Vintage 40s Wide Silk Necktie Brown Micro Floral Print Pinstripes Wilcrest Wilson VFG
!940s bellywarmer ties are typically boldy graphic. This one is a bit more sedate - picture a banker not a mobster! The fabric is silk and hand dyed. The background jacquard is a rich shade of dark brown, woven in a stylized cloud pattern. The print uses a combination of dark green & white pinstriping to set off a slightly diagonal rectangle that frames a series of floral shrubs, also in green & white, against soft yellow.

CONDITION: No stains, holes, tears or other issues noted - not even signs of wear.
I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
