Sorry for the wait guys, I finally got these photographed and online. As with the first round: 1. Ties measure 2.5" wide and 58" long. Bowties are square-end and measure 1.5" wide. 2. Made in NYC of either Italian silk or US cotton 3. Any order placed on my website over $50 automatically ships for free in the US. For SF members, if you want one of the items under $50, then I'll ship those for free to the US as well. Just PM me. 4. We only have 3-4 units of each tie, so if there's a style that you like, you might want to grab it quickly. Bowties First...

Yup, that's us. Alex & Simon live a few blocks away from the shop, so we know them really well. They're regular customers. It's amazing how often I hear this. There are "Real Housewives" fans coming out of the woodwork. Our UPS guy - who seriously resembles the "King of Queens," and would be the last guy I expect to watch any show on Bravo, called it out the day after that episode aired. It was crazy. There's a chance that I might be on this Tuesday's episode. I went to the party that they filmed. I didn't know anyone and just drank my face off. Because I wore a cardigan and had sideburns, everyone at this event assumed that I was in "Flight of the Conchords." I got wasted on Pomegranate martinis and danced like an idiot when they played Daft Punk. Actually, it's probably best if they don't show me on there.

Hey everyone,

In addition to the collaborative Styleforum shirts, we've got a bunch of other items coming. Here's a little fabric swatch preview. Everything is scheduled to arrive around May 25th.

I'm thrilled to say that we've got a new pattern - a slim-fit buttondown shortsleeve! It will sell for $110, and has a great turned-up notch detail at the end of the sleeves.

Haha. I think I "know" of this infamous night. Wish I were there.

Thanks to this thread, I did something stupid; for some reason I just bought a bow-tie. I'm sure the minute I put it on, I'll laugh.

Unfortunately, I'm not a US SF'er though. Free shipping options was really the only reason I considered doing my M.Sc. in the US, but alas, I'm Canadian for life.

Lorenzo Martone, Marc Jacobs' fiancee, wore our burgundy stripe square-end bowtie to his 30th birthday party. It was pretty cool when we saw the photos on W magazine's blog.

When I turned 30, I hired a punk/metal karaoke band and paid them an extra $500 to learn "Body Count's In the House" for that evening. I think that I'm still suffering from partial hearing loss.
