Can anyone help me remember who made this men's necktie? (Original post was by "stars")

"Miss Livvy" <Xeveryidiwantistak...@yahoo.com>
A while back we had a thread started by "stars" asking about ties. She
posted a link to a tie that Jamie and I both loved. Here's a link to the
original thread.

The problem is that the link to the tie is now expired. It leads to the SFO
web site. Of course, since it's a year old, they probably no longer have
that tie.
Here's a snip from the old post showing which link I'm referring to.
Not sure how I feel about the colors of this one – would really need to
see
it against shirt/suit jacket, but I like the pattern.

I love this one!
I am just trying to remember who was the designer so I can look for ties
like that. Might have been Zegna, but not sure.
Thanks for any help!

I know I used to keep a lot of the pics from links posted but most of them
are gone now since my last rebuild. Hopefully someone in here has a great
memory or a better backup system than I do. Or, with any luck, Star might
surface with the big news that the tie has been purchased and has all the
info you need...
This could be one of those five year missions ;–)

Miss Livvy,
I just cannot remember. My first thought is that it WAS a Zegna but I also
seem to remember that stars threw in a couple of others as well. I went to
the SFA site and was still impressed more with Zegna than any others,
so.....
Sorry!

Thanks so much you guys for trying. I want to get a really special tie as a
gift. That one I remembered really fit the bill. Hopefully I can find
something just as beautiful.

Zegna comes out with new ties every season and each one is more
beautiful than the previous ones. There is something about the quality
of the colors and silk that makes them stand out IMO above many others.
I supplement the $$$ of the Zegnas with ties from the man who measures
my husband's suits. He must have them specially made for the store and
the cost is about $50 less. Since you are in southern CA my suggestion
is just go to the Zegna store or NM in Beverly Hills. They are both
within walking distance from each other. Peruse the ties and that
special one will stand out.

Poop I didn't see this before I went to SFO and got one already. I didn't
know about the Zegna store. I found one I liked but now I wish I'd tried the
Zegna store. Maybe there was something better. Oh well. It's too late since
I have to mail this gift right away. Thanks A.

Don't feel too bad. I usually like the ties better in the dept. stores
than in the Z store. Perhaps it's the way they're displayed. Also Z
makes some just for the dept. stores.

Oh good. It seemed like they had about 100 different Zegna ties to choose
from. Some were in the same pattern only different colors. BTW, It was Saks,
not SFO, my screw up but I guess you figured that out. I hope he likes it!
