Real Men Wear Lace

A man can never own too many ties. The problem is that there are far too many bad ties out there – either overwrought or boring and bland. Here is the perfect balance; playing the texture of cotton lace off against a backdrop of pure silk twill. Made by Contemporary British company Marwood, known for bringing fresh attitude to traditional craftsmanship, these ties demonstrate a mastery of subtle details. The navy lace tie and bow tie are sublime. Crafted in England.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
