NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2008 / FW/ — It is great news all over at Neil Barrett’s. The Milan-based designer recently signed a partnership agreement with PMD Japan for the label’s distribution through its showroom in Tokyo and Osaka effective immediately.

To accelerate the development, a Neil Barrett flagship store is scheduled to be opened in August 2008 in Tokyo at the prestigious Aoyama district. Plans of opening more stores and department store corners over the next few years are also in the works.

Neil Barrett and PMD Japan also are considering other development projects outside of Japan, including the opening of some flagship in other major Asian cities.
