Seeing Spots – Valet.com

Tuesday, March 13, 2012

Seeing spots? Valet.com certainly is. In a recent editorial the author creates a terrific round up of all things dotty. Something tells me that polka dots are going to be around for a while – and something we’ll be seeing a lot more of.

The 1883 shirt (named after the West Texas town Lobo) they feature is made up in one of the more interesting shirt fabrics that we’ve ever come across. Not only does the cotton have a fantastic print on the face, but turn up the sleeves and the back reveals a different but coordinating pattern printed on the inside. Its very cool…even if we say so ourselves. We were so impressed by this unique fabric that we also decided to make it up into a western style to really show off the reverse utilizing the classic western yokes.

Once again, Daniel Radcliffe does Houston proud by wearing another Hamilton Shirt– this time announcing the ‘BAFTA’ nominations on Tuesday in London. The ‘BAFTA Awards’ or ‘British Academy Film Awards’ are basically the U.K. equivalent of our Academy Award Oscars. Looking snappy in a John Varvatos suit, a Shipley & Halmos tie and a bespoke Hamilton shirt, Daniel looks put together and well rested after his successful gig hosting SNL in New York just two days prior.
