If you were planning on using some old t-shirts as rags or just bottom-of-the-dresser-drawer fluff, you might want to hang on a couple more weeks.
Starting April 13, all Barneys stores will accept all those "vintage" tees from Urban you bought when you first started school, and hand them over to Loomstate so Rogan Gregory can turn them all into a way cooler limited-edition t-shirt collection to be sold exclusively at Barneys for the holidays. Proceeds will benefit 1% for the Planet, and the whole thing is sponsored by the Sundance Channel.
If it strikes you as a rip-off to return to Barneys after eight months and buy back your own old stuff (mixed with a bunch of other people's old stuff), take comfort in that you'll receive a 20% discount on the line (and on other Loomstate) for exactly fifteen days in April.
And if the whole thing strikes you as a little too cool for green, you could at least show up to the kick off event at Barneys on the 22nd to be DJ'ed by, of course, Paul Sevigny.

is this Brett Lally's from Bourne's doing? I know she's involved in Loomstate somehow... I LOVE her work... it's all so well-made and classic. Anyone know if Bourne is even still around? Haven't seen it at the boutique here that carries it.
