Gap and Stella McCartney to Launch Kids & Baby Collection

Collection Will Be Carried in Stores and Online in November 2009
SAN FRANCISCO--(Business Wire)--
GapKids and babyGap, two of the most recognized names in children`s apparel,
announced today plans for a new collection created for Gap by Stella McCartney.
Expected to launch in late 2009, the collection will be carried in select
GapKids and babyGap stores in the United States and Canada, the UK, France and
Ireland, and Japan, as well as online in the US.

"We`re thrilled to have the opportunity to build on successful past
collaborations with a world class design talent like Stella," said Marka Hansen,
President of Gap brand. "I'm looking forward to offering our GapKids and babyGap
customers her unique interpretation of Gap's casual American aesthetic. Her
experience as a parent and designer are sure to delight both kids and parents
alike."

Stella McCartney comments, "For years now I`ve wanted to create a collection for
kids, it`s something I`ve often been asked about. I believe that this one-off
collaboration will be a great way for customers to be able to participate in the
Stella McCartney brand. I believe that kids clothing should be more accessibly
priced, which is particularly important at the moment given the current climate.
It`s really exciting for us to do a boys and girls collection for the first
time."
