Lilac Gradient Silk Tie with Aurora Borealis Crystals

Product Description

This tie is woven in a fine basket weave texture, with small white dashes set in neat diagonal rows across a purple ground. The color shifts gradually along its length. It starts as a deep plum near the knot, lightens to a soft lilac through the middle, and returns to a rich magenta-violet at the tip. Iridescent aurora borealis crystals are scattered across the paler middle section, where they throw small flashes of pink, blue and gold against the lilac. The texture has real depth up close, and the shading reads clean and modern from across the room.

Fashion Guide

Purple has a long association with refinement, and the gradient here keeps it from feeling heavy. It’s a good choice for spring weddings, cocktail hours, award dinners and celebrations where you want some color without shouting. Charcoal, mid-grey and navy suits all suit it well. A white or very pale lavender shirt keeps the look harmonious. For a softer daytime option, try it with a light grey suit.

Care Guide

• Dry clean only, and let your cleaner know about the crystal embellishments
• Store rolled or hung flat so the silk and settings stay in shape
• Keep perfume, cologne and lotion away from the silk and crystals
• If pressing is needed, iron on low heat on the reverse side with a cloth between

Styling Notes

Try it with a charcoal suit, a crisp white shirt and a pocket square in silver or soft lilac. Black cap-toe oxfords keep the outfit sharp and let the tie’s shading carry the color.
