weights and the chromatic precision of burgundy and light blue.
Outfit: Dark blue wool cloth coat, blue twill shirt, medium grey tailored trousers, smooth black leather chelsea boots.
The tailor's advice: Challis wool, despite having a winter vocation, maintains a fine structure. To enhance the 8 cm width and the 3-fold drape, I suggest a half-Windsor knot: it fills the collar space without asymmetry and enhances the geometry of the print.
Product care: Dry clean only. Do not iron directly on the fabric to avoid a shiny effect on the wool fibers; use an interposed cotton cloth at low temperature. Store the tie untied and hung. If over time it needs a sartorial intervention due to wear or accidents, our tie regeneration service is the only one in Italy structured to restore its original shape.
