The unique designs and motifs from its glorious past are today skilfully researched, and contemporarily reinterpreted. Brand history and roots are a guide and inspiration for its tie collections which are the Brand's core business along with pochettes, scarves, bandanas, bow ties and ascots.

The Holliday & Brown's uniqueness lies in its consolidated history, the stylistic heritage of its extraordinary Archive and its Made in Italy, Made in Como, and Made in Mantero vertical production chain.

In 1926, he founded "Holliday & Brown Ltd" with his family friend Mr Holliday. It was a brand of ties with unmistakable prints and unique and elegant colours. When Aubrey died, his brother Basil and son Colin took over the business, after moving to the historic Coach and Horses Yards headquarters. After working at Harrods, and printing and weaving work experiences, Colin acquired the trade’s techniques and secrets and became Art Director. Later, he became responsible for the entire family business. During the thrilling 1960s, Holliday & Brown became an internationally renowned name of excellence. During the 1970s and 1980s, which were revolutionary for art, music and fashion, the Brand, in its legendary Pink House headquarters, consolidated its position as leader of the British male style. Its prints with large British motifs and eccentric colours were its hallmark. In the 1990s, the Holliday & Brown headquarters moved to Savile Row, the famous address of the most essential and well-known tailoring workshops in the world and synonymous with elegance. The Brand was purchased in 2002 by Mantero Seta which jealously maintained the company's glorious past, and laid the foundations for building an important future.
