The idea behind

Old fashioned.

Milan has always been the crossroad between Italy and the rest of the World. In Gentlemen’s style the most influencing one was the British style.

This particular tie is the Milan’s version in blue of Madder  ties born in UK: the dusty effect on the rich and bold colors is perfectly balanced with the prints and the light twill, giving an fresh old fashioned allure.

 

The fabric

The shell

Silk twill from the best silk factories in Como.

The polished finishing is selected to create a soft sensation keeping all the main features of the silk.

The interlinings

Double lining: mid weight pure virgin wool and brushed cotton. This particular solution helps to create a compact tie perfect for every knot avoiding wrinkles.

Handmade self-tipped with the blue twill silk tipping.
The shell and the interlinings are meticulously selected for a well balance tie. The natural materials help the tie to go back to its original shape avoiding wrinkles.

Matching

This tie is more traditional than the green sister but with the the same bold and dapper personality.
It is still for the Gentleman who wants to dare but in a more quiet way.
Blue or grey suits or Tweed jackets are more then welcome.

Details

The bar-tack is handmade and covered with the iconic saffron tissue. It is sewed 20 cm from the end of the blade increasing the quantity of silk used for tipping: this choice is important to keep the shape of the blade always perfect.
The classic shape is updated with a 8 cm blade width.
Each tie is sold in its iconic box.


Each tie has to go through five different quality check points before being delivered to the owner: form the silk to the final packaging everything is checked and handmade in Italy.
