Verified claims
- material
- 100% silk
- construction
- Tartan jacquard woven into the silk, not printed
- dimensions
- 8.5 cm wide blade, 147 cm total length
- fit
- One size; 147 cm suits most average-height wearers, but shorter, taller or rounder frames may need a different knot or length
- knots
- Full length supports Four-in-Hand, Half Windsor and double Windsor knots; aim for the tip to touch the top of the belt buckle
- width
- 8.5 cm blade pairs well with 8–9 cm suit lapels; a Half Windsor gives a balanced, symmetrical knot
- comfort
- Silk is breathable, temperature-regulating and hypoallergenic, with a soft drape and a knot that holds its shape
- durability
- Silk fibres are strong, but the finished fabric is delicate and can water-spot; protect it from prolonged sunlight and moisture
- care
- Dry clean only, gentle cycle, professional cleaning recommended; do not wash, bleach or tumble dry; cool iron if needed
- care
- A light touch of steam is enough for smoothing, and direct ironing is best avoided
- care
- Untie and rest flat after wearing; silk's natural memory helps it return to shape
- construction
- Classic silhouette with a wide blade tapering to a pointed tip, keeper loop and tonal stitching
- design
- Embroidered orb motif on the lower blade
- origin
- Made in Italy
- styling
- Can be worn casually with an unstructured jacket, relaxed shirt or lightweight knitwear
- styling
- Patterned Navy is the conservative business choice; Teal Blue is the more distinctive option for a navy-heavy rotation
- variants
- Two colourways, Teal Blue and Patterned Navy; both are tartan, not solid, and both are one size at the same price and stock
- value
- Woven silk jacquard offers richer colour, depth and pattern refinement than a polyester tie
- tradeoff
- Delicate care requirements make this a rotation tie rather than an everyday beater
- brand heritage
- Vivienne Westwood's punk and Baroque identity shapes the tie's tartan-and-orb design
