Victoria Beckham Fashion Collection Stolen

Saturday, December 5th, 2009

victoria-beckham1Victoria Beckham entire spring collection destined for Neiman Marcus in New York has been stolen. The collection estimated to be worth over $600,000.00 consisted of 50 to 75 dresses. Daily Mirror reports: 
A source said: ‘This operation was meticulously planned. The thieves must feel they can make a fortune selling the collection on the black market.
‘Victoria was informed straight away about the incident and was shocked and deeply saddened, although her first priority was the well-being of the driver.’
The collection has seen huge popularity since it launched 18 months ago and counts celebrities including Elle Macpherson, Dannii Minogue, Drew Barrymore and Katherine Jenkins among its fans.

This is really weird, as it is clearly terrible. Chanel, Yves St.Laurent, Dior fashion lines are not stolen and Victoria Beckham’s line is? Do they have better security or did the thieves think her clothes were more sellable ( this is the weird part). In any case we hope Victoria Beckham recovers her attire and the thieves are caught.

FASHION NEWS: JENNIFER LOPEZ CALLS IT QUITS

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

50jl.JPGSeemingly against the trend where every celebrity and their grandmother has jumped on the “designer” bandwagon, Jennifer Lopez is pulling out of the clothing business in the U.S. At least temporarily.

She is closing her fashion line called Sweetface, which sells contemporary sportswear. The brand was sold in the U.S. for six years and the last collection was for Spring, 2009.
“In light of some new company strategies, we have decided to put the Sweetface line on hiatus while we prepare to reintroduce the brand in the near future with new messaging points and an entirely new fashion point of view,” the company said Tuesday.

Jennifer was one of the first celebrities to get into the fashion design business with her JLO brand in 2001. She  still retains her JLO by Jennifer Lopez branded costume jewelry, which Macy’s continues to carry, and the Victoria’s Secret catalogue carries the brand’s shoe collection. Each of those are produced under licensing agreements. The company also continues to do well with fragrances; there have been six scents launched with Coty Inc. to date, and a seventh is due to be introduced later this year.

JLO by Jennifer Lopez junior business was closed in the U.S. in 2007. The collection was distributed outside of the States where the brand continues to perform well.
