Found this in our 72-year old store at University Place yesterday. I still can’t over the 2-letter, 5-digit phone number! According to Wikipedia these were adopted starting in the 1930s, but it’s hard to imagine an era when those were enough numbers for New York City. We’re certainly come a long way since whenever this [...]
. . Just saw this bizarre wedding gown care label. Another member of the Association of Wedding Gown Specialists forwarded it to me this morning. I’ve heard of materials that are combustable when machine-dried before, but gowns exploding in the wash is a new one for me! Remember… care labels are required by the FTC, [...]

Running with the Brides Last Friday, we at Meurice were privileged to work at Filene’s Basement in Union Square during a little event called Running of the Brides.
