a bunch of real knockouts at barneys

If you found yourself on the fourth floor of Barneys last night and the people surrounding you looked a little less fashion-y than usual, you can thank Reed Krakoff. Coach hosted a party amid the Armani shearlings and Burberry sweaters to celebrate the launch of Krakoff’s new book, Fighter: The Fighters of the UFC, some of whom were present and hulking over the crowd. “I’m completely addicted. This really is an incredible sport, and these guys are true athletes,” gushed avowed UFC fan Mandy Moore, who was recently inspired to learn jujitsu. “It’s not just about boxing. It might not seem like it, but this is really a thinking man’s sport.” And why did this group of extreme athletes decide to do a book with a Prada-wearing fashion executive? “F the traditionalists, all they care about is college football,” replied UFC president Dana White. “But Reed? He really respects what we do.”
