See Alaïa’s Special Anniversary Capsule Collection For Barneys New York
Long before Cher Horowitz, Barney’s New York was the first retailer to bring Azzedine Alaïa‘s designs to the United States in the ’80s, with 2017 marking the 35th anniversary of the retail relationship. And what better way to celebrate than with some brand new Alaïa dresses? To commemorate the milestone, Alaïa himself has designer an exclusive 8 piece capsule collection for Barneys New York. The collection takes inspiration from the house’s archives, including vintage advertisements and editorial images from previous collections dating back to the 1980s. The resulting pieces range from a classic fit n’flare style, which will sell for $2050, to an embroidered cocktail frock going for $13,400. The pieces are done in Alaïa’s signature color palette of red, black, and white, with an emphasis on body-conscious silhouettes done in luxe knits. Alongside the capsule collection, which are now available at select Barneys New York stores, the store will also be launching two exclusive handbag styles from the brand, and will now offer Alaïa shoes and bags online at Barneys.com.
