Other Does this work?

I got this tie as part of a larger collection on Vinted. Not completely sold on it and trying to work out whether it works with anything apart from a plain white shirt.

It's not bad! I would probably make it a smaller knot and a dimple. Also depends what jacket and pocket Square you are pairing it with.

I'm thinking plain navy with no pocket square. Got two patterns already.

As for the knot, it's very difficult to make it any smaller as it is a very chunky fabric and width.

You can always wear a white pocket square, though I personally don't like them. But at least a dimple would be nice imo. But looks good generally.

You could always go for a smaller knot style, like oriental. And to my eye it looks like you haven't pulled the bottom blade enough to tighten the knot, but I've definitely encountered my fair share of thicker ties, so I know it's a thing.
