On September 6th, 2007, formal wear products made of fineest fabrics and superior inner products bearing the prestigious Steinway & Sons brand will be shown to selected invited guests and members of the press and media at New York City's Steinway Hall, on W. 57th Street.


/Apparel - Textile News Articles/ - FARMINGDALE, NY, July 30, 2007 - Steinway & Sons, the venerable piano manufacturer, unveiled plans for its high-end line of formalwear last week in their own publication and trade magazines ahead of their launch in early September. Created through a license with the Scarsdale, N.Y.-based R/G Black Tie LLC, the collection consists of four primary tuxedo models, furnishings and accessories.

The entry-level tux, The Celebrity, an off-the-rack, fused garment made from super 110s, will retail for $600. The tux will be made and marketed to music professionals, who don formalwear for most public performances. The garment is equipped with washable, breathable fabric for increased comfort as well as a patented underarm panel that allows for better movement. This model is expected to generate 22 percent of the collection's total sales.

Next, The Lyre, an off-the-rack, half-canvassed tux with super 120s fabrication, will retail for $1,700. A Lyre tuxedo wth tails will retail for $2,500.

The collection also includes two made-to-measure models. The Maestro, fully canvassed and fashioned from super 130s, will retail between $2,500 and $4,000. The Grand, also fully canvassed, boasts super 160s, hand-sewing and custom tailoring. This tux will retail between $7,500 and $10,000.

All four models are made in Italy from Loro Piana fabrics and Bember linings.

The collection also includes sevenfold ties, machine-made ties, shirts, cummerbunds, shoes by John Lobb and formal jewelry. The company also worked with De Beers to patent a star-cut diamond to be used in a limited-edition set of cufflinks.
