The silk and cotton blend removes shine and adds substance. To the touch, this 3-fold tie has a dry hand that dialogues perfectly with summer fabrics without looking like a compromise. Dark blue background, small brown and light blue flowers: a classic geometry that works best when the knot remains deliberately imperfect and the suit is worn with ease.

The tailor's advice: The silk and cotton blend fabric has a structure that holds the fold well but doesn't slip like pure silk. The ideal knot here is a half Windsor tightened at the base: it creates the right dimple and doesn't loosen during the day, maintaining a decisive and compact shape.

Product care: Dry clean. Do not iron directly on the fabric: use an interposed cotton cloth at a low temperature so as not to flatten the edges. At the end of the day, completely untie the knot and leave it hanging. If one day it wears out or needs fixing, there is our Tie Hospital — the only regeneration service in Italy. Send it to us, it will get back in shape.
