BOYS KEEP SWINGING
Defy the testosterone driven hordes, grease back your hair and follow Myf Shepherd down the rabbit hole to a place where style is timeless and David Bowie rules.
Balance your schoolgirl past with your bad girl present. Take a swing at The Blonds that caught your eye. Stomp through city streets like Doc Marten prescribed.
Witness the psychedelic sixties, swinging seventies, corporate eighties and grungy nineties, splashed across the walls of Max Fish in the Lower East Side. Tonight, you’ll have a million knockouts in tow.
