Quarantine had some of us questioning if we'd ever wear anything but sweats again. But for Willa Bennett—noted suit enthusiast and GQ's senior manager of social media—nothing could be further from the truth. After her impeccably stylish dad passed down a handful of ties last year, Willa spent the rest of lockdown “daydreaming about wearing them into the world.” Now, at long last, she's back out there knotting up neckwear with the best of 'em.
“My father has always been my style north star,” Willa says. “This particular vintage striped tie—tucked neatly into my favorite cricket vest—is a perfect ode to my love of the classic looks he sports so effortlessly.”
Feeling ready to make Willa your muse and cinch up a bold new necktie? We gathered up a few strong options for your shopping pleasure below. To take a closer look at Willa's supremely big fit—and for every installment of #GQStaffStyle—be sure to follow @GQ on Instagram.
