    Me to most of these ties: Oh, I like that tie, I would definitely get that in blue.
    The rest of my wardrobe: MORE blue?
    I definitely have a blue problem, and I'm not talking about feeling down

    I went to an all-boys Catholic high school where we wore ties every day, For years, I wore ties every day at work. I love ties (I've got about a hundred). These days, my favorites are solid color silk knit ties which go with any shirt I wear - solids, stripes, or checks.

    Regarding the association ties at 17:19 they are still very common in the UK. I tend to see more regimental ties than club ties where I live in Scotland, the most common in my area being Black Watch. You will see ex military men, often older, wearing their blazers, grey trousers and regimental ties marching on Remembrance Sunday. Any time my grandfather got dressed up, he didn't really wear suits - each Sunday for church or a dinner or event or whatever, he wore his blazer, grey trousers, black shoes and regimental tie.

    I think the tie should be in the iconic bottle green of Fort Belvedere and right beneath the knot could be the Ft. Belvedere logo. The rest could have stripes in ivory or a pale yellow similar to a repp stripe tie.

    Last fall I decided that I needed a knit tie. I happened to have a shirt which was off white but had a checked pattern in brown, tan, navy, and dark red. This combination works very well with a brown corduroy vest and a brown tweed sport coat, and tan corduroy trousers. I think it's a great fall outfit. Now to find a nice pocket square to go with the jacket.

    For whatever reason I balk at any rough knit ties or any kind. I am considering a Navy Grenadine due to all the recommendations on the net, but it has to be "fina" for me to even consider buying it. Edit - as I review my ties from over 15-20 years ago, all handmade 100% silk in conservative patterns, it appears that any kind of sheen seems to out of fashion in favor of muted weaves.

    Most times I do not need a "formal" tie, I need an elegant and outstanding tie.

    This may be a "dumb" question, but where do tie patterns come from? Tie patterns intrigue me because they are so various and seemingly random. I've never seen two of the same tie patterns, not speaking of popular weaves, so they're kind of like works of art.

    • @gentlemansgazette

    Edit: And while we're at it (if we are), the same question goes for the yellow tie @11:22 / 14:00. I believe, both are the same. I have never really been a die hard tie guy, but those are fantastic and have the potential to change my opinion on this quite strongly.

      @HermanVonPetri Před rokem +2

      It may have more to do with the articles of clothing that are actually available in those colors.
      You may be able to find a plumb/aubergine colored suit or jacket that doesn't make you look like The Joker, but they are certainly less common than other colors. A pastel yellow jacket is certainly in the cards for spring/summer if you're of a bold nature. But wearing it with a purple tie may make it look like you're attending an Easter egg hunt.
      Of course, shades of tan, straw and mustard are in the yellow family and could certainly pair with purples like plumb, lilac or violet. I'm sure that those with a better eye than me can find a combination that suits them well, and I salute anyone who can pull it off.
