The term 'Silken Neckwear' can be summarized as a type of ASCOT, which is a type of neckwear made from silk. An ASCOT is a wide, cravat-like necktie that is usually made of silk and worn with a suit or tuxedo. It is typically tied in a bow or knot at the neck and is often accompanied by a matching pocket square. ASCOT ties are popular among men for formal occasions such as weddings and other special events.
