Seven Fold Ties






Seven fold ties set themselves apart from the everyday work tie with their superior construction. Every section is hand stitched with exquisite detail and constructed entirely out of the same silk fabric front to back. This untipped and unlined necktie carries with it the prestige of being finely crafted in a traditional style almost all but forgotten. The time needed to roll the edges and perfect the asymmetrical folds has become uneconomical for most tie makers. And as a result, people today don't know that there is a difference between neckties nor have they heard of a seven fold tie.


seven fold ties were originally hand crafted and have a rich history of neckwear with similar mens accessories such as the cravat scarves and even clip on ties. Well dressed peopled in pinstriped suits dont usually wear 7 fold ties when dining with other gentlemen while outdoors among women who wear matching evening gowns. If the tie silk pattern and the dress shirt are both paisley or striped, they not look good with a big four in hand knot that wrinkles the silk. Some gentlemen do not know how to tie a tie or sew their own seven fold ties so they buy a necktie from the store instead of constructing their own from a sewing pattern. Sewing patterns requires they buy silk and cut and sew it themselves with a needle and cotton thread before they know how to make a tie. A six fold tie is sometimes confused with a seven fold tie. Both seven fold and six fold ties should not hang below the belt buckle when knotted. Some ties are made in italy or with british silk which can be chosen by the tailor or seamstress. Other mens accessories such as wrist watches and cufflinks or tie bars can go with the tie pattern that you choose. These bespoke neckties are sewn like custom suits that fit perfectly.
