In celebration of National Relaxation Day on August 15, Tommy Bahama has teamed up with Ray’s Hometown Bar on the Lower East Side for a special capsule collection. Known for its motto "Make Life One Long Weekend," Tommy Bahama has designed three signature silk camp shirts and three baseball hats for the occasion.
The collaboration will include two kickoff events and ten happy hours at Ray’s, offering attendees cocktails made with Tommy Bahama spirits. Carlos Quirarte, cofounder of Authentic Hospitality, highlighted that Ray’s has always been a welcoming spot for the community to relax, making the partnership with Tommy Bahama, known for its relaxation-inspired clothing, a perfect fit.
Ray’s designer, Jack Berry, explained that the inspiration came from Tommy Bahama’s patterns, which evoke casual hangouts and the art of a good cocktail. They chose three iconic silk camp shirt styles and added a subtle Ray’s touch. The hats, designed in teal and coral, reference Miami architecture, a central element of the Tommy Bahama brand.
