Wedding Bow Ties - Book Your Appointment - +61413140994

 The lead up to a wedding is a wonderful period (for most) where friends get together to organise dinners and rehearsals and so on. But one of the experiences that is also very enjoyable is both a trip to the tailor to collect your suits and a trip to Le Noeud Papillon's Studio to choose your bow tie and cummerbunds, your pocket squares and lapel flowers. It is always fun when the wedding party comes through, friends try on different shapes of bow ties, are introduced to our scents and of course we have so much more to show our visitors other than just wedding accessories. In the end many walk out wearing our swim shorts or sporting our silk eye shades.

Constantine - The Latest Addition To Our Family Of Black Tie Bow Ties

Constantine - The Latest Addition To Our Family Of Black Tie Bow Ties

Admittedly I was of the opinion that my grandfather, or papu as we say, was wearing a pre-tied bow tie in this family portrait with his  immediate family. But, I was bent on trying to make the same bow tie in a self-tying bow tie and I have come exceptionally close. This is a wonderful new addition to the family, it is named Constantine after my grandfather Con Atgemis. I am going to sport it at my next black tie function. We have sold through the first batch but if you would like to secure yourself one on the next batch just text +61413140994

What Is New At Le Noeud Papillon?

What Is New At Le Noeud Papillon?

Hello and how are you?

Today I thought I would write about what we have been up to. For the most part it’s just been black tie and weddings with the slow and more considered development of silks for weaving.

Black Tie Is Back - We Are On The Home Straight Now

Black Tie Is Back - We Are On The Home Straight Now

For a long time now the only magazine I have thought of reading regarding menswear is The Rake. GQ and the like just publish rubbish. I can't give it more than 2 minutes of my time. The Rake of course was perhaps a little too self serving in recent years, the problem being that they were trying to adopt the Mr. Porter model of using content to sell product and then of course you have that naturally occurring thing where eventually, like this post in fact to some degree, it just so happens that what and who they anoint in menswear happens to fit in precisely with what they are selling. No biggie, it is to be expected, but sadly the whole world wants to vertically integrate these days.

How To Apply Perfumes And Other Scents

How To Apply Perfumes And Other Scents

 How To Apply Perfumes And Scents

To begin with, I would like to acknowledge Ethan Archer, a hobbyist perfumer, who stopped past the Studio early this week to exchange ideas about perfume and he was seeking some of the materials I use in perfume, having given him a sample of my white ambergris some weeks ago. I began reading his blog thereafter and it is a good read. You can click through here - https://ethanarcher.com/

One of the articles I read was on how to apply perfume and I thought I would add my own two cents worth, though his article is pretty comprehensive.

The Post Pandemic Black Tie Suit

 out of lockdown? What will it all look like? Articles appear on magazines like The Economist announcing the end of commercial real estate and the downfall of the modern workplace and city office. There are reports that workers refuse to go back into the workplace…

New Bow Ties Are Live

New Bow Ties Are Live

Firstly, allow me to apologise to you. I noticed all our new garza grossa and fina neck ties said they were made in Australia on the website. This is not correct. They are made in Italy. When we make in Australia you should see on the rear blade of the neck tie tipping a small map of Australia in gold.

You Didn't Know We Design Our Own Silks?

You Didn't Know We Design Our Own Silks?

It struck me as odd but acceptable that one of most loyal customers for years was surprised when he saw me sketching a silk one day. I told him that I was designing a new silk and he said "you design your own silks?" .

Admittedly he was a fan of our Japanese yuzen bow ties but I had never considered that any of customers hadn't worked out that we design our own silks from scratch.
