Border Patrol

Outlaws of the Border Clothing Launches

Blotter (06/02/09): Agents received an anonymous tip for Outlaws of the Border.

They glossed over 251 pounds of cocaine valued at $8,042,880 and arrested their eyes on the first collection of modern, structural pieces from a design-centered couple’s new clothing and record label.

When presented for inspection, it was discovered that Lindsay Jones worked for Zac Posen, Iisli, and Marc Jacobs before creating her own line. Husband and co-conspirator Gautier Pellegrin manages the label’s indie bands and original art pieces.

While conducting patrol duties, agents seized Short Bread shorts; cropped trouser pants with (Black Nasty) suspenders; vests; and several long, billowing dresses with a Romanesque shape (everything in white, black, or periwinkle linen). A self-proclaimed dandy wearing one of the skinny ties was also taken into custody.

In a possible trend, all attempts at bribery and smuggling have been thwarted.

Available at Inventory, 237 Lafayette Street, between Prince and Spring Streets (212-226-5292); Collective Hardware, 160 Bowery, between Delancey and Broome Streets. To see styles, bands, and original artwork, go to outlawsoftheborder.com. Trunk Show at Inventory, June 13th, 6-9 p.m.
