Ties That Bind
The necktie is experiencing a remarkable resurgence in men’s fashion, seamlessly blending traditional elegance with modern flair. Recent runway shows have prominently showcased ties, signaling their return as a staple accessory in contemporary wardrobes.
At Milan Men’s Fashion Week, classic menswear items like neckties took center stage, with innovative styling such as layering ties with knitwear or even wearing multiple ties simultaneously. These bold, boundary-pushing ensembles reimagined the necktie, reaffirming its place in the evolving landscape of men’s fashion.
This revival reflects a broader movement toward refined dressing, where timeless elements are given new life through contemporary reinterpretation. The rediscovery of the tie’s versatility and expressive potential highlights its enduring role as an essential component of men’s style.
At Crane Brothers, we celebrate this return to elegance with our Pure Silk Ties, handcrafted in Como, Italy. Renowned as the world’s finest silk manufacturing region, Como combines centuries-old techniques with luxurious materials to produce ties of exceptional quality and timeless sophistication.
