LAURA ASHLEY x TIE BAR’S ENGLISH GARDEN COLLECTION DEBUTS JUNE 21ST 

 Neckwear brand and retailer Tie Bar has announced an exclusive collaboration with fashion and home furnishings brand Laura Ashley. The Laura Ashley x Tie Bar debut collection will be available exclusively online and in the Tie Bar’s Chicago flagship store starting June 21st.  

“It’s been truly a pleasure collaborating on this collection with such an iconic brand. Bringing the synonymous beauty and design aesthetic of Laura Ashley to life, through the lens of our neckwear, equals the new must-have accessories for the season in our eyes,” says Michelle Kohanzo, president of Tie Bar. 

“We are delighted about our exclusive collaboration with Tie Bar. The collection’s modern interpretation of Laura Ashley’s love of florals, coupled with Tie Bar’s craftsmanship and fashion-forward neckwear, will captivate our customers and introduce Ashley’s iconic prints to a new trend-setting audience,” said Carolyn D’Angelo, senior managing director, Brand Operations, Gordon Brothers & president, Laura Ashley Global. 

The Laura Ashley x Tie Bar English Garden Collection intertwines Laura Ashley’s iconic patterns with Tie Bar’s distinguished craftsmanship across over 50 different styles, including a mix of classic ties and bow ties, large, oversized bows, and pocket squares. Suspenders and dress shirts will be added later. 

Drawing inspiration from a range of lush botanical gardens and the romantic fantasy of summer, the collection captures the essence of natural beauty with a touch of refined elegance. The resulting collection (retailing between $14 – $65 each) features an array of painted florals brought to life alongside ruffled edge borders, a unique use of scale, a bold pattern mix, and an assortment of mosaic geometric prints.
