Silk tie with a subtle pattern for a refined look.
How to wear it
- The tip of your tie should fall precisely at or just over your belt — neither above nor below.
- Match the width to your lapels: a narrow tie of 6 to 7 cm for narrow lapels, 8 to 9 cm for classic lapels.
- Choose your knot to suit your collar: a small knot for a narrow point collar, a fuller knot for a wide cutaway collar.
- A dimple just below the knot gives your tie depth: press it in with your index finger as you tighten the knot.
Do's
- Always button the top button of your shirt when wearing a tie.
- Choose a tie that is darker than your shirt.
- Combine patterns at different scales: a fine stripe with a large check.
- Untie your tie the same way you tied it after wearing and hang it up: this keeps the fabric looking its best.
Don'ts
- Never wear a tie that sits above your belt or hangs far below it.
- Don't let the narrow end show below the wide end: tuck it through the loop on the back.
- Avoid a glossy silk tie with tweed or flannel; choose wool, knit or grenadine instead.
- Never wear a tie and pocket square in exactly the same fabric and print — let them complement each other, not match.
How to tie it
Four-in-hand knot
Slim and slightly asymmetrical. Works with almost any collar and is the easiest to tie.
- Drape the tie around your neck, wide end on the right and about 30 cm lower than the narrow end.
- Cross the wide end over the narrow end to the left.
- Bring the wide end back underneath to the right.
- Cross it once more over the front to the left.
- Pull the wide end up through the loop at your neck from underneath.
- Thread it down through the front loop and slide the knot up to tighten.
Half Windsor
Fuller and symmetrical. Perfect with a wider collar and for a wedding or business suit.
- Drape the tie around your neck, wide end on the right and about 30 cm lower than the narrow end.
- Cross the wide end over the narrow end to the left.
- Bring the wide end back behind the narrow end to the right.
- Pull it up and through the loop at your neck from above, then down.
- Drape the wide end across the front from right to left.
- Pull it up through the loop at your neck from below again.
- Thread it through the knot at the front and gently tighten everything.

More Information
Je wast zijde het beste met de hand in koud tot lauw water (maximaal 30°C) met een mild wasmiddel voor wol/zijde. Was binnenstebuiten en apart of met soortgelijke kleuren. Wrijf niet hard, laat niet weken en wring het kledingstuk niet uit. Spoel rustig uit met schoon, koud water.
Je stopt zijde niet in de droger. Druk het water zachtjes uit met een handdoek en leg het kledingstuk plat te drogen op een schone, droge handdoek. Laat het drogen in de schaduw, uit direct zonlicht en weg van warmtebronnen.
Je strijkt zijde op lage temperatuur (één punt). Strijk binnenstebuiten en gebruik bij voorkeur een persdoek tussen het strijkijzer en de stof. Beweeg het strijkijzer rustig en gebruik alleen lichte druk. Gebruik eventueel een beetje stoom op lage stand.

Silk
Silk is spun from the cocoons of the silkworm. The fibre is strong, light and has a natural lustre that gives depth to colours. That's why silk is the go-to choice for ties, bow ties and pocket squares.
