You are bidding on an authentic light blue Bruno Piatteli tie with beautifully textured white diagonal stripes from my own collection.
About Me: I am a fashion journalist and editorialist both online for The New York Sartorialist (www.nysartorialist.com) and globally in various print publications.
I've been fortunate to pick up a lot of nice pieces over the years (and continue to); between more frequent travel and moving- its time to downsize my overgrown collection.
There are a number of fakes being sold everywhere, so beware. Most knock-offs are made from taking an original, sending it overseas where they take it apart and use cheap materials and labor to make inferior copies. If you know what to look for you can easily spot a fake- even a "good" one. Fortunately, my items were either bought from the manufacturer or where I know the source.
Width & Length: Historically, tie widths have moved between the extremes of extra wide to extra narrow. In a classic sense, widths that range from 3 1/8 to 3 7/8 have always remained fashionable without becoming fashion victims like fat or narrow ties have. Ideally, the tie width will be the same (or close) to the jacket's lapel width. Lengths vary and have become longer in recent years. As men are wearing pants more on their hips instead of their natural waist, longer ties have been necessary to reach the appropriate tied length ending at the belt level.

RETURN POLICY: I've done my best to describe items as accurately as possible. If by chance I missed something, please understand it wasn't intentional. In the rare event this may occur, please let me know.
Please contact me before leaving feedback. I am more than happy to accept a return if the tie arrives - and is for some reason not "as described". I would prefer a return and refund than have a buyer purchase an item they're dissapointed in.
