Product Insights
Paul Smith’s Tulips Pure Silk Tie, 250 CAD and in stock, is a 100% silk tie in the balanced 22–25 momme band whose defining constraint is that its off-white tulip and dot scatter is printed onto a deep navy ground rather than woven as jacquard, yielding a smooth, flat, warp-faced face with a soft natural lustre and heat-set dye that keeps the motif vivid while the palest passages remain undyed base silk. Its 3 inch (7.5 cm) blade sits in the era-neutral 3–3.25 inch band; the softer, more fluid printed-silk folds dimple at the knot, and the silk springs back after tightening without setting a hard crease. Extending a decade-long Paul Smith botanical menswear theme, the navy ground covers formal and professional dress codes, but the design’s practical horizon favors navy, charcoal, or black suits for autumn, winter, and evening over light summer suiting.
