Which tie goes with your suit?
Dress so the sum is greater than the parts. No single piece should pull more attention than the rest, which is why the tie is chosen last, once everything else is settled.
Tell us what you are wearing. We will show you the tie that finishes it, on the whole outfit, and explain why it works.
Which tie works with which suit
Burgundy Grenadine
The most useful tie in the drawer. It sits against navy and charcoal with no effort, and warms a grey suit that would otherwise look cold.
Wear it with:Navy, Charcoal, Grey .
Navy Grenadine
Navy on grey is the most understated combination there is. Against charcoal it holds its own without the flatness of black.
Wear it with:Grey, Charcoal .
Forest Green Grenadine
Green belongs with brown; the two share a warmth that looks intentional rather than accidental. Against navy it is the least expected of the safe choices.
Wear it with:Brown, Navy, Grey .
Charcoal Grenadine
What to reach for when black would be too severe. It gives a black suit somewhere to go that is not a funeral.
Wear it with:Black, Navy .
Brown Grenadine
Brown against navy is the pairing most men have not tried. The warmth breaks up the blue without introducing a second idea.
Wear it with:Navy, Grey .
Black Grenadine
Narrow in use and worth owning for exactly that reason. Keep it for charcoal and black, and let the weave keep it from looking flat.
Wear it with:Charcoal, Black .
Purple Grenadine
Purple is the one most men skip and the one that rewards them. Against grey it looks considered rather than bold, because the two sit at a similar depth.
Wear it with:Grey, Charcoal, Navy .
Burnt Orange Grenadine
Burnt orange belongs with brown, where the two share a warmth. Against navy it is the sharpest contrast in the drawer that still behaves itself.
Wear it with:Brown, Navy, Grey .
Honey Brown Grossa Grenadine
A softer earth tone than the brown, and easier under a lighter suit. The grossa weave is more open, so you see texture before colour.
Wear it with:Brown, Navy, Grey .
Champagne Grenadine
A warm golden tan rather than the pale colour the name suggests. It lifts a dark suit without introducing a second colour, which makes it the wedding answer for men who do not want to wear silver.
Wear it with:Navy, Charcoal, Grey .
Midnight Blue Grossa Grenadine
Darker than navy and warmer than black, which is why it looks better than black under evening light. Keep it away from a navy suit; at that depth the two fight.
Wear it with:Black, Charcoal, Grey .
No single element should attract more attention than the others.
