The Story | This cummerbund design was named after Bostic Pond where Carew Rice was born, south of Allendale, South Carolina. Carew Rice was best known for his silhouette art which we honor with our Carew and Rice bow ties. We've taken over 2 years to develop and perfect another classic statement piece: the feather cummerbund. Each piece takes about 15 hours of labor right here in our Charleston SC studio. Using a technique similar to our bow ties, goose and turkey feathers are laid down a specific way to adhere to a 4 panel pattern. Product Details | We hand stitch individual ribbing for a segmented look using a high quality grosgrain cloth and silk linen backing. 24.5" long x 5.5" high not including adjustable elastic bands with hook closures. Fits as is up to 45" around waist with extra seam allowance on both sides for tailored expansion if needed. We keep our eye on detail, history, and tradition. Our grosgrain cloth is a perfect combination of durability (does not wear as easily as satin), understated elegance, and an homage to classic tailoring and formal attire. Our grosgrain cloth's texture and matte finish provide another fine and thoughtful detail on this one-of-a kind statement piece for your next formal event. Pairings | Pairs well with the Rice, Original, or Slate bow tie designs or can be worn on its own. Packaged with Care | Each Bostic cummerbund comes packaged in a custom made wooden storage box wrapped in natural linen and hand branded.
