Tie Me Up…Hard
As anyone who has strayed out to the more fashionable of nightlife hotspots in recent months will notice, the bow tie has seen a renaissance amongst the hip, gay and fashion-conscious. There’s no simpler way to add a dint of quirk or dash of fop to your look, all while maintaining an aura of formal sophistication. It’s a trend in full flower that has gone from fabric to leather to…..ceramic?
“The Papillon” by Cor Sine Labe Doli is unlike any bow tie you’ve ever seen. Crafted by artisans in the Italian town of Marostica, the bowtie is made, not of fabric, but of ceramic. The idea sounds absurd, but the effect is shockingly elegant. Available in panoply of colors and patterns - some are even finished in a metallic sheen - Cor Sine Labe Doli transforms the humble bow tie into a true luxury item. Though the Papillon is at the heart of their business, Cor Sine Labe Doli produces an impressive line of clothing and accessories, not all of which are made of clay. But their ceramic bow tie is a must-have; you’ll never feel guilty about wearing a clip-on again.
