Seize sur Vingt (soft-)opens at the Plaza

Come see the new Retail Collection at The Plaza before it’s even finished. You see, we’re among the first group of shops that are complete and ready for business, while most of the space is still in construction. Check it out now to earn the “I saw it when” bragging rights.

We’re quite proud of our new digs. The store was sleekly and elegantly designed by the architecture firm 212box. Some of the details you’ll want for your own place – the massive rolling cabinets and slightly voyeuristic fitting mirrors are clearly the highlights. The really great news is that no matter where you live in NYC, you aren’t too far from your favorite shirts now.

To celebrate our northward expansion, and while we wait for our neighbors to open, we’re offering a discount of 15% on all suits/jackets/coats, ready-to-wear and custom, and even our cashmere sweaters and excellent 7-fold neckties. Not to discriminate against the downtown-bound, we’ll give the same deal to those of you who want to stop by either of the Elizabeth Street spaces.

We’re offering this exclusively to our loyal customers, so be sure to let us know you got this email when you stop in. The excitement of the unfinished Plaza won’t last much longer, and the deal is only good to Thanksgiving.

Looking forward to seeing you.

Secret Rendezvous - A Hideout For Music Lovers

Between spinning private parties and remixing records, our resident DJ Love On The Run has found the time to finally start his own music blog entitled "Secret Rendezvous". For those of you that have enjoyed his DJ sets at both Groupe and Seize Sur Vingt parties, you definitely want to subscribe to his blog, boasting an eclectic mix of hidden musical treasures. If you haven't had the opportunity to hear him live, this blog will give you a taste of his vast musical palette.



Love On The Run's mission with "Secret Rendezvous" is to hip the world to criminally slept on, and under appreciated music of all genres. Expect exclusive mixtapes, artist interviews, and plenty of music you've never heard before, spanning soul, dub, disco, rock, funk, boogie and left of center genres from beyond...

We are also now carrying a mix of Love On The Run's entitled "Fire Keep On Burning - Afro Caribbean Funk and Deep Disco Heat" available at Groupe.

The National

Our friends The National stopped by to do some shopping last week. It was great to have them in the store plus, we scored some free tickets!

Thanks to Foster for the quick photoshoot.

Seize sur Vingt 10 Year Anniversary Celebration

Seven years maybe, but 10 years seems hard to believe.

Please join us in celebration of a decade of understated modern classics and slightly riotous garden parties on Elizabeth St. We've had a wonderful time building a business and a family, both real and metaphorical, in our little corner of this great city. We feel lucky and honored to have been given such a great opportunity.

Let's raise a glass also to 3 years of Groupe 16sur20 with Troglodyte Homunculus, Wolf-Rayet, UBNY and the micro-conglomerate we've started in the old marble factory up the street.

And save at least one toast to an exciting future starting with the SSV shop opening in the Plaza Hotel by October as well as the Springlawn Hotel in Lenox MA, now slated for a late 2009 launch. We certainly hope to keep growing, but always focusing on the highest quality product and the most intimate and personal service.

Thanks to everyone for your support and patronage. Hoping to see you on today.

Sincerely,
Gwendolyn and James Jurney
