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.
A very assertive coat-of-arms pattern that I’d wear with light-colored jackets with faded patterns, like this Prince of Wales model, to avoid a busy look.
