NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 01/12/07 -- Total Luxury Group, Inc. (OTCBB: TLEI) is
pleased to announce the commencement of the Cabral Clothing Company sales
and marketing campaign for the 07' Fall collection of designer menswear
label, GC by Cabral. The company will be featured in upcoming issues of
top industry publications and will be exhibiting at the PROJECT tradeshow
in Las Vegas, Nevada next month. "The new collection will display looks
that represent a feeling of a city by the shore," states Garth Cabral, who
is the creative force behind the label that bares his name. With the use of
mature colors in darks and tonals, this extended season will carry the
"Garth Cabral" brand wearer from fall thru winter in styles that can be
layered progressively over the entire season.
Garth Cabral, a former Model/Surfer turned fashion designer, launched his
own menswear label GC by Garth Cabral in 2004. Known for high fashion and
custom fabrications, Cabral apparel has been widely accepted at upscale
retailers and Specialty Boutiques nationwide, including Lisa Kline, Urban
Outfitters and Up Against the Wall to name a few. With sales figures
approaching $3 million in its initial launch, the label can be best
described as a "new movement" in men's fashion. By focusing on intricate
details, original graphic design, extraordinary garment construction and
improved fabric quality, Cabral has been able to transform his designs into
a brilliant assortment of style for today's fashion forward man.

Chic, Beverly Hills-based retailer Lisa Kline was quoted as saying, "They
create the best board shorts and we look forward to working with them
again."
Scott Moore, founder and owner of Urban Body retail stores, says, "I never
had a label take off so quickly. Cabral definitely has a following."
Gustavo Serrano, owner of B'ZAR, said, "Cabral is a brand that many people

guys."

Cabral brings a designer look and fit to the market that still reflects the
