A serendipitous evening
“As Oscar Wilde would say, ‘a well-tied tie is the first serious step in life’, a sentiment that any arbiter of taste will agree with. But what’s a perfect knot without an impeccable base? I’ve already decided on the right tie for a sartorially challenged friend—silk twill, with an understated yet playful archive print. It's no surprise that I find myself at the Hermès boutique at Liat Towers, in search of that gift. To my amazement, there is not a soul in sight. Surely there is no harm in having the maison all to myself, just for one night?”
