A Rather Splendid Silk Tie That Actually Has Something to Say
Look, we'll be honest: this isn't your standard neckwear. This pale blue silk tie features a gloriously unusual digitally printed design inspired by the scientific theory of evolution itself. Hand illustrated botanical artwork sits rather beautifully alongside pineapples, flowers, and most unexpectedly, an x-ray image of a crab. Yes, a crab. We were equally bewildered when we first saw it.
Why Choose Our Pale Blue Silk Tie
Utterly Fetching Design The artwork was hand painted and collaged by artist Alice Acreman, then digitally printed onto luxurious silk twill. It's the sort of thing that makes people lean in at dinner parties and ask rather pointed questions.
Beautifully Thoughtful Details The inside lining surprises in contrasting orange silk, a hidden flourish only you and your tailor will ever witness. Rather good, that.
Modern Cut, Properly Proportioned At a slender width between standard and skinny, this tie gives you a contemporary silhouette without the awkwardness of either extreme.
Part of a Curated Collection The Evolution Collection draws inspiration from both scientific advancement and the development of textile design through history. It's the sort of thing that suggests you have opinions about things.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay
SECURE AS HOUSES

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.
