Formal silks range from silver patterns and stripes worn traditionally at weddings and other formal events such as annual horse races to grenadines which men wear at more modern events. We have had our formal silks woven for many years both in England and Italy.
James recently emailed us to ask about making a formal cravat from our wedding silks. The answer is that it is a classic look and we can make different variations such as a pleated ascot or a formal one without the pleats. Below are rolls of our new formal silks custom woven for us by Anna Bianchi in the north of Italy. Ordering by the roll is very important for making luxury ties as the rolls allow you to make any size or construction tie or ascot when requested.
Funerals often call for solid black ties and some men keep one on hand only for funerals, but my view which some may not agree with is that a black silk grenadine tie can be fashionably worn anywhere and is not limited to funerals or waiters...
