Go Fish

The biggest trend in apparel this spring seems to be....buying and selling brands?

-Jones Apparel Group added Robert Rodriguez to its portfolio.
-PPR sells 3 of its non-luxury related businesses to 'clean up' its act and make room for luxury brand acquisitions.
-PVH announces its buying Tommy Hilfiger
-Richemont buys out Natalie Massanet's stake in Net-a-Porter
-Struggling French Connection Group is putting Nicole Farhi brand up for sale

What's next? My speculation is the hemmoraging Liz Claiborne, Inc. will put some of its brands up for sale...
