This blog features Irish designers and Irish design quite frequently as I think it is important to celebrate, promote and encourage home grown talent. So after my trip to London to the Irish embassy last year to talk Irish design, I decided - this would be something I was really going to commit to. Over the years we have had some really famous Irish talent make massive waves in international fashion. It's encouraging to see JW Anderson featured for his knitwear and doing collaborations with Topshop, its downright brilliant to see Simone Rocha at London Fashion Week (sickened I couldn't make my invite to her first show!!) and its a great thing all together to see Brown Thomas featuring Irish design alongside the big names.
Anyway, back to bow ties....
Menwear has never really interested me. I find it so dull as men don't really go in for the same things that interest me about womenswear - namely bright colors, dresses and interesting tights. Some do, some don't. The majority of it is grey, earthy colors. I find this is changing as men are becoming more and more fashion involved and there are some brands that are really changing how this is done. Rory Hutton's bow ties are part of this change. Quirky, colorful and featuring interesting prints brings a splash of color to the most grey of shirts. I was impressed via the website to learn how many different styles there are and also, via a google search, how many people love them.
I've chosen a few of my favorites:
