RaoulAngel Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hello all! New to the forum here. Love Miami Vice, I actually use it as a beacon for the clothing I wear a lot. On that note I hope someone here can help. In "Mirror Image" when Burnett was at the party, talking with Guttierez at the pool bar, he is wearing all white, and a grey/white tie with an intricate zigzag type pattern on it. I have been collecting ties for nearly 25 years now, and I still cannot find that tie? Does ANYONE know who it is made by, and how I can get that pattern?? I figure someone here might have the inside track on it. I tried getting a pic of it so I could reproduce it (I make ties too) but I cannot get a hi res enough shot. I attached a pic of it for you guys to remember it. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airtommy Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 I know nothing about the clothing of Miami Vice, so I can't help you. I do think that tie is primo. Whenever I watch the Burnett arc, I admire the ties he wore. They're my favorite style. I'd be shocked to find out they aren't Italian.

daytona365 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Welcome to the forum! That's a very beautiful tie and a rather unique design - which will make it quite hard to dig one up some twenty-eight years later. No clue what make that could be. If there's someone around here who might happen know I guess it's Cooper&Burnett, as he has the most stunning collection of MV clothing and accessories on this planet. I wish you good luck finding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulAngel Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 The Episode says that "some" wardrobe provided by HUGO BOSS, and I looked at everything available by them since the 60's but while they have some great stuff (some of which I have purchased) this eludes me, if it indeed is one of theirs..

daytona365 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) I know similar is never enough but here's one that somewhat picks up the stile: Edited February 24, 2016 by daytona365 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulAngel Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 I actually already have that one! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulAngel Posted February 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Is there a record somewhere of every designer used in the show? By season maybe, or just in general? My goal is to find this tie by the end of this year, cost not being an issue.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulAngel Posted February 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) Well, I just went through every available style by Gianni Versace, came up with this. I bought it, but it's not exact, so still looking. https://www.etsy.com/listing/255927596/sale-now-20-was-30-vintage-versus-by?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=Gianni%20Versace%20tie&ref=sr_gallery_40 Edited February 26, 2016 by RaoulAngel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerstripe Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Sweet looking tie! Hope you do find the Burnett tie as well! I managed to purchase a pair of original Revo 840's last summer! Love the Burnett Look! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airtommy Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 I am NOT a fashion expert, but it looks like Armani to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulAngel Posted February 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 You're a better expert than I! You're absolutely right this screams Armani and I missed that. Looking n ow, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulAngel Posted February 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 As Burnett would say "We're twisting in the right direction"! So far found this.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaoulAngel Posted February 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Well, I've been through the entire available Armani line that is visible on the internet, and so far did not find it. I will have to look again in a few days when new listings pop up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
