The Milanese, Vintage Tie, c. 1990

The Rampley Vintage Collection is made from archive silks recovered from decades of Italian textile production. The fabrics span 1962 to 1990, each one a time capsule to a different era of weaving. Each tie is handmade by our expert tie makers. This Midnight Navy, Pale Blue and White Foulard Geometric Vintage Silk Tie is handmade in Italy using archive woven silk, the fabric dating from 1990. Archive 100% Silk c. 1990 150cm in Length 8cm Blade 3 Folds Self-Tipped Handmade in Italy ABOUT THE TIE The midnight navy ground carries a two-motif foulard pattern alternating between a pale blue diamond starburst and a smaller white outlined square, a clean, geometric arrangement that draws on the foulard tradition while giving it a distinctly Milanese precision. The repeat is generous enough to read clearly, the palette cool and considered. It has the ease of a classic repeat with the structural confidence of a tie made at the height of Italian tailoring's influence. Each tie in The Vintage Collection is handmade in Italy, cut to our current silhouette. The construction and finish are identical to everything else we make. The difference is the cloth. HOW TO STYLE THIS TIE The foulard is one of the most enduring patterns in neckwear, and this version earns its place in the tradition by doing it with more geometry and precision than most. The cool navy and pale blue combination makes it one of the most versatile ties in the collection. If you wear one tie for every occasion, this is a strong argument for it.
