Barney's Financial Roller-coaster
Good news for Barneys New York came last week when they announced sales had risen 7% for the month of October when compared to last year. For the month of September the company posted a 9% loss when compared to the same time last year. Unlike last year when retailers were slashing prices up to 75% off in early November this year retailers like Barneys New York are holding off on markdowns. Barneys reports that the top performing stores include their flagships in Chicago, New York, and Beverly Hills.

Fueled by re-inventing the fit of its jeans and producing a tailored look, Gap posted a 25% profit. Its been a busy year at Gap, not only is it currently setting it sight on new Asian markets, but its collaborating left and right. For the past few seasons Pierre Hardy has been the mastermind behind their designer shoes, aside from Gap he creates footwear for Balenciaga and most recently Stella Mccartney created a collection for Gap Kids which sold out in many stores. Gap's third quarter profits totaled $307 million.

News comes today via WWD that Phoebe Philo's short time at Celine is already having a great effect on the brand. The brand which in years past was struggling, and at a point was almost sold by LVMH is now thriving. Celine last season was only carried in its boutiques and at Nordstrom, for spring its expanding to Barneys, Saks, Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus amongst others. Although the spring collection was not the first offering from Philo for Celine, the cruise collection she did prior to spring has already had certain pieces sell out.

Celine Spring Summer 2010
NY Mag
One of the best collections for spring came from Celine, of course the credit has to be given to Phoebe Philo for giving the brand a breath of fresh air. Its super minimal but with such exquisite detailing and clean lines that incorporative such luxurious materials(mostly leather). If any woman wants to invest in classics for spring I say go the Celine route.

AlexWang Trunk Show @ Barneys
It was a fun weekend, got to check out the Spring Summer10 Alexander Wang collection at Barneys New York in Chicago. He talked about the collection and the upcoming mens line which will launch in January, super humble person gave me advice on my career. Can't wait to shop the mens collection. Wish I had taken pictures of the collection, but the SAs were kinda intimidating, the shoes were that much more amazing in person. By the way don't mind how terrible I look. He also took pictures with my sister and friend.
