All the Pageantry of Croquet, Indoors
You have a busy week ahead of you. Art parties,
burlesque supper clubs and
indie lounging.
And now, you've got to run game on the croquet course.
Introducing the
Duncan Quinn Pop-Up Shop, bringing you the sophistication of Savile Row tailoring,
free cocktails and the joys of indoor croquet, starting tomorrow.
Located in the Moore Building in the Design District, think of this temporary store as a
private
miniature country club that also happens to sell suits. Step in, and you'll find a full selection of the
British designer's natty menswear—slim, fitted jackets and pants, available either custom or off the
rack—plus a few classically trained tailors ready to surround you in tape measures (estimated
inseam-measuring awkwardness: slight). There'll also be more casual items like polos and T-shirts.
But what we're really excited about is the recreation center: a healthy-sized croquet course for your
ball-whacking and wicket-splitting pleasure.
And because nothing goes better with fashion and sport than a little gin, the Duncan Quinn folks will be
hosting a reception for UD members this Thursday night complete with martinis, fittings and a drawing for a
custom-made suit.
Gin and croquet kind of makes beer pong look uncivilized by comparison.
