Bonobos Georgetown

We know many of you are already big fans of Bonobos, and their amazing menswear, so we couldn’t be more excited to announce the opening of the location in Georgetown on January 30th!

In addition to their fabulous everyday wear, Bonobos offers many fantastic wedding options. Not only do they have great fitting pants, suits, wrinkle free shirts (!) and tuxedo options, they offer free shipping and returns- hello groomsmen who don’t live in the area!

Our favorite feature? The Made To Order feature where couples can pick fabrics and inside pop linings (for suits, tuxedo’s and even chino’s – the turnaround is a quick 6 weeks). And the biggest bonus- Bonobo’s offers a 15% discount for parties of 5 or more.

They’re also doing their very own giveaway you won’t want to miss.

Please contact Katie at kmanning@bonobos.comat the DC store for more information.

Michael Andrews Bespoke

When you think of shopping for wedding attire, looking for a bridal gown is the first thing that comes to mind. But don’t be so quick to disregard the grooms duds- a good fitting suit can be hard to find! Luckily, Michael Andrews Bespoke just opened their doors to a brand new D.C. shop, and we promise it’s one you won’t want to miss.

When and how did Michael Andrews Bespoke get its start? 

Michael Andrews Bespoke opened in 2006 after CEO/Co-Founder Michael Andrews wore a suit and tie to work every day for nearly eight years and couldn’t find one that fit to his liking. After trying more than a dozen tailors, he decided to open his own shop to make exactly what he wanted.

Bethesda Custom Tailors

Bethesda Custom Tailors offers personal service for local grooms, groomsmen and dads who need to be outfitted for the big day!  We caught up with them to ask a few questions on behalf of the boys…

What looks are most popular for grooms? For groomsmen?

The classic tuxedo features always remain popular – notch lapel, bowtie and cummerbund – and usually the style is the same for groomsmen. Matching the bridesmaids is a look many choose for their groomsmen, and coordinating vests and neckties are the perfect way to pull this off.
