Alexander Wang Negotiations With Private Equity Groups Failed To Get "Final Results"

Designer brand Alexander Wang, Thom Browne and Cushnie et Ochs are facing the situation of being abandoned by investors and stop trading.

According to relevant information, the negotiations between Alexander Wang and private Holdings Company General Atlantic have recently become calm, while Thom Browne's Japanese investors are seeking to sell their shares, and Cushnie et Ochs is considered to be finalizing an equity sale with an unknown investor.

Alexander Wang, the most famous brand among the three brands, was thought to be about to reach a deal by the industry this summer.

But according to the latest sources, the company is still a private business.

After Alexander Wang ended his term in the autumn, he reiterated that he would focus on his own brand.

According to Alexander Wang, the brand has sales of about $100 million and has about 25 stores.

Thom Browne, the same name menswear brand designer, is the award-winning designer of the 2006 best fashion designer of the American Fashion Designers Association (CFDA), and entered the final stage of the national design award awarded by the Cooper Hewett National Design Museum.

In addition, he has won the new 2005 star of the international fashion organization and the runner up of the CFDA2005 Fashion Fund Award.

Thom Browne is also a highly concerned designer brand enterprise. If the Japanese big clothing group Cross Company decides to sell two of its shares, it may face a big change in the company's control power, which may bring a shock to the brand. According to the data, most of the Thom Browne shares have been controlled by Cross Company since 2009.

Alexander Wang has been seeking outside for some time.

It is very likely that the industry will sell minority interest to help develop the brand business.

He told WWD in April: "this is definitely an open investment way. Opening capital is undoubtedly a very important part of the next stage of the brand, including supply chain, resources and information technology. These things can help us grow."

If Alexander Wang personal brand and private Holdings Company General Atlantic negotiations can not start again, Alexander Wang will have to find another investment group to provide its expansion needs, without capital to promote growth and development, personal designer brand will face slow growth challenges.

Cushnie et Ochs came from the US fashion women's clothing brand, founded in 2008 by two designers Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs.

Hollow, tight and sexy are the two best designers of the Cushnie et Ochs brand, and are also the symbols of their clothing.

Some sources said that

The sale of Thom Browne shares has been considered, but there seems to be no deal in the sale of Thom Browne shares.

According to the data, the annual sales of Thom Browne are close to 60 million US dollars.

At present, many investors are concerned about this brand, including Private Equity Investment Firm Sandbridge Capital, which is closely related to Tommy Hilfiger.

Private Equity Investment Firm Sandbridge also includes Derek Lam, Tamara Mellon and Karl Lagerfeld brand shares.

Until the deadline, potential investors of Alexander Wang, Thom Browne and Cushnie et Ochs declined to comment on the matter.

At the beginning of this year, LVMH group stopped investing in cutting-edge designer brands.

This also means that LVMH is no longer pfusions, and the Maxime Simo ns brand has recently reduced the size of the company and suspended the release of the new series.

LVMH has invested in some young designers including Marco de Vincenzo and Nicolas Kirkwood.

The brand of personal designer is short of the capital support of the consortium, and the future direction of the brand can only wait for the test of time.
