Joshua Schulman Leaves Jimmy Choo for Bergdorf Goodman
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: News, Sales,
Joshua Schulman has become president of Bergdorf Goodman. The former head of Jimmy Choo and the Gucci Group admits he is delighted at his new job because he has "always" appreciated the work of the world famous New York department store and its parent company Neiman Marcus.
"I've been a vendor of Bergdorf Goodman and a vendor of the Neiman Marcus Group in my career over the last 20 years. I've always had an enormous appreciation for the culture of Bergdorf Goodman and the Neiman Marcus Group and for their focus on excellence in luxury retail," he told WWD.
Jim Gold, president of speciality retail for the Neiman Marcus Group, added his two decades of experience would bring a new wave of "knowledge" into the sector: "Josh has been around the luxury business for 20 years and although he has been on the wholesale side, he has worked with department stores his whole career and gained an intimate knowledge of what it takes for a large store to work."

Lindsay Lohan Expands Leggings Range
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Sales,
Actress-turned-designer Lindsay Lohan isn’t just making accessories anymore. The House of Emanuel Ungaro creative advisor star is planning to include other items of clothing in her 6126 collection, including jackets, dresses, and trousers in lace, cashmere and leather.
The line is expected to feature 100 pieces, ranging in price, with the most expensive item expected to be a leather jacket. Plans are already underway for further expansion in 2011, with a clothing collection of 150 items and a range of bags, jewelery, shoes and cosmetics under the 6126 brand.
Kristi Kaylor, principal in 6126 LLC in Beverly Hills, told WWD, “We’ve had amazing success with the leggings line. We have a great business with Neiman Marcus and several hundred great specialty stores. DNAM Apparel was the perfect partner to work with 6126 and grow it as a lifestyle brand. We’re launching the full clothing collection next year, and a cosmetics line, handbags, shoes, jewellery in spring 2011. It’ll be a young contemporary price point with contemporary styling. We’re conscious of it in the sense that we have great price points and quality products. The vision is to offer customers something that they don’t have in the marketplace today, items that go back with leggings: blazers, dresses and tops.”

Victoria Beckham Collection Hijacked
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Rumors, Sales, Women, Dresses,
Greatly resembling an outrageous, fictional plot, Victoria Beckham is sadly the victim of grand theft.
Nearly worth $600,000, Beckham’s dress collection (estimated at 50 to 75 pieces) were stolen last Thursday while en route to the airport for delivery to New York.
“Everyone from Madonna to Elle Macpherson has been seen wearing Victoria’s dresses and, as a result, they’ve developed a money-can’t-buy exclusivity about them. This operation was meticulously planned. The thieves must feel they can make a fortune selling the collection on the black market. The lorry was on its way to the airport where the spring/summer collection was to be flown to New York designers Neiman Marcus. After pick-up from Victoria’s London offices, the van was followed to another address,” a source said.
Cameras taped the robbery; however, the thieves’ license plate is too blurry to decipher. The dresses are expected to be remade (each dress reportedly has over 4,000 people on the waiting list).
