But they are just the main combatants. On the sidelines are a host of interested parties MONDAY, JUNE 30, 2014 $3.00 WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY Q Q — from lenders such as Lion Capital, which is owed $10 million, to would-be investors licking their chops at a brand that they believe should be much bigger and profitable. One financial player who took a look at American Apparel said there’s plenty of opportunity to improve the business. Inventories, for instance, could turn much quicker. “Everyone sees the quality of the brand,” said the source, who described Charney was “a very, very tal- ented merchant,” but said he had become a one-man band, personally overseeing the company’s 249 stores. “American Apparel, as a brand, should be big abroad,” the source said, noting it could do that and maintain it’s U.S.-based production philosophy. But how the brand develops from here depends on who’s in the driver’s seat. Summer The company scrambled over the weekend to set up a stockholder rights plan, or poison pill, to prevent ousted Charney from regaining control of the firm by accumulating more stock. Charney — a lightening rod libertine who was sidelined as president, chief executive officer and Lovin’ chairman for alleged misconduct — already owns 27.2 percent of the company, or 47.2 million shares. PARIS — Hedi Slimane looked back And on Wednesday he quietly inked a deal that to the Summer of Love for his spring would have Standard General buy at least 10 percent of the company’s stock and then loan Charney the Saint Laurent men’s collection — and money to acquire the stake. along the way encapsulated some of The New York-based Standard focuses on “com- the key trends of the season, including panies with complex capital structures that are un- bomber jackets, as seen dergoing dramatic change.” And American Apparel SEE PAGE 9 in this embroidered model; graphic prints, and a SPRING 2015 Forever 21 Looking strong return of denim.

LOS ANGELES — Don Chang is plotting a dramatic expansion for Forever 21. The founder and chief executive officer of the fast-fashion chain, based here, told WWD his “ulti- mate goal is to double the size of our company with- in the next three years,” giving it a footprint of 1,200 doors globally. And the company’s newest concept, F21 Red, could be key to that ambitious plan. Last month, Forever 21 launched the banner at the Azalea Shopping Center in South Gate, Calif., a working-class community about 20 miles south of here. The 18,000-square-foot store targets a value-orient- ed customer with a deeper selection of the Forever 21’s core items at seemingly sharper price points. The move surprised many analysts and retail experts, who questioned how the company would make its margins on $1.80 camisoles, $3.80 tank tops, $4.80 bikinis and denim starting at $7.80. “Are they doing this as a loss leader to take mar- ket share and trade the girl up, or are they that big and have such buying power that they can work on such razor-thin margins?” asked Liz Pierce, senior re- search analyst at Ascendiant Capital Markets. The answer might be both. Chang — who is known for being famously tight-lipped on the company’s plans — said the price points at F21 Red are actu- ally the same as those at Forever 21. It’s a wider PHOTO BY GIOVANNI GIANNONI assortment that is the secret sauce for the concept.

Not only did he modernize women’s closets—most importantly introducing pants as essentials—but his extraordinary eye and technique allowed every shape and size to wear his clothes. “My job is to work for women,” he said. “Not only mannequins, beautiful women, or rich women. But all women.” True, he dressed the swans, as Truman Capote called the rarefied group of glamorous socialites such as Marella Agnelli and Nan Kempner, and the stars, such as Lauren Bacall and Catherine Deneuve, but he also gave tremendous happiness to his unknown clients across the world. Whatever the occasion, there was always a sense of being able to “count on Yves.” It was small wonder that British Vogue often called him “The Saint” because in his 40-year career women felt protected and almost blessed wearing his designs.

  • Packing for Comfort and Style While Traveling for Business Industry: Content Type: and Matched to Create On-The-Go Outfits
    Please Note: This document is a Fire&Spark content marketing writing sample. Content Type: Shopping Guide Industry: Apparel, Travel Packing for Comfort and Style While Traveling for Business At some point in her career, every working woman is going to be a business traveler. It might be a sales meeting or a big industry trade event. It might be a few towns over, or on the other side of the world. She might have to drive, or fly, or take a train. But Packing for Comfort and Style While Traveling Business as diverse as business trips can be, there is one constant: the need for a chic, stylish travel wardrobe. No woman wants to show up at her destination looking wrinkled or frumpy. And she certainly doesn’t want to appear as if she got dressed two decades ago. The trick is to find fashion-forward pieces that are light weight, wrinkle free, and can be easily mixed and matched to create perfect on-the-go outfits. 1 For over a decade, Anatomie has delighted chic jetsetters worldwide with stylish, wrinkle-free travel clothes for women. Here are a few absolute essentials that every woman should have when packing for a business trip: The Business Travel Pant Whether it’s to wear on the plane, and then jump right into the first meeting looking like you just came off the runway, or to pair with a great jacket for that evening dinner party with clients, the right pair of travel pants is a key staple of the modern woman’s travel wardrobe.
