Necktie 1953 The Victoria & Albert Museum |
The central tie in this photo in red, gold and blue is part of the Victoria & Albert Museum’s collection of clothing. This tie was made and worn to commemorate the 1953 Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The silk tie is printed with a design which is based on the Royal Standard of the United Kingdom and combines the gold harp of Ireland and the red lion of Scotland with the three gold lions of England.
I would wear this tie. I think it’s quite handsome and would be a nice tribute for the Queen’s upcoming Diamond Jubilee.
