Jim Jones, Dwayne Bacon and more walk Grungy Gentleman's New York Fashion Week SS20 runway show on June 5, 2019 at Slate NYC. Grungy Gentleman's six stripe track suits and graphic t-shirts shined on the catwalk. As the Grungy Gentleman brand matures we are taking calculated risks with color while still maintaining our masculine identity that we are known for. For example, this season we created a weather map inspired fabrication that was inserted as a chevron shape accent into our apparel.

Fashion and football? Yes, please! In one of Susannah Collins favorite episodes of MLS BTW yet, she had the opportunity to combine two of her favorite things with a little help from her friends at New York City FC and the New York Red Bulls. Susannah has lived in NYC for quite some time but somehow, she has never experienced Fashion Week. Well, that all changed when she recruited Alex Ring, Sean Davis, and Tim Parker to join her on this fashion adventure. Susannah put her agent hat on and escorted Sean and Tim to a fitting for the Grungy Gentlemen fashion show that they would be walking in. Soccer players as models! Sign me up! The guys were a little nervous. But once they were kitted out in their swag and Susannah coached them on their runway walk, they were downright pumped. And while they would never admit it, she thinks they quite enjoyed their time in the hair and makeup chair. Just saying. Unlike her experience with Alex Ring, the Grungy Gentleman show was everything she imagined Fashion Week would be; cool venue, beautiful people, and hey! An actual catwalk! She was like a proud parent watching Sean and Tim own that runway in their athleisure wear. And even though Sean might have cracked a small smile when he heard our cheers, breaking model protocol, their performance was spotless. We raised a few glasses of Heineken post-show to their catwalk debut and she could tell they were buzzing. And wanted to do it again, haha. And if for some reason the soccer thing doesn’t work out for these guys, she thinks they definitely have a future in fashion. Susannah only charges a small agents fee, LOL.
