Dapper men’s brand Haspel celebrated their 105th anniversary in style by throwing a New Orleans style cocktail party at The Griffin in New York City.
Walking into the scene, attendees were seen socializing, as it seemed to be a very sociable and relaxed vibe with fun things to do like the photo booth. Most of the men were dressed in formal attire as some women were dressed in nice cocktail dresses.
The evening featured a very soulful performance by the New Orleans jazz band, Henry Butler & Friends. The music featured a nice pattern and good flow, as it was not too loud or overwhelming; attendees seemed to enjoy it as well. The event also featured clean suiting presentations from the 1900’s and Haspel’s Fall/Winter 2014 collection, which starred collaborations with Terrapin Stationers, Mulholland, Brooklyn Watches, and AO Eyewear.
Well known industry pacesetters like Bravo’s Andy Cohen, Eric West, Sam Shipley, and Jeff Halmos were in attendance and seemed impressed with the aura of the occasion. The event rounded up with the cutting of a 105-birthday cake decorated in blue and white icing. Cheers to Haspel Clothing and 105 years.
