A sports coat/dinner jacket made entirely of men's ties

The design possibilities are endless.
The accompanying tie would be made of tiny doll men's jackets.

I was hoping for a coat fastened at the top by a tie.

[link] by [csea] proves it is a sort-of-good idea, if fully baked. Small minds think alike, I guess.

OK then, the truth - I think this is a wonderful idea, which popped into my head as I awoke this morning. I envisioned the ties woven into a square quilt-like pattern, with allowances for the tapering of each tie counterbalanced by alternating wide and narrow ends. I could imagine the triangular tie tips sticking out here and there making nice patterns. The implementation pictured in the link is a woefully poor example of the design possibilities, in my opinion. Yea for a great idea! :-)

Works well for my trousers.
