    A lifetime of ties, nearly all silk, because it knots neatly. Some jokes from my kids, my favourite gold with red teardrops Hugo Boss@Harrods, soon to be worn at a daughters wedding

      ANDY! Great collection! As a fellow "man of wealth and taste" (a Rolling Stones reference-not to be taken literally,) I am in awe of your ties. Brilliant! (as you Britishers might say.) You and I are of a kindred spirit. I enlarged your ties and am looking them over. Wonderful. Great, great post. Thank you. I'll get my collection together and post in a bit. (For the discerning aficionados--not the unwashed, dirty necked, open collared masses that slither and lurk hereabouts!)

      The teardrop is spectacular. Also the "orange tie with ovals" tie I posted is from a Gustav Klimt picture. I also have something identical in teal.

        😄 Looking forward to it.
        I found storing them tricky until someone bought me a ladies scarf hanger with multiple holes. Using that they all hang out together within a suit bag.

        It's really nice to occasionally dress up, go the whole 9 yards with cufflinks etc.

          I’ve always had a tie hanger.

          Thank you for your attention to this matter.

            With wedding looming and unable to fit into any of my suits, I took 'The Tie' above into Hugo Boss Regent Street, told them it was bought in 1992 at Harrods... caused some interest.

            Then bought an appropriate wedding-at-a-zoo-suit, which also goes with the tie

            Now the question is, will I look as cool 😎 as the man himself?

                I rather miss suits and ties.

                  I appreciate the chance to wear them 15-20 days a year.

                    I have a bunch of Talbot ties and Allen Edmonds shoes I’ll probably never wear again.

                      @Mik said in Neckties at the convention.:

                      Those Allen Edmonds shoes appear really nice.
                      I have a couple pairs of similar quality uk-handmade Church's. Both brogues, one light tan the other dark brown suede.
                      Ten years and they're just about worn in 🤣
                      This year they came out of the wardrobe and are by the front door to wear when I feel like it. Life's too short.
