Solid Color Bordeaux Rep Silk Tie - TAL286

Express your elegance through the sophisticated rigor and absolute exclusivity of the Talarico solid-colour 3-Fold Tie. Designed by Maurizio Talarico, this creation is a true collector’s piece: to ensure the highest level of prestige and uniqueness, each colour variation is produced in a strictly limited edition of just 3 pieces.

The character of this accessory lies in its prestigious jacquard silk with a “Reps” weave, defined by an exceptionally high density (116 picks per centimetre) and its iconic, finely raised ribbed texture. This distinctive weave gives the colour a vibrant structure, combined with a remarkable tactile richness and body. The result of 45 minutes of meticulous handcrafting, the precious outer silk envelops an inner core in pure wool, ensuring impeccable drape and a perfect fall. The masterpiece is sealed on the reverse with the iconic hand-stitched “X”, the unmistakable signature of the Maison’s artisanal excellence.

Style Tips

The “Reps” weave, with its distinctive ribbed texture, gives solid colours a strict and unmistakable sartorial presence:

• Business Authority: This is the perfect weave to communicate confidence and solidity. Ideal with structured tailored suits, it pairs beautifully with poplin or twill shirts, creating a highly refined contrast of textures.
• Everyday Elegance: Unlike smooth, glossy silk, the Reps weave has a more tactile and structured appearance, making it extremely easy to wear even in daytime formal settings, always ensuring a polished and professional look.
• The Ideal Knot: The ribbed texture and wool core provide exceptional grip. This tie is ideal for stable, full, sculptural knots such as the Half Windsor or the classic Four-in-Hand. Always tighten carefully to form the signature central dimple.

Care Instructions

To preserve the beauty of the silk ribs and the inner structure:

• Unknotting: Never remove the tie by pulling on the narrow blade or forcing the knot. Always untie it gently, reversing the steps used to form it.
• Resting: After use, allow the tie to rest loosely rolled on itself (starting from the narrow blade) or hung on a tie holder for at least 24 hours. This allows both the wool core and the silk to naturally relax and recover their shape.
• Cleaning & Ironing: Professional specialised dry cleaning only. Never press the tie flat with a household iron, as heat and pressure would destroy the distinctive ribbed Reps texture and the hand-finished rounded edges.
