Incredible Vintage Leonard Paris Fashion Silk Neck Tie Collection

Description: This amazing collection of 10 ties was built over many years by a French businessman who purchased these in Paris. These are top quality handmade ties in Italy designed by Leonard of Paris. All are in excellent condition. Several ties do not have a design / dessin number which I believe means they are even older before they started including the print design number on each tie. This collectors dream also includes an amazing Christian Dior neck tie travel case portfolio in black leather. This item is very rare and extremely difficult to value. In addition is an original Leonard Paris neck tie box. Their story began in 1958, when Jacques Leonard invited a young Daniel Tribouillard to helm the new brand. Mr Tribouillard would later grow to become one of the most influential haute couture designers of his generation. Within 2 years of its founding, Mr Tribouillard launched a revolutionary new process for printing English weaves: a print that was extremely fashionable at the time but said to be “unprintable”. This earned the Leonard brand wide admiration, and together with the use of Tribouillard’s much-loved floral prints, the Leonard brand was brought to the world. Exquisite silk and floral-prints combine to form Leonard’s DNA and dresses, scarves and neckties form the brand’s core products over the past 6 decades. Given the brand’s expertise in silk accessories, it made a natural progression into men’s silk ties and pocket squares. The brand transposed its design ingenuity and intricate craftsmanship into making silk accessories for men, and like its womenswear, does not shy away from the use of bold colours and eclectic prints. The Leonard tie is simultaneously a “collector’s” tie. The brand’s philosophy is that each design should be truly unique and sees through this commitment by tastefully printing a unique series number at the back of the tie. Much like a Patek, a gentleman familiar with this haute couture designer would identify a Leonard design by its series number.
