MILAN, Apr 8, 2005/ FW/ --- Neil Barrett is due to open the newest of his mono-brand stores in Umeda Osaka, Japan at the end of April.
With a 36% growth rate worldwide over the last year alone, the Japanese market continues to expand strongly.
The second store in Japan, after the Tokyo flagship store, it comes at a time when other corners are planned for Barrett in both Tokyo and Osaka.
Barrett who currently dresses Hollywood heartthrobs Brad Pitt and Kirsten Dunst has gone from strength to strength as he expands in Asia.
British by birth, Neil Barret trained under Miuccia Prada before launching his own label in 1998.
Inventive and imaginative, he designs clothes that are hip and wearable. What you see on the runway can easily be displayed on a rack on the sales floor.
Neil Barrett debuted on the Milan catwalk during the Fall 2002 season, and has continued to show in Milan since then.
In September 2003, the designer was signed as Creative Director for a new series of Puma Collections, wherein the latest collection was shown during the “96 Hours” presentation that was shown in Milan during the menswear season in January.
