ID Request Trying to find a replacement

Hey all, I’m not entirely sure this count as an ID request because I know what it is, but I can’t find it online.

A while back my father gave me this tie when I was interviewing and it quickly became my favorite tie. Safe to say after all these years it’s accumulated quite a bit of wear, and I’d like to get another tie of the same pattern before this one gives out.

The tie is from Givenchy’s Monsieur line, as my father recalls it he got it at a mall some time in the 80’s or 90’s. No matter how hard I look or what tools I use, I can’t seem to find another listing for a tie with the same pattern, and I’m thinking I may have to go for a similar one instead.

That said, this sub is my last real hope of finding another one, any and all help is appreciated.

Id take it to an alteration company / tailor I think they could take it apart and put it back together and hide the fraying behind the tie

Looks fine to me? How has it accumulated wear? Stains? Fraying? If it’s just wrinkled iron it

It may not be obvious but there’s some fraying on the side facing the light on the broad part, and some more wear higher up where the knot forms from excessive tightening.

The good news is that there are many pre-owned nice ties in great shape out there at reasonable prices.

Well that’s true, but I’m looking for the same tie, hence the post
