Feature – Focus on Ties
"Besides being useful against colds,
stiff necks and tooth aches, a necktie enables one to know more about the person
who is wearing it", said Emil De L'Empese in 1818. Neckties have been around
through all the ages - starting off as a kerchief, and gradually becoming an
integral part of what a man wears. Even in western times, men had the bolo
tie. The 'cravat' began in Croatia - it is said that a soldier going off
to war tied a colorful scarf from his beloved. Ties were made in America
starting in the twentieth century - before that, they were imported from Europe.
With the advent of 'casual business
attire' in the 1990's, ties seemed to be replaced by sportshirts. We
appear to be coming back to ties now - with a 'Dressed to the Nines' attitude.
After all, first impressions count! So let us help you make that good
impression - cleaning ties is one of our specialties!
In fact, just bring in this
newsletter with your ties, and receive $1.00 off the price of cleaning the tie.
Offer good for the month of January, 2007.
Ask the Experts
Q.
I have a necktie that
became distorted after
cleaning. What
happened?
A.
Because of their
construction, ties
can sometimes become
distorted during wear and cleaning. When distortion occurs, it appears
as a rippling or puckering of the outer fabric. Tie distortion is due
mainly to the method of construction. In order to form the irregular
shape of the tie, the outer fabric is cut on a bias. Bias-cut fabrics
are susceptible to stretching from flexing tension and stress during use.
Furthermore, many interlining materials used in ties are not completely
stabilized and can shrink during cleaning.
