With Fashion Week here in full force, we were eager to catch up with Ignacio Quiles, one of 3rd Ward's most stylish members. For a quick taste of his sartorial prowess, check out this photo feature on BackyardBill.com.
Quiles kicked off Fashion Week last Thursday with a Fashion's Night Out event at Artists & Fleas, the indoor market in Williambsurg that hosts QP & Monty, his vintage lifestyle emporium. "The FNO event is a first for A&F and really set the tone for the week," he says "While I would love to attend a ton of shows, this is actually one of the busiest sales weeks for me. Some of our most special pieces sell to designers and buyers for design inspiration, so I have to be available for private appointments throughout the week."
Even with a busy schedule, Quiles hopes to get out and see what's new. "While QP & Monty is a vintage lifestyle emporium, I especially take pride in my men’s haberdashery section, so I like to keep an eye on what’s trending in the media. However, I must say what I see at 3rd Ward and among our customers at the market is generally way ahead of the curve."
