It might just be the picture, but it looks like if anything the tie washes out a little too much relative to the shirt.
I think you're right tbh
I'm not a big fashionista or anything but I would also say that the tie is not a good fit.
It needs to go on something it can contrast with and there it just sort of blends in.
The "general" rule is that your tie should be darker than your shirt. Unless you're Regis Philbin and you're hosting Who Wants to Be A Millionaire?, don't get cute with classic suit rules. No "Eldridge knot" bullshit, no crazy colors, NO HATS.
Personally I would not ask a bunch of Linux nerds for fashion advice
Imo the tie and shirt do work together, but they're both quite light and washed-out, so the waistcoat being much darker than both prevents the tie from popping out the way it should. To rephrase : if I squint, I can't really make out the tie from the shirt compared to the waistcoat.
Changing just one thing, a rich/dark red tie or perhaps a lighter waistcoat might work well here.
Otherwise I think you're pretty fly :)
I have no male fashion hobby or interest, but as a layman lurker from /new, I think it looks great.
Also not a regular here, but my first impression is that the gray is an issue here. I think that the pink and the gray would work well, especially with other cooler tones, or lean in on the warm brown with the pink instead (maybe with a dark brown vest?).
It took me too long to find the pink.
I still can't find it. Nor the brown.

Oh no... I guess I didn't realize how bad the lighting was 😓
it’s a big swing, considering you already have 3 different patterns/textures, but wear it with confidence & you’re good to go 🤓 love the shade of pink 🤙🏼
Please message me before you go out so I know to keep my girl inside.
The way your wearing it it does.
I don't think so. The patterns are clashy, and neither color really is playing as an accent... But I think the worst part is the white collar against the pink tie TBH. To me this is loud but doesn't say anything.
Edit: then again, basically no matter what vest, shirt and tie you bring to me I'm going to say no, esp if you're going to accessorize like a train conductor... But you know, I might not be the target audience.
Lol
I will say I think this outfit has a better chance of working if you're a black dude, an indian dude, or I guess generally have a very dark complexion. Would not look good on my pasty ass basically no matter what.
A solid white dress shirt would make the whole outfit immediately pop more, in my opinion.
I think that demands a more saturated pink tie. Putting that one on white would probably look extra washed out.
VERY silly
I think I'd simplify either the shirt or the tie. They're kind of fighting each other for attention.
Something about this makes me feel like I'm looking at a negative (inverted) image.
Whats the button/pocket chain?
I love it!
