As life moves on there are many brands who either merge or get bought out due to many different reasons. Recently Coach was discussing buying Kate Spade, but officially Michael Kors has bought Jimmy Choo. Michael Kors has made reports of plummeting sales due to mall stores frequency of shopping has depleted and more people are shopping online and with personl brands. Though Michael Kors is really famous for their purses, bags, watches, and coming forth shoes. Their expansion with Jimmy Choo will add a number of products to the companies offerings.
Of course, how could I forget.
