Jay Z is continuing to do things big by partnering with Lux store Barneys for a limited multi-clothing label line called “A New York Holiday.”
The line features pieces from fashion houses include Lanvin (tailored jacket), Balenciaga (black leather backpack), Balmain (square-print scarf), Proenza Schouler (black leather duffel) and Rick Owens (hoodie). Each house worked with Hov on originals. (That’s big friends).
The section of the Barneys flagships in New York, Beverly Hills, San Francisco, Boston and Chicago (as well as their website) where the clothes will be is called BNY SCC Gallery (Barneys New York and Shawn Corey Carter).
“With this project, Barneys New York and I were able to take the slickness, energy and innovation of New York City and translate that into quality, timeless pieces,” Hov told WWD.
“Everything that encompasses ‘New York Holiday’– the items chosen, the amazing designers that participated, the windows, the design of the BNY SCC Gallery — represents a perfect example of a unique and groundbreaking collaboration that I hope demonstrates how inspiring New York has been to me.”
“A New York Holiday” goes on sale November 20 and wraps January 3.
This guy is so big he really just does music as a hobby. It’s deals like this that put money in his pocket. It is so refreshing to see people evolve and grow as opposed to still hanging in the hood.
