Raf Simons設計的女裝，看起來簡單又瀟灑，我喜歡這件->
昨天讀到Prada在上週宣佈，已同意把Jil Sander 賣給private equity firm Change Capital Partners.
Since buying the company in September 1999, Prada has put Jil Sander through a comprehensive restructuring plan which resulted in its founder, who launched the label in 1975, being replaced by Belgian designer Raf Simons last summer. It is thought to be on track to break even this year, with a total revenue forecast in the region of £95 million. "As we focus on the development of the Prada and Miu Miu brands, I am certain that Change Capital Partners will be able to provide the necessary investment to further grow the Jil Sander business," Bertelli said this morning. "We have transformed the company with the restructuring plan led by [ceo] Gian Giacomo Ferraris, and we have started a new creative phase with the recent arrival of Raf Simons. I wish them and their teams a very successful future and look forward to continuing to collaborate in various areas of product development and manufacturing." Stephan Lobmeyr, managing director of Change Capital Partners, said it hoped to combine Jil Sander`s creative talent and expertise with its own experience of branded goods, retail and private equity. "Jil Sander has great potential for growth, and we are committed to reaching our ambitious goals," said Ferraris. "I`d like to thank our shareholders and all our employees for their support during the restructuring phase." (February 23 2006, AM)
