I believe that being eclectic defines those who derive their ideas, style and taste from a broad and diverse range of sources and experiences. And that’s my approach to fashion. Just like the ancient Greek philosophers’ practice of eclecticism meant they selected from existing philosophical beliefs those doctrines that seemed most reasonable to them, I don’t purport to dictate trends in fashion, but merely to foster the ongoing evolution of what it means to be well-dressed in a society where dressing well is in a constant state of flux. And perhaps equally as important, providing the means for those who wish to divert from the customs de-jour by providing timeless goods of excellent craftsmanship, appeal and value.
 
My Diagonios Bow Tie perhaps my most quintessentially understated design, but one that, perhaps, leaves most to the imagination. Slender, texturized diagonal stripes in shades of dark sapphire and cornflower blues with accents of buttercream and sage create a palette of calm intensity whose spectrum of wearability is as broad as it is diverse.
 
Diagonios is available in 5cm bat wing bow tie and 6cm thistle bow tie (pictured). Handmade in England from 100% British-milled silk.
