Rochas要關門了!!!
天啊 最近是怎樣 Phoebe Philo離開Chloe Roland Mouret也出走 現在Rochas要停止營業了 老闆說幸好她有先買上季的褲裝 獨一無二
Despite critical acclaim for its designer Olivier Theyskens, the Rochas fashion house is to be shuttered, WWD has learned.
Procter & Gamble -- owner of the business -- met with workers here today with a proposal to cease operations, according to an industry source. P&G, which owns and will continue producing fragrances under the Rochas banner, does not consider fashion its core business, the source said. Under French law, numerous steps need to be taken in order to close down such a business. The procedure can take months. About 30 Rochas employees will be affected.
The Rochas fall/winter ready-to-wear collection will continue to be shipped, the industry source said. Retailers have not yet been informed of the Rochas fashion closure.
P&G inherited Rochas -- both its fashion and fragrance arms -- in 2003, when P&G acquired Wella`s portfolio.
According to the industry source, P&G had tried to license out the Rochas fashion business, but there was only interest in outright acquisitions of the Rochas fashion and fragrance brands together.
The move will mark the end of three years of acclaim for Theyskens, who made Rochas one of the most anticipated shows of Paris fashion week. Earlier this year, he was crowned International Designer of the Year by the CFDA. (WWD)
