Lumina Clothing Co.

Lumina Clothing Company is a Raleigh, NC based brand making handmade neckwear in the good old US of A.  Their southern heritage comes together with modern sensibility in the ties which combine classic southern fabrics (perfect for this time of year) and modern cuts.  All their neckwear comes in three widths ranging from a "skinny" 2 inches to a traditional 3.25 inches.  With bow ties going for $39 and ties $59 Lumina presents itself as another affordable player in the neckwear conversation.  My favorites have to be the printed bow ties, which I imagine looking pretty smashing when paired with a white or blue oxford at your local lawn party.  Break out the mint juleps because it's time to tie one on.

  1. 2" to 3.25" is a pretty big jump. Where is the 2.75" when you need it?

  3. For neckties they only list 2: skinny - 2" and traditional - 3.25."
    Bowties are 2" or 2.5." They have some nice stuff too.

  4. Hey Nicholas-

    We haven't had much interest in the 2.5" tie, which is why we haven't added it online. We definitely produce it, and we have been planning to add it but have recently been extremely busy. Since you asked, we will add it to the online shop ASAP.

    Thanks!
