12 Ties for Menswear Experts - How Many Do YOU Own?

About this video

The Gazette team presents 12 sophisticated neckties for the discerning gentleman, organized into three categories: ties distinguished by unique fabrics and textures (knit, silk brocade, cashmere), ties in bold and underutilized colors (ivory, orange, yellow, purple, pink), and patterned ties (large-scale patterns, floral, figurative designs, and affiliation ties). The team emphasizes that while these ties are not essential, they demonstrate refined taste and personal expression beyond basic wardrobe staples.

Key takeaways

• The Gazette team argues that unique fabrics and textures—such as knit, cashmere, and silk brocade—allow for distinction without relying solely on bold colors or patterns
• The Gazette team recommends bold and overlooked colors like orange, yellow, and pink as surprisingly versatile options that pair well with classic menswear colors when executed with quality materials and thoughtful composition
• The Gazette team suggests that patterned ties work best with classic designs (polka dots, houndstooth, geometric shapes) and subdued color palettes to maintain sophistication, and advises reserving novelty ties with graphic designs primarily for casual or themed occasions
