Higher than ever before






Pre Edit Tie
Incase i haven't said so before, the dutti tie is my favourite out of all the Tennant ties. I know it consists of simple stripes but there's something about it that makes it more appealing and exiting to me than even the Lacroix tie. Perhaps because it's so bold? Anyway, since this tie is near impossible to find on eBay, i first decided to use the simple design on a custom tie website. A few months later i found the Paul Smith striped tie that looked similar to the Dutti, but i was never fully satisfied with it as the stripes weren't wide enough and the space in between them was too narrow. So recently i thought of a new idea, I bought a tie with all light blue stripes and used a navy blue fabric pen to colour in every other stripe. And what can i say? I think this tie is better than ever before, and i've reached the highest point with this tie. The only one better would be an original Dutti! Enough chit chat, here are the results...
