PHONE BOOTHS
You're Invited to a Confederacy Party
To kick off the new Shipley & Halmos collection with proper aplomb, Confederacy owners Danny Masterson
and Ilaria Urbinati will be hosting an intimate little blowout tonight, with a surprise band and gratis PBR.
And yes, Masterson (aka DJ MomJeans) will hit the turntables. Think of the vintage-phone-booth dressing
rooms as the VIP section.
