The “Grisaglia” Tie
By definition, the tie for a classic wedding

For a formal city daytime wedding, adhering to the rules of elegance, we recommend wearing the tie known as “grisaglia.” This distinctive accessory, renowned for its classic beauty, has its roots in the French term "grisaille," evoking the richness of gray tones and the delicate interplay of black and white in its fabric. It pairs perfectly with a dark gray or navy blue tailored suit, exemplifying timeless elegance. Whether worn by the groom, the fathers of the couple, or the best men, its substantial texture and shimmering effect provide support to the knot, ensuring perfection throughout the day. A synonym for timeless style.
