The tan necktie with brown stripes is lined with silk-like textile and thicker white woven textile. A stylized brown embroidered “P” is present on the bottom of the tie. The white woven textile liner is relatively thick and is not immediately visible as it is wrapped in the outer tie material, but the lighter weight silk-like liner is visible on the bottom verso of the tie. Black text on the silk-like liner reads “Pierre CARDIN”.
