Necktie
This tie was made in the prime of Jacques Fath's career. Although Fath was primarily known for the sexy hourglass shape of his women's wear designs, he also produced accessories and items to compliment the lifestyles of both sexes. The designs on this tie and the fringed straight ends are characteristic of Fath's aesthetic.
