On behalf of both the Tisbury and the Edgartown School eighth grade classes I would like to thank Vineyard Vines of Edgartown for hosting their Shop for a Cause events. On two separate days Vineyard Vines offered shoppers a discount, while giving a portion of their sales to each eighth grade class, respectively. Vineyard Vines offered food, fun and holiday cheer to shoppers while helping Island youth realize their dreams of a trip to Washington, D.C. in the spring.

Vineyard Vines Spread

A second Island Vineyard Vines retail store is opening, adding an Oak Bluffs location to its Edgartown location. The new store, at 56 Narragansett avenue, will have complete offerings for men, women and children along with some exclusive Vineyard and Oak Bluffs-specific apparel. Ian Murray, chief executive and cofounder with his brother, Shep, said, “We hope Islanders and visitors alike will come ... and we’re optimistic for a great season for everyone on the Vineyard.”

Already put away your royal wedding hat? Well, no matter, because tomorrow when the greatest two minutes in sports occurs at that annual sporting event which is simultaneously a fashion event — that is, the Kentucky Derby — Vineyard style is officially part of it: Vineyard Vines has been exclusively named as the “official style of the Kentucky Derby.”

Brothers Shep and Ian Murray, chief executives and cofounders of Vineyard Vines, have a multiyear licensing partnership with Churchill Downs Racetrack, where the Derby is run.
