Patterns and styling tips
The fancy pattern
I’ve included in this section everything that doesn’t fit into the classic patterns: I wear them most of the time either with a very sober outfit (navy blue jacket, white shirt), or I play up the contrast with a very businesslike outfit with lots of stripes.
Halfway between a check pattern and a flower pattern, this tie can be worn simply as a brightly colored tie: I’d just avoid a charcoal gray suit, too formal for this type of pattern.
