- Subject: RFI: Irish Clothier in NY State?
- Lines: 34
-
- Sorry to take up bandwidth, but a friend of mine has asked for some help
- in procuring a special Christmas gift for his expectant wife. Here's
- his request:
-
- >I am looking for the name of an Irish clothier that specializes in women's
- >clothing, most especially nightgowns. I know they exist, because i was
- >at one of their outlets in New York State over the summer. The reason i
- >ask, is because i forgot the name, and am interested in trying to do some
- >mailorder business with them (Christmas gift for [wife]).
- >
- >The reason i liked this places was that they make nice, long, all-cotton
- >nightgowns that look comfortable, and have no waistline, so would be
- >very comfortable for a pregnant lady. They were very pretty, mostly white
- >with buttons and lace and other neo-Victorian stylings.
- >
- >Any help would be much appreciated. The difficulty is to go looking
- >whithout [wife] knowing what i am doing - (otherwise it spoils the surprise).
- >
- >I hope you find this strange request at least humorous, even if you
- >(like me) have little clue as to were to turn for information. Sometimes
- >i could really kick myself for not getting the store's business card.
- >(It really is a chain, something on the order of Laura Ashley, but on a
- >smaller scale - and very Irish.)
-
- If anyone knows of such a place, what their name might be, whether or
- not they do take mail orders, etc., please email me or or my friend
- directly (frezza@ee.pitt.edu). I'll forward posted responses to him as
- well.
-
- Thanks in advance for any help!
