The Pool Where Churchill Swam

Our new Scattergood designs are featured at the pool where Winston Churchill swam, sans his famous top hat, when he visited Eleanor Roosevelt’s cottage in Hyde Park, New York.

Alliances were discussed as the world sought unity. Eleanor’s humble idyll and gracious hospitality helped bring about that world peace.

We celebrate Eleanor’s work and words about unity and peace in our new collection, shown above in our new client favourites, the Scattergood designs, featured in our new Unity palette and weaves.

The designs’ intentions — to scatter good wherever you go — tip a hat to the historic meetings that took place at Eleanor’s cottage where world leaders determined how to scatter good worldwide.

What we choose to wear each day is a declaration. What will your declaration be?

Find your voice in the new Ivey Abitz Look Book. Your declaration, in the form of bespoke garments, will be made just for you in New York and shipped in a few short weeks.

A Sign of Hope

Just When We Need it Most

We are fortunate to have a dear neighbour here in New York named Bruce. He invites us over often for the best home-cooked meals. But nowadays we are all taking social distancing very seriously. No meals together for the foreseeable future. He still surprises us by leaving at our doorstep treats and bouquets of flowers from his masterful garden. Bruce is an exemplary neighbour indeed.

Recently, he saw us leaving our house to take one of our dogs to an emergency veterinarian. He normally runs over to help in any way he can. This time, to honour the social distancing mandates, he ran out from his carriage house, stopped at the end of his drive, and held up this sign as we drove by (pictured above).

A sign of hope, just when we need it most.

Wishing you good health and hope,

-Cynthia and Josh Ivey Abitz

New Spring 2020 Collection Coming Soon

Cynthia and Joshua Ivey Abitz in the Ivey Abitz Studio F - F is for fabric

Ivey Abitz is open for business, and we are diligently working on the next collection.

When we came up with our business model decades ago, we wanted to live literally next door to our work so that we did not have to spend time commuting. Not only is this more time efficient, it also saves on car emissions and gas. It allows us to adopt rescue dogs in need and tend to their care. This setup is beneficial during snowstorms and other weather related shutdowns. And it is currently proving to be beneficial during this unforeseen time to avoid the spread of the coronavirus. We are comfortably working in our studio, just north of Manhattan, like we normally do.

Our tailors are all working in their satellite studios nearby, sewing as usual. Current bespoke orders are being made on time or ahead of schedule. We are all following the recommended social distancing during this time and dropping things off to one another at our doorsteps. Our tailors are admitted introverts, and some tell us they don’t mind this additional alone time at all. We miss seeing them, but being sensitive to CDC guidelines is imperative to stop the virus in its tracks.

We will debut the new Spring/Summer 2020 Collection in the coming days. Ivey Abitz designs embody the concepts of thoughtful self-care alongside mindful choices that impact the entire globe, and this seems more relevant now than ever before. So, we continue with our calling to create hopeful designs and ethically made clothing. We hope that Ivey Abitz wearable art will be a ray of abundantly hopeful light, just when we all need it most.

May we all be kind to ourselves and kind to one another. We’ll be in touch again soon for the debut. Onward and upward!

With gratitude,

Cynthia and Josh Ivey Abitz
