Agyness Deyn has decided to add another slash to her long title. She’s created a special collection of 11 dresses, knits, scarves, t-shirts and leggings. Selling from $212 – $307 bucks, the collection is part of Barney’s environmental Go Green Go campaign. Proceeds go towards planting trees in Mongolia. The collection looks nothing like Aggy and is pretty boring. Expect to ignore it starting March 13th.

Mackage brought Rock n Roll flair to some amazingly tailored suiting, dresses and outerwear. Designers Elisa Dahan and Eran Elfassy’s collection ran the gauntlet of edge, with body-aware dresses, downtown scenester separates, and great elements of studs and leather. Shoulders followed tradition of other designers previous season and remained sculptural.
My personal fave aspect of this show was how every piece remained independent. While the collection was cohesive, the looks didn’t feel like duplicates.

Never send a gay to do a Martha job. Simon Doonan, creative director of Barney’s is causing quite a stir in the White House after including three questionable ornaments on the Christmas tree. Right-Wingers everywhere prepare outrage.

I’ve always been relatively impressed by the denim variety carried by Barneys New York, and further gaining my stamp of approval is the Barneys Fall 2009 denim catalogue. It’s been a little while since we’ve seen Cole Mohr or Ash Stymest work on anything of substance, let alone work on modeling gig together, but the boys are back in the Fall 2009 mailer and looking better than ever! Really folks, jeans are never going out of style, so if you’re in the market for some new denim, I’d say Barneys is the place to look!

Whoa. This gives a whole new meaning to ‘I wouldn’t be caught dead in that.’ Madison Ave. shoppers were a bit disturbed to see this new Barney’s display…I guess they thought it would be eye-catching, but I think all it did was offend a lot of people. Let the infuriated commenting begin…

Battling the recession with the newest addition to the Comme Des Garçons family is Black Comme des Garçons, a bridge line slated to hit New York and Paris, as well as two-week pop-up shops at Barneys New York and Colette in Paris, on June 22nd! The label, already widely accepted in Seoul, Hong Kong and Japan, was originally created to boost sales during our current economic crisis and is expected to exists as long as the recession does. Designs play it safe with popular silhouettes in checkerboard, gingham, polka-dot and floral prints and range in price from about $90 for tees to $630 for jackets. Not exactly recession ready prices in my books, but hey, Comme Des Garçons, what did you expect?
Thanks WWD!
