Mixing silk textures doesn't bother me. But then, neither do pocket flaps.
If I ever bespeak a DJ I will get a tie made from the lapel silk, just because it seems a shame to pass up the opportunity.

Amongst the sartorial sins one sees with black tie, this one is definitely venial, rather than mortal.
Having a tie made from the exact same material as your lapels seems a bit mitchy-matchy to me.
Relax...if you're wearing your dinner jacket it's a party.
Have a drink. Spill something on your patent leather shoes and get over it.
