Faithful to its mission to pay tribute to the Great Civilizations that have built the noble history of the tie, a stop by Croatia is a must.
The modern tie is a particular dress attribute of a regiment of Croatian hussars created under Louis XIII, whose uniform included a white scarf. Its fashion quickly won the court of France. The French word for tie ("cravate") derives from this origin : a deformation of the word “croate”. In most cases, enemies did not have the chance to see the hussars close enough to admire their ties : their last vision was the pair of wings at the back of their armors. The tie displays this pair of wings - the most recognizable attribute from what was once known as the most fearful cavalry.
