Men may have thought they were safe from the pleat frenzy that permeated skirt fashions this fall. Better think again. Perry Jones, a Seattle dentist-turned- fashion designer, has created a new neckwear collection with a focus on folds.

The 43-year-old Jones likes the ”sculptural quality” pleats give his ties. ”With pleats, light reflects more off the silk,” he says. ”It`s like the difference between an uncut jewel and one with facets.”

Jones` ties are available for $75 at Nordstrom stores. To special order, call 708-571-2121, ext. 1210.
