The Art of Dressing Well

There were flash thunderstorms and floods of fashion Thursday night when Instructions Apparel fans were packing the lounge at Ping Pong Dim Sum.  

Sneaking a peek at the clothier’s new fall line – and scoring complimentary shoe shines – men (and the stylish women who love them) braved the downpour to get their dapper on… complete with tie-tying demonstrations and cognac cocktails. 
As a nod to DC, the presentation featured trends like “The Georgetown, “The Casual K Street,” “The U-Street,” and the “GQ,” along with their respective reputations for attire.
