We’re back safely from our travels, both Tom and I had a great time seeing customers old and new. It’s now down to business ordering fabric and getting the shirts made.
In New York we met with a couple of Savile Row stalwarts, Ravi Tailor and John Reed, two fantastic characters who were visiting some clients in the city. I was also very pleased that Mr. Macleod popped up from West Texas, we all went for lunch at the Oyster Bar in Grand Central Station (my favourite in NY). Hugh, for those who don’t know is a fabulous cartoonist, and the man behind Gaping Void… he was kind enough to draw on his new book for me (a bestseller don’t you know!) if you don’t have it then you should go buy it – it has inspired me as Hugh did himself a couple of years ago, to be brave and start my own business and do what you love. He is the man behind the cartoon on my business card for those of who have one – it always causes a chuckle!
So thats my transatlantic adventures over for this year, I’ll be back in the Spring, if you want to be notified of my travels do let me know at shirts@lucyadams.co.uk
