Collezione Don Mimì - LOGO

Length: 130 cm
Width: 16 cm
Material: 100% printed silk satin
Color: Light blue background with geometric pattern
Production: Handcrafted, Made in Italy

The printed silk satin reflects light in a controlled manner, focusing on a rigorous geometric pattern on a light blue background. This double-pointed ascot is cut to fall flat on the chest, accurately filling the shirt's neckline. It is a sartorial choice for days when a tie feels like too much, but an open collar is insufficient.

Style and Pairing Advice

  • Friday in the studio: The calibrated alternative to a tie when the agenda involves informal meetings but requires rigor. The light blue silk illuminates opaque winter fabrics.
    Outfit: Charcoal grey flannel jacket, heavy white oxford shirt open by one button, worsted wool trousers, black calfskin loafers.
  • Weekend getaway: The silk satin creates an excellent material contrast with carded and rough yarns. The double point sits perfectly under knitwear.
    Outfit: Chunky dark blue cashmere cardigan, light blue cotton flannel shirt, hazelnut moleskin trousers, brown suede chukka boots.
  • Dinner at the club: A controlled touch of color for the evening. The geometric pattern adds depth without distracting the eye from the ensemble.
    Outfit: Midnight blue smooth velvet double-breasted blazer, ivory poplin shirt, grey tailored trousers, burgundy brushed leather lace-ups.

The tailor's advice: The double-pointed ascot should be tied softly and positioned in direct contact with the skin. To prevent the smooth silk from slipping during the day, cross the ends, spreading them well over the chest before buttoning the shirt, leaving the top two buttons undone.

Product care: Professional dry cleaning only. Never iron directly on silk: in case of folds, use an interposed cotton cloth and iron at a very low temperature, or leave the ascot hanging in a humid room for a few minutes. Store untied and softly folded, never crushed under weights.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you tie a double-pointed ascot? +
It is wrapped around the neck, placing one end over the other and passing it inside, just like a simple knot. The two ends are then spread and tucked inside the buttoned shirt, in direct contact with the skin.
Does silk satin make you sweat if worn in contact with the neck? +
No, pure silk is a highly breathable and thermoregulating natural fiber. It retains body heat in the cold months without creating the damp effect typical of synthetic materials.
Can I wear this ascot in formal contexts? +
The ascot was created for elegant daywear and semi-formal contexts. It does not replace the tie in rigid business occasions or ceremonies, but it is perfect for separates, clubs, and high-level leisure time.
What is the difference between this model and a plastron? +
The double-pointed ascot, or neck cravat, is worn by unbuttoning the shirt collar and tucked inside. The plastron, on the other hand, is structured, tied on the outside of specific stiff collars, and reserved for very formal ceremonies.
