Sebastian's Closet in Atlanta is about to start carrying them as well. They are very excited about carrying the line.

I saw some at a haberdashery in Santa Fe NM in Jan. Was near the town center. Can't recall the name.

Sebastian's will be closed for a little while soon because they are doing store renovations and they told me something they did that was cool. There were in this years Esquire Black Book as a featured retailer and they sent a free copy to all of their customers on their mailing list, regardless if they had purchased clothes there.

If you are on Peachtree near Piedmont, check it out. But I don't know if I would suggest going out of your way to visit. Unlike Sid's...I tell everyone to go there.

By the way, Sid is featured in this months Peach mag.

Thanks. I've definitely heard mixed reviews about Sebastian's Closet.

My friend Pete showed me the Peach article. Incidentally, that same friend Pete is now taking Randy's place as Sid Mashburn's store manager. Funny how things work out!

I also heard that the Boglioli shipment has arrived at SM.

He told me he's moving back home (Ohio I think it was). He implied that it was a family issue, meaning he doesn't see them much anymore since he started managing SM. Apparently he's going back to work for Express as a buyer.

That is what I thought you might say. I saw him walking around Nieman's two Sunday's ago and he was with his wife and kids. I remember thinking they looked like they felt out of place, if that makes sense. And this is Pete from the Polo store? I dropped a hint to Sid a few weeks ago that he would be a good fit if they ever needed a (then) third guy. He will fit well with Sid and learn a lot. Great news for him.

I agree. Pete and I talk about clothes all the time and have been since we worked together at the Polo store. I think Pete and Sid will work well together. By the way Bill wanted to get together soon. You should join us. Maybe get Pete and Lee to come along as well.

There seems to be more Caruso-made suits/coats than Caruso-branded ones. RL Black Label, "Made in Italy" Dunhill + several store brands (I stopped by a store called Kabay in Soho last Saturday and their suits are made by Ma.Co)
