BARNEYS NEWEST CO-OP OPENS IN BROOKLYN


NEW YORKOct. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Credited by many in the industry with revolutionizing the contemporary fashion market, Barneys New York is celebrating the 25th anniversary of the CO-OP concept. During the month of October all Barneys stores will participate in the celebration with a special CO-OP mailer, re-designed shopping bag, national print advertising campaign, and elaborate window displays featuring reminiscences about the CO-OP from top designers.
In tandem with the 25th anniversary of CO-OP, Barneys New York has commissioned an extensive array of exclusive merchandise. Twenty-four designers for women, and seventeen designers for men created limited edition pieces including 3.1Phillip LimAlexander Wang, A.L.C., CO-OP brand, Levi's Vintage Clothing, Moleskine, Porter, Rag & Bone, Raleigh Denim, Super, Swash, Vena Cava, VPL and many more. In addition to brand new items, there will also be updated pieces from original designs that debuted at Barneys CO-OP over the years such as a re-issued striped sweater from Rogan and a denim jacket from the first Marc by Marc Jacobs collection. For details on each product in the special CO-OP 25 collection, please visit www.Barneys.com.
Coinciding with the celebration of CO-OP's 25th birthday, Barneys will be opening a new CO-OP in Brooklyn, NY today at 10:00 AM. The 10,000 square foot store on two levels is located in the historic landmark district of Cobble Hill on the border with Boerum Hill and downtown Brooklyn and will carry the entirety of the CO-OP anniversary collection.  
The Barneys CO-OP concept originated in 1985 and is considered to be a mecca for emerging designers looking to break into the industry. Over the years, CO-OP has been the go-to destination for designs that are unique and reflective of individual style.
"When I joined the company 25 years ago the CO-OP was just beginning. It was all about creativity and self-expression, an alternative to the big designer brands. Over the last quarter of a century the CO-OP has become synonymous with a certain New York downtown sensibility. It's always 'downtown' even when it's uptown," said Simon Doonan, Barneys New York's creative director.
There are now 21 Barneys CO-OP stores across the country. With the introduction of the Brooklyn store, New York City shoppers will be able to expand their Barneys CO-OP experience beyond Manhattan.
Transportation to Brooklyn CO-OP:


The newest Barneys CO-OP is located at 194 Atlantic Avenue (Between Court St. and Clinton St.). The closest subway stops are Borough Hall (2, 3, 4 and 5 lines) or Hoyt-Schermerhorn (A, C, G lines).

Maison Martin Margiela Shirt Goes Japanese For World AIDS Day


The charity AIDS T-Shirt has been present in all Maison Martin Margiela collections since Fall/Winter 1994/1995 but this is the first year that the text will be done in Japanese. The shirt says: "There is more action to be done to fight AIDS than to wear this t-shirt but it's a good start." The shirt takes a unique approach to slogan wearing with most of the text printed inside the shirt. The theory behind this is that dialogue is not necessary when the slogan is clearly visible but this shirt encourages the reader to ask the wearer to explain what is written on their T-Shirt.

A percentage of the sales is donated to 'AIDES', a French organization dedicated to fight the HIV virus and take care of patients living with HIV/AIDS. Over the years, 170,000 T-shirts have been sold and brought a contribution of over 700,000 euros to 'AIDES'. In addition to the seasonal English version, the Maison has decided to have a yearly edition every time in a different language for the World AIDS day, starting with Japanese. Created in Paris, sold around the world, worn touching the heart, this limited edition charity AIDS T-shirt will be exclusively available in all Maison Martin Margiela stores. World AIDS Day is December 1.
