Buy NowRegal and Refined The Vintage Vibes of Mauve Raphael discovered this particular pattern on a vintage tie in an old shop and he loved it so much that he was inspired to create something similar for our Fort Belvedere collection. Consisting of an array of cut-corner tiles in cool purples and blues, the decadent mauve body of this tie is typical of the jewel-tone adjacent hues favored during the Golden Age of Menswear.
Set the Mood for Day or Night Along with burgundy, mauve is an iconic color in the realm of informal evening attire. This tie is therefore admirably suited to wearing with ensembles typical of the Black Tie Optional, Semi-Formal, and Cocktail Attire dress codes. Add a white shirt, dark suit, and black shoes, and you’re ready for any cocktail party, business dinner, or evening wedding reception.
But this color and pattern are sufficiently versatile for daytime as well! A dark suit will tone down the more vibrant purple elements, and thanks to the sedate blue elements, this tie is no stranger to the boardroom or office. Pair it was a brighter suit in light brown, tan, or ivory, however, and its mauve will pop, providing suitable decoration for any dandy.
Considerations for the Collar This knot has sufficient visual and physical weight to pair well with any variety of shirt. With a narrower collar, the bold color and unique pattern keep all eyes on the slightly-obscured knot. With wider collars, the interplay of the tie’s body and pattern prevent the eye of the viewer from becoming overwhelmed.
For Your Tie Knot Although this tie will look marvelous with any tie knot you may select, we have found that knots that produce a medium or large knot look exceptionally well with the pattern, as it prevents the tiles from appearing cut-off or awkward. Therefore, a full windsor or a half-windsor knot would both be ideal options.
