| PURVIS YOUNG SETS STAGE FOR JEANS
The new Grown & Sewn collection, which specializes in "Kax," a lightweight three-ply cotton twill that is designed as a cross between khakis and jeans, has taken a novel approach to its new store at 184 Duane Street in Tribeca. Grown & Sewn is presenting its clothing along with an exhibition of works by Purvis Young, Nov. 19, 2009-Jan. 25, 2010. Young’s paintings and works on paper, which are provided by Skot Foreman Fine Art, include Figures (1988), a haunting image of men in a boat painted on a 24 x 15 in. cabinet door ($3,000), and Crazy House (1992), a 48 x 53 in. Overall, the Young works range in price from $125 to $50,000.
As for the clothing, the line includes t-shirts (with classic American designs, like the colonial eagle), belts and a rugged urban tote. Everything is made in the U.S. Prices for the pants, which come in khaki, black and several other manly hues, are $175-$185. The fashions, which are billed as a "dry good collection from home-grown crops, spun thread and though hands," are the brainchild of Rob Magness, a fashion veteran who worked for Ralph Lauren for ten years.
