I'm pleased to say the dates are fixed for two pop-ups this year - in London next month and then in New York in October.
In three weeks we will be back on Savile Row, kindly hosted by New & Lingwood in their space at No.19. This worked well back in the Autumn, so we're nipping in again before they close. It'll be Wednesday March 20th to Saturday 23rd, 11 to 7.
There won't be an opening party, because the new book 'The Casual Style Guide' will be launching soon and there will be a party for that. Details on that hopefully this week.
There also won't be any other brands joining us in London, but as last time, there will be a selection of New & Lingwood products at the end of the store, and I will be curating a selection of their Spring/Summer pieces, so it will all be very PS-focused.
In New York, we will again be with the lovely J Mueser team on Christopher Street. We'll be joined by Rubato and Seiji McCarthy, and possibly Taillour - to be confirmed. Fred is in New York all the time anyway at the moment, so it will be lovely to have him but no one will miss out if he can't be there.
The dates for that are Wednesday, October 16th to Saturday 19th. Same opening times as usual, 11-7, and the address is 14 Christopher Street (suite 1). There will be opening drinks, as last time, on the Wednesday 16th.
Other notes in anticipation of questions (though I'm sure I will have forgotten something):
- Any seasonal product in stock on the online shop will be available in the pop-ups. So in London in March we might not bring all the outerwear, as stock is now patchy and it's not necessarily what people are interested in. But let us know if you want to see something in particular.
- Any new launches before then - at least one - will be available. Details on all expected products this Spring/Summer here.
- The Casual Style Guide book will be available online and at retailers a couple of weeks after the London launch party.
Clothes pictured (in some shots we had left over from this shoot): Grey cashmere crewneck, which will be available for pre-order in the London pop-up in a total of four colours, PS undershirt, vintage Pendleton wool overshirt, vintage seventies 501s, and a PS brown watch cap.
Congrats on the upcoming pop-ups!
Can you reveal what the new colors for the cashmere crew neck will be!?
No Ralph, but that will be soon – have a look at the shop update article last week for all details there
‘The Casual Style Guide’ …. Can you tell us alittle more .
Looking forward to it .
Not yet, but it won’t be long!
Sounds lovely!
Maybe I can make it this time.
On the cashmere crewnecks: hopefully you have a real midnight navy in there. Most are just to light to wear them with really dark navys,
Hi Simon, from a business Perspective what’s in it for you when you host the pop ups with other brands? I appreciate you get an article out of it but do you also take a percentage of sales or how does it work?
We split the costs of the space and any events etc
October 19th to 22nd are Saturday to Tuesday, not Wednesday to Saturday.
Sorry, should be 16-19, I’ll update now
The dates are updated… but it still reads “opening drinks, as last time, on the Wednesday 19th.” No worries just thought you’d like to know. Apologies if it is just a caching issue.
Aaaaargh! Damn it, thanks Ben. Will update again. At least this isn’t until October!
Please bring Sieji to London!
I’ll certainly ask. He has family in New York which makes things rather easier. And he has a new workshop which needs a good amount of looking after
Simon,
Will you have the linen Harrington at the London pop-up ?
Regards,
David
We’ll only have the sizes that are in stock on the shop David. As detailed in the shop article last week, the Linen Harrington is not being restocked until May
I wish I knew what overcoat that was I would love to find one
Where is your right hand in the bottom photo!
Haha! Never noticed that. I think it’s tucked in my back pocket but the cuff is open so it looks kind of weird
Any chance you could bring the Peacoat (Bridge coat)?
We only have small and extra-small in stock Rups – is that what you were interested in?
Sadly those would be too small for me Simon.
Ah well, never mind. As I said, we can only bring things that are in stock on the shop – we don’t have hidden stock just sitting around somewhere!
Ah, but do you have stores, tailors or particular products that you are so fond of and so protective of that you would never share how you came about them — or even what the item or little shop is — for fear of directing swarms of people to some sartorial “gold mine”?
Not really, no, it’s kind of the mission of the blog to give those places business. And we’re not quite big enough that anyone’s been swamped yet!
You have aged like a fine wine Simon.
You’re insanely kind
I missed you at the last pop-up I attended a couple of years back, Simon. I cant make this one however, next year or two I look forward to it, would love to share a drink or a coffee.
I love the outfit above, can’t wait for the crew neck pre order!
Will the linen overshirt be available? I’ll be in from the States and would love to grab it!
Some of them should be, yes. However remember we don’t sell most things on site in the shop – they are for try-on, with orders done online and sent to you (and given there’s no duty on US imports below $800 it would even be cheaper for you to get it sent to the US)
Perfect, thank you for the reply :)!
Is it possible to get contact info for those who have won the recent shoe shine patina contest?
I don’t really get involved with that David, you’re better going to one of the shoe sites
Hi Simon, slightly off topic, but have you tried the new cotton knits by The Anthology? If yes, what’s your take on them?
The long-sleeved ones? No I haven’t I’m afraid
Hi Simon. Will the PS shorts be available to try at the London pop-up?
Hey Matt,
We will have what’s in stock on the shop, which I believe is just large navy! A restock is coming, but I don’t think it will be in time for the pop-up. I’ll reply to you again here if that changes.
Excited for this. Any word on whether/when Rubato might be doing a pop-up in London this year Simon?
Not currently, no David, though I know they are looking
Hi Simon
Just to check the oxford restock hasn’t already come and gone in March? Hoping not to have missed out.
Thanks
Peter
Hello Peter
These have been shipped by Luca and we should be restocking them next week.
Best
Lucas
Superb – thanks Lucas!
Will you have the PWVC x PS English Tweed Overcoat at the NYC popup? Or any other pieces of heavier outerwear?
Yes, we should have all the outerwear hopefully. Ask closer to the time to be sure, but they are all expected before then
Sounds fantastic! Thank you Simon, I look forward to meeting you this year.
Hi Simon, are you planning on brining back the original concept of hosting a number of brands at the pop up going forward or will this mainly be a PS shop pop up now?
It’s entirely dependent on the spaces we can get – we’re so small we’re always begging and borrowing, unfortunately. I’d love to bring in more brands in the future if I could
