Not sure why, the pic you posted way back when of your ties looked a lot like their aesthetic.Originally Posted by Manton
Marinella also uses a different lining than Drake, a bit thinner and less spongy. And the shape is cut differently. Marinella's shape is that Italian "bottle" shape that Nicky also does. Drake is cut more like a straight-sided triangle. All that may not be more expensive to produce, and it may not be worth the money, but there is a difference.Originally Posted by Manton
I like H&B ties. These Drakes are, to me, vomit inducing. I have a tender stomach, though.Originally Posted by iammatt
Most if not all of marinella's silks are made in England and many of them are designed by Drakes. Drakes makes quite a few staid foulard patterns but it is true that they are rarely as moribund as Marinella.Originally Posted by Film Noir Buff
yeah those last two ties are pretty zany. isnt the middle one the LL club tie?Originally Posted by Film Noir Buff
For the time being, a knit Marinella tie is like a SF fashion moment home run. The only thing that would make it cooler would be if it were Marinella-for-Rubinacci knit tie.Originally Posted by dopey
Is there really a SF Marinella thing, and when did it take off? Mine sit unworn in a box somewhere, and I'd hate to be late to the party.Originally Posted by DocHolliday
I think that among readily available brands, Nicky is hard to beat. If a man populated his closet with just Nicky ties, he would be doing very well. - BOriginally Posted by voxsartoria

While I would be honored to be called the medwards of anything, I will not have earned the moniker until I try to administer life-support to the forum by starting topics intended to draw enough people into a discussion to keep the lights from going out.Originally Posted by dopey
The ties are alright for a certain look the Italians like or for Americans who read a few books on how to be an igent and what to practice that look of "class" via restraint.Originally Posted by Film Noir Buff
