Plus, wouldn't non-matching but coordinating pocket squares be better than a matching set?

You would have to wear them with a summer suit, though some (I was thinking the yellow and red) might work with a light grey or a navy.

As for the pocket squares. I wouldn't match. I would either wear the tie and a white pocket square, or the pocket square and a different tie.

Hi Quixote,

You read our minds. Those self-tied bow ties are in the workds. Most of the new designs (previously featured) will also be available as matching self-tied bow ties. In total we will be adding about 50 new designs and colors over the next 3-4 weeks. Here is a link of what is currently in stock:

Thanks!

Hi Minervau,

Yes, most of these ties are actually four fold and made from 100% silk. All ties by Cantucci are from silk woven or printed in Como, Italy. I went there with my father last fall to pick out fabrics and we found close to 100 new designs. We are not marking them up as much as we should (considering the cost of the fabric), and these pieces now retail for $29.90 on our site.

 

Cheers,

 

Hendrik

That's me. The tie is from The Cordial Churchman. If you plan on using other people's images for a commercial venture, it would be wise to obtain their permission first.

We just got one of our most popular repp-striped tie collections in the new summer colors for 2013. These are just $9.90. Let me know what you think of these. From all comments, we will pick out one random winner for a free tie of choice (from this collection).
