Dry January? Nah, How About Tie February?

February 20, 2025

1 minute read

I decided to make February a month where I wear ties everyday*. After seeing how great every guy at Pitti looks in full-blown coat and tie, I figured why not. It won’t be too out of place in my workplace. This will be a way to rediscover the few dozen ties I own, get creative with how I wear them, and look smashing while doing so.

*What I’m specifically committing to is wearing a tie every day during the workweek, Monday-Friday. I have probably worn a tie on a weekday once in the past year.

Who’s with me?!

H.N. White London

Shibumi Firenze
