Patterns and styling tips
The polka dot pattern
One of our most wearable patterns: look carefully at the size of the polka dots, their spacing and the contrast with the background color. This is what will determine whether or not a tie is easy to wear.
About the brand
Burberry
Burberry’s history dates back to 1856, when founder Thomas Burberry opened a menswear store in England. The brand grew rapidly and became famous for its tartan trench coats, scarves and ties.
Tartan is a traditional Scottish pattern, and Burberry has incorporated this tradition into its tie design from the brand’s earliest years. Tartan ties have become a Burberry signature, and the brand has developed a wide variety of tartans, including the famous “Nova Check”, which has become emblematic of the brand.
Animal motifs, such as deer, dog and horse designs, are also a common feature of Burberry ties. These motifs are often associated with the British lifestyle, which is closely linked to hunting and riding. Burberry has incorporated these patterns into its tie design to celebrate this tradition and to create ties that reflect the British lifestyle.
Burberry is also known for its iconic prints, such as the “Haymarket” pattern and the “House Check” motif, which were introduced in the 1920s and are still popular today. These patterns are often used as lining for Burberry ties, adding an extra touch of sophistication and luxury.
