Barrie announces the collaboration
Barrie + Sofia Coppola
Barrie is delighted to announce a collaboration with director Sofia Coppola. This friendly partnership reflects Sofia Coppola’s own appreciation of Barrie’s cashmere pieces, with their mix of creativity and enduring quality. The collection, conceived by Barrie creative director Augustin Dol-Maillot, reflects Sofia’s own unique style, offering the ideal wardrobe for work, travel, and leisure.
Barrie creative director Augustin Dol-Maillot states: “I’ve always been fascinated by Sofia’s precision in terms of looks and attitude. She always finds the perfect balance between timeless pieces and a modern silhouette. The collaboration seeks to achieve this same effect by focusing on the tiny details that transform apparently simple pieces to make them timeless and desirable at the same time. I have always considered Sofia’s elegance to have that special touch which makes it relaxed and comfortable, yet so stylish. To me, this is exactly what the Barrie DNA is made of, and this collaboration is the dream opportunity to embody that.”
Sofia Coppola states: “I’m a big fan of Barrie, I love the great quality of their cashmere knitwear that I wear over and over again. Their pieces are really timeless, easy, with beautiful details. It was so fun to work with Augustin and the Barrie team and imagine my dream pieces: the idea of a travel wardrobe that works together, that is cozy and chic. I love what Barrie has done, I will be living in them this winter!”
Launching in early November 2023, the capsule collection will be available from Barrie’s own boutiques and website barrie.com (with international delivery), as well as through selected retailers worldwide.
