I just searched the Paul Smith site looking for ties that remind
me of my father.
Clearly they are not as adventurous as they were in the 1970's.
A brand lives on beyond its designers.
Bob might have worn this tie.
Now that Liberty of London is at Target I doubt he would still wear their line.
I loved his Liberty of London ties. There was a tie rack on the back of the walk-in closet door in Bob and Linda's bedroom. After Bob died Linda gave away his clothes and shoes, but not his ties - not for a very long time. I used to go into the closet and run my fingers through them. Then one day they were gone, but I had already taken the motorcycle tie. I will find it. I still have it, packed away, so that I will never forget. I will always have my father's tie.
I wonder where my email went?
