Russell Simmons Launches Store in Macy's Herald Square
This fall, entrepreneur and media mogul Russell Simmons is hitting the road to showcase his newest designs for his menswear label, Argyleculture. To kick things off, Simmons and Macy's executives will co-host an event on Thursday, September 30th in Macy's Herald Square, (New York City) to officially unveil the new Argyleculture men's shop and Fall 2010 collection to the public.
Russell Simmons will continue his fashion revolution with a series of Macy's appearances through November. Stopping in New York, Virginia, Illinois, Georgia, and Michigan, the tour will not only allow Argyleculture fans to meet and greet the fashion industry leader, but celebrate the sophisticated designs of the Fall 2010 collection. Created for the "urban graduate" - the man over the age of 25 who has "arrived" and is beginning to fulfill their dreams both personally and professionally, Argyleculture infuses original detailing with the buttoned-up styling of men's professional attire, including suits, argyle vests, zip-up sweaters, plaid oxfords, polos, and denims of different washes.
"The breakout moment for Argyleculture has arrived. I'll be going city to city on this Macy's tour connecting with my customers to continue promoting the Argyleculture brand," explains Russell Simmons.
