Amanda Brooks Exits Barneys!

 

Amanda Brooks

Barneys New York has been stirring quite the buzz around the fashion industry lately but I think the biggest shock was that fashion director Amanda Brooks gave her resignation from the brand. She said she will be relocating to England with her husband and children.

I completely understand her decision and she’s built up the brand so much I can’t help but wonder…how will this change affect Barneys now? I’m sure if they hire within, it will be the same Barneys we know and love but if they hire outside of the company I am interested to see exactly where they find the person and what credentials they come with. I am slowly noticing a trend that more and more fashion forward companies are hiring previous Apple Inc. employees. So I am going to predict that Barneys will do the same?!! Only time will tell but, I will keep you updated!
