The deal, if approved, would put six fashion brands under a single company: Tapestry’s Coach, Kate Spade and Stuart Weitzman, with Capri’s Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors. Yet, in his remarks, Kors described how even legacy brands like his own can struggle and lose shoppers’ interest. Shares of Capri, which includes Michael Kors, reflect the tougher stretch that the designer Kors described. In its most-recent fiscal quarter that ended in late June, Michael Kors’ revenue dropped 14.2% on a reported basis or 13.3% on a constant currency basis compared to the year-ago period. Gennette, who retired early this year, said the department store’s sales got hit because it leaned too heavily on Michael Kors’ brand.

☆ I'm a stylist for 'regular' people. Asking 4 questions can help you hone your sense of fashion.
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-16 | by ( Kelly Burch | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

As a stylist for regular people, I get lots of clients who are caught in a trap created by the fashion industry. The "regular" people — those who aren't wealthy or famous — try so hard to understand the rules of what's stylish, usually set by celebrities and fashion houses. Conveniently for our capitalist society, this also keeps people constantly purchasing new clothes to try to get closer to the arbitrary idea of fashion. It boils down to a simple question: do you like it, or do you not? If you wear clothes that aren't affirming of who you are, it's like opening your mouth to speak but hearing the wrong voice come out.

☆ Designer 'dupes' go mainstream as shoppers choose affordability over luxury. 'It just makes more financial sense,' expert says

From leggings to lip gloss, there's a dupe for almost any brand-name product. Buying a knockoff used to be a consumer's dirty little secret, largely because a "fake" was considered inferior to the real thing, not to mention the economic cost and intellectual property rights infringement. But brand imitators, also known as dupes — short for duplicates — have elbowed their way into the mainstream and are now even cool. "It's not a direct knockoff, it's kind of revising something that's very chic from a designer world into a more accessible product," Walker said. Even when consumers can get the real thing, nearly 33% of adults intentionally purchased a dupe of a premium product at some point, according to a report by Morning Consult.

Burberry, the British luxury brand, on Monday reported falling sales, suspended its dividend and replaced its chief executive, as it grapples with a pullback in spending by consumers on high-end fashion and related goods. Burberry said revenue fell more than 20 percent in its latest quarter, which ended June 29. To bolster its balance sheet, Burberry paused its dividend. The company named Joshua Schulman as its new chief executive, replacing Jonathan Akeroyd, who is leaving the company immediately. The abrupt departure of Mr. Akeroyd, a fashion industry veteran who was previously chief executive of Versace and Alexander McQueen, came less than two and a half years after he was tapped to run Burberry.

☆ Why are luxury brands waging war on the ‘upcycled’ clothing market?
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-13 | by ( Sarah Kent | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +10 min

Editor’s Note: This article was originally published by The Business of Fashion, an editorial partner of CNN Style. The design was upcycled from vintage Chanel scarves by stylist Logan Horne, whose brand, J. Logan Home, specializes in refashioning heritage luxury accessories. Fashion brands' legal claims are varied but ultimately boil down to concerns that third parties are free-riding on brands’ valuable IP in ways that could risk confusing consumers, eroding primary sales and tarnishing or diluting carefully cultivated marks. Some big brands, like Prada, Gucci and indeed Levi’s, have already dabbled with upcycling collections and programs of their own. These days, she says she’s having about a conversation a week with brands interested in exploring collaboration, but the industry moves slowly.
