Perfect for a wedding, boardroom meeting or a refined evening out, this vintage Hermès burgundy silk tie with its multicolour equestrian motif adds discreet character to a tailored suit. Made in France, it elevates formal and smart-casual looks with timeless polish.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the measurements of this tie and how does the width wear?
A: It measures approximately 147 cm in length and 7 cm at the widest point. The 7 cm blade gives a modern, slimmer profile that pairs best with narrow to medium lapels for balanced proportions.
Q: What is the fabric and where was it made?
A: Pure silk, made in France. This vintage Hermès piece features a burgundy ground with a multicolour equestrian-inspired motif.
Q: How should I care for a Hermès silk tie?
A: Avoid contact with rain, water, perfumes, and cosmetics. If needed, entrust it to a professional dry cleaner familiar with luxury silk. Do not machine-wash or tumble dry.
Q: Can I remove creases or wrinkles at home?
A: After wearing, hang the tie to let creases relax naturally. For stubborn wrinkles, use a handheld steamer at a short distance, or press on the reverse with low heat using a clean pressing cloth. Avoid direct, high heat on the silk.
Q: How should I store it between wears?
A: Either hang the tie on a smooth rack to let the fabric drape, or loosely roll it and place it in a drawer. Store it untied and away from direct sunlight to preserve colour and shape.
Q: Which tie knots suit a 7 cm Hermès tie?
A: Slimmer blades look refined with a four-in-hand for a neat, asymmetric knot; a half-Windsor also works if you prefer a slightly fuller look. Choose a knot that complements your collar spread and lapel width.
Q: Is this item authentic and how do you verify it?
A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes multi-point authentication by our in-house experts. Typical Hermès hallmarks include hand-sewn construction with a slip stitch, a woven Hermès-Paris keeper label, fine silk twill or jacquard with crisp printing/weave, and a care label noting composition and made-in-France origin.
Q: What is included with this item?
A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. If a branded box, tag, or other extras are not listed there, they are not included.
Q: Will the length work for my height?
A: The standard 147 cm length suits most wearers. Those around 190 cm tall or with larger builds may prefer an extra-long tie to achieve the tip-at-beltline finish, depending on knot choice and torso length.
