Carbon fiber ties with Swarovski crystals for men and women

Ties have always been an important part of the gentleman's wardrobe. The humble piece of cloth has not changed much in terms of design or materials since its invention. Until now. A light weight, ready to wear tie made of lacquered carbon fiber is now becoming more and more popular in the fashion industry.

Created by designer Alberto Del Biondi, the ties have versions for males and females. The carbon fiber or carbon silk as the designers call them resembles the texture of satin silk and tweed. Beyonce is expected to wear one of these ‘carbon ties’ on her next tour.
