a Fashion Empire Is in the Making
As Colombe Nicholas, chancellor of
christian louboutin shoes-New York, sees it,
wilson racquets, the Lacroix strategy is alike apt that creature used to mall Chanel. The corporation maneuvers to reserve control along designing its own accessories, from bags to
christian louboutin and scarves; entire will be manufactured by subcontractors.
”And we will own the stores and we will own the corners in the division stores,” Mrs. Nicholas said.
Mr. Arnault is betting $30 million that by 1990, the Lacroix appoint will be sufficiently lusty to defend boutiques and products no only in the United States but nigh the globe. A perfume is being created, but it, too, will not be disclosed until 1990.
Christian Dior not longer owns its perfume. When Mr. Arnault took over Agache, the group’s major holding was Boussac St.-Freres,

Christian Dior S.A., were conducive. Even so, Dior was a far cry from for advantageous as it might have been. In 1972, Boussac had sold
christian louboutin perfume and cosmetics rights to Moet Hennessy, with Dior retaining only a 1 percentage interest in the company.
But Mr. Arnault said he was confident from the day he met Mr. Lacroix two years ago. ”I had the aid of a friend of mine,

He needed less encouragement to purchase Celine. When the family-owned commerce was prepared to sell, Mr. Arnault was there. The leather-goods company produces high-quality handbags,
discount coach purses,
christian louboutin shoes and suits.

Hermes and Louis Vuitton. Mr. Arnault said he plans to decrease the number of styles of handbags.
”You must condense on what namely truly selling,
cheap running shoes,” he said. ”Otherwise, the good production will be lost in the medium of the others.”
