Will there be pocket squares truly?

Last time I went and there were none. Or the ladies couldn't find them & you were out.

Nice. I'll be there.

Is this your main location, Carl? I want to put in a real shirt order some time soon.

CEGO is on 5th Ave. a bit south of 23rd.

The sample sale location is someone else's atelier.

I run this sale with several other friends. Not my loft.

I should be there for most of the sale.

Went by today.

Many nice shirts for Bullock & Jones, Andover shop. Barneys etc.

Also Carl's samples and unclaimed shirts in various rare fabrics. Plus many boxers, neck ties, some pillowcases, and lots of pocket squares in cotton shirting fabric that are so colorful and inexpensive that they're like little fabric bonbons. I bought 9, which cost a total of $15.

If someone is willing to pickup a bunch of pocket squares and list them here for sale, I am sure they can get double that (i.e. 3 for $10) or more. I would certainly buy a few if the patterns were attractive. I think Carl may not be interested in doing this but perhaps another enterprising SFer... ed, chorse...?

I'll do it and just charge the paypal fees, shipping above the Carl price.


Carl, PM sent

Here are the ones I got:



From left to right: yellow, white with red stitching, white with gray stitching, reddish, solid red, bluish (dobby?), pink, lavender, black. All are cotton.

In addition to still other colors and shades of the above colors, there were also checks and plaids. I did not see any stripes.

Thanks for posting the photo. I never seem to have the timeor skills to do so.
No stripes!
Micro checks
Small checks
larger checks
solids
End on end
broadcloth
royal oxford

Some fabrics are 50/1
but most are 100/2-140/2
If you are going to offer a lady your pocket square to dry her tears, you may never get these back.
But better these then your $15.00 hand rolled Irish linen.
