Patterns and styling tips
The medallion motif
The medallion pattern can be floral or geometric, or even whimsical: it’s usually a concentric formation of different motifs repeated on the tie.
The advantage is that the pattern is very elaborate, and will often be easy to wear in a sartorial outfit, or even in a business outfit if the colors are sober.
This medallion motif is surprisingly restrained, thanks to the close-knit color tones from which it is drawn. Just avoid light-medium blue shirts, which will contrast too little.
