The Tie: A Global History

Un traje no está completo hasta que nos atamos la corbata. Lisas, monocromas, de colores, a rayas o estampadas. Las modas se anudan en nuestros cuellos y definen a quienes las llevan. El Landesmuseum de Zúrich ha presentado ‘The tie: men fashion power’, una retrospectiva que muestra la evolución de las corbatas desde el siglo XVII hasta nuestros días. La elegancia, la posición social y el estilo que otorga esta prenda entran en debate en ‘The Tie: A Global History’, el catálogo de la propia exposición que intenta mostrar de una manera transversal lo que hay detrás del atributo masculino más icónico. Un merecido homenaje al desencadenante de la elegancia masculina contemporánea.

A suit is not complete until we knot our tie. Plain, monochrome, colored, striped or printed. The fashion trends are knotted in our necks and define the people who are wearing them. The Landesmuseum of Zurich has presented “The tie: men fashion power”, a flashback that shows the evolution of ties from the seventeenth century until our days. The elegance, the social status and the style that gives this piece enter into debate in “The Tie: A Global History”, the catalogue of the exhibition itself that tries to show transversally what there is behind of the most iconic masculine attribute. A well-deserved tribute for the trigger of the contemporary masculine elegance.
