Ties really do make the man. No other product like neckties bears such a symbolic power and can change the way people look at you. The best ties are made in Italy, mainly in a city north of Milan, called Como. These producers are still strongly influenced by a 3 century long tradition of top quality and perfection in silk products. Behavioral scientists tell us that the "first impression" is a strong one. Ties are immediately noticed and help your counterpart making an evaluation about you. If you wear an Italian designer tie it will be noticed. Classic and solid color neckties are the best for a first time meeting and always make you perceive as a reliable person. In this case we would recommend Zegna, Armani, Ferragamo, Burberry, Krizia, Gucci, Raffaello Excellence and others. Ties that have more character are the ones by Versace, Cavalli and Fornasetti and can be worn in less formal occasions, such as everyday work in the office.
Ties & Trends. In 2004/2005 you will see bright colors like orange (melon, coral and peach), celery, and white, in patterns of stripes, grids, geometrics, and plaids. And also Polka dots, multi-stripes, florals, and candy colored patterns. Black and White will still be there and are always a good choice, when buying ties, while stripes are still the latest trend.
As usual, when selecting ties, fashion and trends are much less important than your personal taste, so just choose the neckties you feel more comfortable with and that better suit your personality.
