Kate Moss/Topshop Collection At Barneys A Total Joke: Pt 2
Wednesday, May 9, 2007, by Leslie Price
Take a good, long look at this display because the clothes on those mannequins were the only Kate Moss for Topshop offerings available at the Barneys Co-op in Chelsea. That's right, out of the whole collection, the store had tank tops (white, black, green and pink; $24 a pop), skinny jeans ($106), black cropped jackets with raw-edged hems ($165) and one "dress" which looked more like a shirt (price NA since they were all grabbed up immediately). Not exactly cheap chic. The clothes were arranged on one small rack and a table, pictured below.
The tank top was low cut and not super flattering. The material was nice though; it felt almost silky. But, come on, $24?
A button popped off immediately. That's great craftsmanship for $165. This was cut ridiculously small.
