Despite Saturday’s snowstorm — which ultimately should not have a major impact on sales — economists expect a solid holiday. That, coupled with election-year politics, is likely to give the economy a strong start in 2004, but consumers won’t allow it to carry into 2005, experts say, unless there’s real See Long, Page13 PHOTO BY JOHN AQUINO; MODEL: MARIYA SHVETSOVA/SUPREME; HAIR AND MAKEUP BY MATEO FOR WARREN TRICOMI; STYLED BY KIM FRIDAY TRICOMI; STYLED BY FOR WARREN MATEO HAIR AND MAKEUP BY SHVETSOVA/SUPREME; JOHN AQUINO; MODEL: MARIYA PHOTO BY 2 WWD, MONDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2003 WWDMONDAY Tourists Help Salvage Snowy Sales Accessories/Innerwear/Legwear Saturday and we’re extremely FASHION By Ross Tucker A look at what’s going on in the world of young talent, through the eyes of and Katherine Bowers busy now,” said the store manag- er, who identified herself as 6 Charlotte Martin, Zac Posen and Paul Berman of 30 Vandam.

The 8-year-old company recently opened a San Francisco store, the fourth of the company’s physical stores. In March, the company opened a pop-up in Miami. In late 2016, it opened a 120,000-square-foot sustainable sewing factory in Vernon, Calif. Its next big step is to expand its category of denim. It won’t be easy. Denim manufacturing does not have a great reputation in environmental circles. There are a small group of denim labels that make eco- friendly jeans. But mainstream producers of denim clothes have been criticized for wasting thousands of gallons of water and using harmful chemicals.

Getting out of a store lease isn’t easy. Most landlords don’t want to break long-term leases, so retailers resort to declaring bankruptcy to be able to walk away from the con- tracts that bind them. Mall owners then end up with very little money in their pockets.
