I’m Dorothea, founder of Sir Walter. Originally from Bruges, Belgium, my passion for craftsmanship and aesthetics began with designing refined accessories under my first brand, Fritz & Hammy’s. What started as a collection for dogs soon evolved into a broader story about elegance, detail, and refinement.
The demand for men’s bow ties—especially for weddings and other special occasions—sparked a new idea. I designed my first bow tie for my partner, carefully matched to my own outfit. The attention it received confirmed what I felt: there is room for refined, handcrafted men’s accessories with character.
This gave rise to Sir Walter: an accessories brand for men who want to express their style in a personal and timeless way.
At Sir Walter, everything revolves around quality, character, and craftsmanship. Think: rich colours, luxurious fabrics, handmade finishes with a velvet inner band, and a bow tie shape that subtly deviates from the classic. Not standard. Not dull. But stylish—with a wink.
For those who wish, it’s still possible to match: with a partner, an outfit, or even a dog—but always with class.
Welcome to Sir Walter.
