1999 Collection Silk Twill Tie Floral Pattern, Red & White JD023

A journey back to the origins of a sartorial legend. In September 1999, Maurizio Talarico unveiled his very first tie collection, defining the codes of an elegance that would go on to accompany the highest institutional figures. Today, to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Maison’s foundation, we reopen our historic archives with the 1999 Collection: an exclusive reissue of the most iconic patterns from that era.

In keeping with the tradition of those years, this tie is crafted from exquisite heavy silk (featuring jacquard weaves or archival prints), capable of delivering the rich texture and elegant drape that define its unmistakable heritage charm. Each piece is enhanced with an exclusive commemorative label and is the result of 45 minutes of expert hand-stitching in Italy. An authentic piece of sartorial history to wear and collect.

Style Tips

The use of heavy silk gives this collection a strong and distinctive character, ideal for those who appreciate classic-inspired power dressing:

• Heritage Charm: Whichever variant you choose (from regimental stripes to geometric motifs) the richness and structure of this tie call for equally tailored garments, such as worsted wool suits, pinstripes, or flannel ensembles.
• The Sculptural Knot: The substantial weight of 1990s-inspired heavy silk creates a rich, voluminous knot. We recommend a classic Four-in-Hand knot, tightened carefully to form the signature central dimple, while avoiding double knots that would appear excessively bulky.
• Collector’s Detail: The commemorative label transforms this tie into a true connoisseur’s piece, making it an exceptional choice both for personal wear and as a prestigious gift.

Care Instructions

• How to Untie: At the end of the day, never pull the narrow blade through the knot. Always untie the tie gently by reversing the steps used when tying it.
• Resting the Tie: Let it rest loosely rolled or hanging for at least 24 hours. This allows the fibres of the heavy silk to naturally relax and recover their original structure.
• Cleaning & Ironing: Strictly professional dry cleaning only. Never flatten the tie with a household iron: excessive heat and pressure would damage the handcrafted edges and the three-dimensional texture of the fabric.
