Brooks Brothers’ Post

The new Brooks Brothers flagship is finally here! Located at 195 Broadway, the 10,000 square foot store re-establishes a footprint in the Lower Manhattan neighborhood where the brand was launched more than two centuries ago. The flagship will offer a complete selection from its men’s and women’s collections of tailored clothing and sportswear designed by Michael Bastian, the brand’s creative director, as well as exclusives only available in store. Seamlessly blending the past, present, and future of the brand, the store also incorporates a rotating exhibition of historic items from the brand archives, such as an exact replica of Abraham Lincoln’s Great Coat created by Brooks Brothers for Lincoln’s second inauguration, and an antique mirror from the Brooks Brothers store of that era. To celebrate the opening, Brooks Brothers hosted a reception followed by an intimate dinner hosted by Brand CEO Ken Ohashi and Creative Director Michael Bastian. Special guests included Catalyst Brands LLC CEO Marc Rosen, comedian Ego Nwodim, film producer Mia Criss, and actor Claybourne Elder.
