Rap Titan Jay Z has become increasingly well-known for his ventures outside of Hip Hop, and he plans on adding another notch to his entrepreneurial belt this holiday season thanks to a collaboration with high-end retailer Barneys.
Titled “A New York Holiday,” the partnership between Jay Z and Barneys will bring about limited edition products to the retailer and interactive window displays for the holiday season.
“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,” Jay Z said in a statement. “Everything that encompasses ‘A 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.”
As one of a number of luxury retailers in New York, Barneys’ “A New York Holiday” collaboration with Jay Z will include exclusive, limited-edition pieces designed by a number of top fashion houses, including Balenciaga, Lanvin and The Elder Statesman.
