About this video

The Gazette team presents a wool challis bow tie in navy with white polka dots, inspired by tea magnate Sir Thomas Lipton’s signature style. They explain the origins of the challis fabric, its practical benefits for travel, and why this classic pattern deserves a place in every man’s neckwear collection.

Key takeaways

• The Lipton bow tie pattern—navy with white polka dots—originates from Sir Thomas Lipton’s signature style and was traditionally made in silk

• The Gazette team recommends this bow tie as a classic wardrobe staple that pairs well with navy and grey suiting
