Anachronistic Offering: A Debut?

Brian must be holding on to the last vestiges of summer, for the cool pastels of tonight's tie seem very anachronistic for late September. The frosty blushing lilac background crossed with very narrow shell pink diagonal stripes is more reminiscent of Easter bunnies and crocuses than imminent harvest or Halloween jack-o-lanterns. Is this cravat making its debut this evening? I'll have to study the archives to be certain.
