Make a Statement with a Crazy Diamond Jacquard Tie
Some patterned ties fail because the design collapses at the knot or overwhelms the outfit. Fort Belvedere crazy diamond jacquard ties are designed to avoid those pitfalls. The diamond motifs are woven directly into the silk using jacquard techniques, ensuring crisp definition, consistent spacing, and patterns that remain legible even...
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What exactly is a "Crazy Diamond" jacquard tie?
It is a tie featuring an intricate, offset diamond motif that is woven—not printed—into the silk using a jacquard loom. The "crazy" refers to the dynamic, non-linear layout of the diamonds, which creates a more interesting and energetic look than a standard, static grid pattern.
-
How does a jacquard tie differ from a printed silk tie?
A printed tie has the design "stamped" onto the surface of the silk. In a diamond jacquard tie, the pattern is part of the fabric's structure. This results in a richer texture, a better "hand" (the way the tie feels), and a knot that holds its shape much better throughout the day.
-
What shirt patterns work best with this tie?
Because the Crazy Diamond tie is a complex geometric pattern, it is most easily paired with a solid dress shirt. If you want to wear a patterned shirt, ensure the scale is different—for example, pair the medium-scale diamonds with a very fine micro-stripe or a very large check to avoid a visual clash.
-
Do these ties stay aligned when they are knotted?
Yes. One of the hallmarks of Fort Belvedere quality is the way we cut our silk on a true bias. This ensures that the jacquard pattern doesn't twist or pull to one side, keeping the diamonds looking intentional and orderly regardless of how you tie them.
