Tamara Mellon to step back into fashion Thursday, 16th May 2013

Since reaching the end of her non-compete agreement with Jimmy Choo at the end of February, Tamara Mellon has stayed relatively quiet in terms of new business plans. Until now.
This morning the former Jimmy Choo chief creative officer and co-founder tweeted a picture of herself with a man named Francesco, whom she dubbed “the world’s most amazing shoe maker”. The businesswoman then tweeted “back to the factories!” alongside another picture of her having her foot measured - a sure sign that Mellon is about to make her grand re-entrance into British fashion.
Earlier this year the fashion rumour mill was rife with speculation that Mellon had secured backing from big names such as Tory Burch and Tommy Hilfiger for her new business. Stores in London, Los Angeles, New York, Brazil, Hong Kong, Qatar and Singapore were also discussed in the fashion press, but Mellon has not yet commented on the matter.

Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger owner PVH Corp reports better than expected results Thursday, 28th March 2013

PVH Corporation beat expectations for its final quarter, with adjusted earnings per share up 34 per cent year-on-year.
That beat Zacks consensus estimate of USD 1.50 and its own guidance range of USD 1.48- USD 1.49, coming in instead at USD 1.60.
Strong revenues growth and improved margins boost PVH’s fourth quarter results, which saw total revenue rise 6.7 per cent to USD 1,636.1 million compared with USD 1,532.8 million in the year before.
But despite strong trading at PVH’s Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein lines, the apparel group suffered from a decline at its Heritage Brands segment, negative impact from exiting the Izod and Timberland business and unfavourable foreign currency exchange rates.
Revenue at Tommy Hilfiger rose 9 per cent to USD 891.1 million during the quarter compared to the year before, driven by an 11 per cent rise in North American business and an 8 per cent increase in international businesses.
Not to be outdone, Calvin Klein saw its revenue improve by 14 per cent to USD 317.4 million for the period, thanks to strong sales in North America and store expansions.
Meanwhile PVH’s Heritage Brands segment fell 2 per cent year-on-year to USD 427.7 million, driven by the impact of the group’s exit from the Izod and Timberland businesses.
As the world’s largest shirt making company and over 12,000 employees worldwide, PVH Corp said it now expects fiscal 2013 total revenue to be USD 8.2 billion, with Warnaco contributing approximately USD 2.15 billion.

PVH Corp has raised its full year profit view after posting a bigger quarterly profit on Tuesday.
The Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein owner said it now expects to make between USD 6.37- USD 6.38 a share for the year, up from a previous guidance in August of USD 6.25 to USD 6.32 per share.
"The worldwide consumer appeal for Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger has allowed us to successfully expand our market share penetration and global reach of our designer lifestyle brands, despite the macroeconomic headwinds," chief executive Emanuel Chirico said in a statement.
PVH, which also owns the Van Heusen, IZOD and Arrow brands, earned USD 165.41 million for the third quarter to 28 October, up from USD 112.4 million a year before.
Gross margins rose 260 basis points for the company, which PVH attributed to the higher-margin Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger business growing faster.
It's the fifth time this year PVH has raised its full-year earnings outlook, after continued strong performances from the global apparel company's leading brands.
