CAROL OVERDAHL SHOWING AT BUTCH BLUM
This month we are featuring paintings by Seattle artist Carol Overdahl! Adventurous and multitalented, Overdahl's life has included, among other exciting accomplishments, managing Barney's New York Seattle for 16 years, and ascending Mount Everest and reaching Advanced Base Camp at 21,300 feet!
“I imagine my paintings into existence. I prefer to paint the unseen. I blur the boundaries between sensuality and spirituality-
blending my physical and mystical self. I am a mountain climber. I often use my hands to work the canvas and sometimes the weight of my body. The subject of willpower rivets me and ultimately the subject of personal power
permeates all of my work.”
-Carol Overdahl
A portion of the painting sales go to the Marsha Rivkin Center for Ovarian Cancer Research. Additional works are currently being shown at Marco Two Union Square!

HAMILTON SHIRTS MADE TO MEASURE EVENT
We are very excited to announce our upcoming MTM event with Hamilton Custom Shirtmakers! For 3 days ONLY, this coming Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (October 9, 10, and 11), Hamilton will include with every order one free shirt, valued between $295 and $395**. Some features of the Hamilton Shirt:
* Over 400 Swiss and Italian fabrics available, in dress and casual styles.
* "Floating" collar and cuffs are made without interfacing (the 'glue' that holds most dress shirts together) so there is little or no shrinkage- wash and wear without getting a tight collar!
* Sample sizes from 14.5-19 are available in store, so custom fitting is a breeze...simply select a try-on shirt, specify length of sleeves and tails, and size of collar.
* Personalize your shirt with eight different collar styles, six different cuff styles, and a variety of additional extras to make your shirt really pop.
Please call 206-622-5760 or email nichole@BUTCHBLUM.com to RSVP for this event, which is by appointment only. Preview fabrics available at www.hamiltonshirts.com
**Of equal or lesser value, enquire for details.

ONE SUIT, 3 LOOKS
In today's economy, clients are looking for the best value for their money, and here at Butch Blum, we strive to provide! Below are three different outfits, put together with our new Coppley "Bergamo" suit- made in Ontario Canada, with fabric by Loro Piana!
As a suit, this piece is an excellent buy...the subtle houndstooth provides interest without being showy, and the neutral color and medium weight fabric is a year-round must!
As you can see, the suit jacket is short and fitted enough to be a great pair with a cool pair of jeans and a casual sweater vest.
For a more robust look, pair the jacket with a pair of heavy tweed pants, a bold stripe shirt and a necktie with pizazz! Remember, as long as the jacket is cut correctly, there is no reason not to pair a suit coat with a contrasting pant.
