Floral ties are what are known as ‘foulard’ ties. Yes. A very fancy French name, but don’t worry, you don’t need to remember that! These ties offer a repeating symmetrical pattern. There flowers will be evenly spaced. There is an ever so slightly different floral tie which does not come under the foulard banner, but we will talk about that shortly.
What Tie to Buy?
One of the major benefits of floral ties is that they work for just about every situation. You will need to choose an ever so slightly different pattern on the tie depending on when and where you are wearing it, but whether you are looking for a floral tie for business or casual situations, we are positive that you can find the tie that is right for you:
In our opinion, it is foulard ties which should dominate your tie collection, mainly because they are so versatile. They also look a lot better than single-color ties.
Paisley Ties
As we mentioned previously, there is one other tie style which also offers floral patterns. These are paisley ties. This pattern originates in the middle east. These ties have curved, repeating design which has small floral patterns between them. They are very intricately designed. They do not work that well for more formal occasions, but if you are looking for a casual tie that is a little bit different from the norm, then you may want to consider going down the paisley tie route. For most situations, we recommend a darker background tie with lighter paisley patterns, just so you do not have a clash of colors with your outfit.
