Dapper Gentlemen Gathered in Florence, Italy

Ten Styles, Ten 'Tied-Up' Looks

Held from January 8-11, 2013, in Florence, Italy, was 'Pitti Uomo,' an exhibition dedicated to menswear. As you know, it's an event where stylish men from around the world gather. This time, we focus on styles with ties.—In other words, 'tied-up' looks. Whether it's a suit, blouson, or sweater, we hope you'll take inspiration from their ensembles, complete with perfectly matched ties.

Is Your Tie Matched?
What sets Pitti Uomo apart from the Paris and Milan Collections is its exclusive focus on menswear. Consequently, the proportion of attendees wearing ties among buyers, press, and other fashion professionals from around the globe naturally increases. From classic silk ties, the standard companion to a suit, to casual knit ties. Observe how they are matched with their outfits.

The Importance of Neckwear in Casual Styling
While Pitti Uomo is a mecca for menswear, in line with the global trend towards casualization, there seems to be an increasing number of men opting for relaxed, 'untied' looks without neckties each year. However, the rate of wearing 'neckwear' such as mufflers and scarves remains exceptionally high. In a sense, this can be interpreted as a tied-up style achieved through items other than ties. Please pay close attention to their elegant ways of wrapping!
