Vintage/knitted tie clearout

Apologies if you've emailed us of late to buy some bulk knitted or slim ties, the sales inbox seems to have had problems, but it's back in operation now and we're back selling off vintage ties in bulk.

We have a large number of vintage and knitted ties in a variety of styles and colours, many of which were sold on the site for £7 each. But as part of a clearout, we're now selling at bulk rates:

5 knitted or vintage ties = £15 (including free UK delivery)
10 knitted or vintage ties = £25 (including free UK delivery)

All ties will be shipped randomly, with condition varying from very good to excellent (a few are actually as new, still in packets). I'll try and mix up the colours of each batch, but cannot guarantee certain colours for each batch. If you want to purchase, just drop us a line at:
david@modculture.co.uk
with the header 'ties', saying if you want vintage, knitted or a mix of both. I'll get back to you with payment details (Paypal will be preferred). Any questions, email me at the same address. Overseas purchasers, drop me a line for postage rates. Look out for more vintage items being cleared out soon.

Paul Smith 60s-style A-line coat

There's something very 'Jackie O' about this Paul Smith 60s-style A-line coat.

It's a woven fuchsia wool blend A-line shape coat, double breasted and with oversized buttons, along with a crew neckline, raglan sleeves, curved seam pockets and a lining in red and navy fabric. In terms of length, the hem finishes just below the knee.

Not cheap though, it sells for a fairly hefty £449.
