Wilkes Bashford opened his first store in Union Square in 1966 and currently also has a store in Palo Alto, a suburb about 30 minutes from downtown.  For over 40 years, he has offered the finest quality men’s and women’s merchandise available to the Bay Area’s most discerning customers.

We have long been acquainted with Wilkes, work with many of the same world-renowned designers and share a similar aesthetic as well as a like commitment to impeccable customer service and community involvement.  Our vendors are supportive of this merger.

“Mitchells’ retail philosophy merges family-oriented service with modern business principles. We look forward to continuing our long and successful relationship with the Mitchell family in their new venture with Wilkes Bashford,” said Todd Barrato, President of Brioni North America.

“With this move the legacy of this historic specialty store will be continued by a family that will truly respect their values of luxury retail,” said Brunello Cucinelli.

“Ermenegildo Zegna is thrilled to see two of our industry’s most important specialty store retailers coming together.  We believe that the combination of Mitchells, with their renowned customer service and retailing expertise, and Wilkes Bashford, with its prestige and history as one of the nation’s finest specialty stores, is an ideal fit.  I’m sure the customers in the San Francisco Bay Area will benefit, as will our industry” – Robert Ackerman, President & CEO, North America.

You all can be assured while we start a new chapter in our company’s history that we remain 100% committed to Mitchells / Richards / Marshs and this partnership will only strengthen our ability to bring you the finest quality men’s and women’s merchandise available…now on both coasts!

Warmest regards,

The entire Mitchell Family

Lunch was followed by a speech by Cucinelli about his warm relationship with the Mitchell family. Mr. Cucinelli spoke eloquently about his passion for giving back and how people buying his clothes enables him to support some wonderful initiatives in Italy that are close to his heart. (Read more here.) Mr. Cucinelli’s philosophy on family and community parallels that of the Mitchell family and has long strengthened the business and personal relationship between the two families.

It was a beautiful afternoon, literally and figuratively, despite torrential rain outside. We thank the many dedicated Cucinelli aficionados that ventured out!

We had to stop taking RSVPs a week before the event and the place was packed. Divine food by Match Restaurant, sinful cocktails by the Loft and must-have fashions by Mitchells / Richards was a recipe for success. With the doors wide open, traffic on the street was at a standstill as models presented a live exhibition of the best of fall from such designers as Theory, Vince, Catherine Malandrino, DVF, Charles Chang Lima, Michael Kors, Dolce, Brunello Cucinelli and more.

All of us greatly thank Matt and Scott — the owners of Match and the Loft — for co-hosting the event with us.

The word at the end of the night? We need to create a “Step Into Spring” Event!
