WEDDING OF THE WEEK: RYAN & STELLA
Meet Ryan, a young professional with a keen eye for style who came to us a couple of months back to get outfitted for his gorgeous wedding. Fortunately for us when Ryan sat down with our made-to-measure expert Konstantine he had a clear vision of what he was striving for. For his suit we virtually customized every aspect from the width and angle of the lapels, location of the button and shape of the front panels to create a garment that would meet all his needs and wants. The end result was this “Tom Ford inspired” single button, peak lapel tuxedo.

#NYC DAY 4 RECAP: FALL ’14 BUYING SEASON
All good things must come to an end, and with that we get ready to wrap up our stay in NYC and bid farewell to the big apple. But before we make our way to the airport there is still one matter of business that we needed to attend and that was the Mrket Show. By far one of the better trade shows we’ve attended this season, Mrket definitely offered a curated collection of vendors that really alined well to our brand and customers. This became evident when we started noticing that almost all our vendors were exhibiting at the show. We had the boys from Lipson, PYA Patrick Assaraf, Seaward & Stearn, Without Prejudice, Loft 604, Hook & Albert, Oscar of Sweden, just to name a few, all present and showing their latest collections.
Here is yet another snap shot/behind the scenes look into our last day in New York. Till we meet again New York.
