On Thursday, December 4th, new luxury men’s footwear and accessories brand, Paul Drish, held a media launch party for their debut Autumn/Winter 2014 collection at their new showroom in Tribeca.
The event celebrated the launch of the brand and the debut of their first men’s footwear and accessories collection, complete with 26 shoe styles and 7 bag styles.
Guests were able to view the collection in its entirety, try on their favorite styles, and even make purchases. Guests were also treated to cocktails courtesy of Clyde May’s Alabama Whiskey and Milano Green Vodka, as well as shoe shines from John Allan’s Premier Men’s Grooming Club.
Paul Drish co-founder Arveena Ahluwalia was on hand to walk guests through the collection and speak to the inspiration behind it.
“I wanted to not only create the most comfortable shoe, but also design them on par with other luxury fashion brands,” said Ahluwalia of the brand, “Growing up in India, I always admired the nation’s centuries of craft leatherworking. With the strong integrity in craftsmanship coupled with lower production costs due to a vertically integrated factory, we eliminate the third party and are able to produce high-end leather shoes and bags at competitive prices.”
The Paul Drish showroom, located at 50 Murray Street, is now open to the public for private appointments. All Paul Drish shoes feature the brand’s signature purple lining, are delivered in a durable drawer-style jute box, and are tucked inside an embroidered purple cotton dust bag. Each pair comes with a leather shoe horn and an extra padded leather insole for additional comfort.
