Default Prince Albert Fashion and Style
Albert has a wide range of ties like his sisters have jewels. I included suits since he also has several nice ones as well. If we know the designer it might be nice to share as well since we do that with his sisters. Some are bought off the rack and others made by the Palace tailor.

Thought we could see how many he actually has and share our favorite. This one I like as you will see has flags from other countries on it and I will open with it. Worn during the 2001 World Music Awards. Corbis

I'm currently working on a compilation of Albert's ties. He recently said that his gets some of his ties and suits tailormade but often goes to the Hugo Boss in Monaco to buy them off the rack. Then he'll accessorize with a pair of expensive sunglasses, often Oakleys. I've noticed Albert, Andrea and Rainier wearing navyblue ties that look like they have the Grimaldi coat of arms printed on them. Does anyone know about this tradition? I'd love to know more about this!

No I hadn't noticed that with the coat of arms on it. I did read the article. I have a few more photo's except haven't figured out how to use the image housing yet.

YES! That is it! You think it is the Grimaldi coat of arms too? I think so!

This is kind of the official tie to wear for the Monaco princes.

Like here Louis and Andrea:

If you notice the boys ties have a lot of the stripes only one design compared to Alberts.

Right, Andrea and Louis wear an identical tie tough, don't they?
I think these are all the official tie ( changed a bit maybe over the years) because they have the some Monaco design on and red-and-white ( Monaco colours) stripes.

That's awesome. I thought Louis was wearing it too at the enthronement but I was unsure because it looked slightly different. but this close up that Michelle posted confirms that it is the official tie, just changed a bit, with one coat of arms at the top and more stripes.

I have not found any pic of Pierre wearing the tie, though. I'm sure he has worn it when he was younger to the official events, but Pierre's personal style is so different from the official style. He likes bright color ties, so I think if he has a choice, he doesn't wear the official tie.
I bet there is a pic somewhere of him wearing it in younger years though.

Since this is Prince Albert's thread, here's some pics of him wearing the Grimaldi official tie:
