Anon is right about PS's not selling well. Lanvin Boss has been wanting to sell its brand for a few years because it's not profiting. how can you let go of a brand if they're saleable!? all businessmen are greedy, if they earn money they want more, they'll expand business. however it seems PS is doing the opposite here.

i don't think they're profiting. if you seriously think they do, then you have no idea how fashion business fares today. even the biggerest designer houses lose money; why can they immue to this recession?

You're right, but firms like this don't keep companies for ever. They typically sell them off in 3 to 5 years. They might just be conservative. Anyone can see that, with the right people running the company, Proenza has potential to make a lot more money.

Sally Singer in Vogue this month believes that the designers with strong clear identities of who they are and the their brand will be the designers to survive the recession. Being that I I schooled with both Jack and Laz I can honestly say they are meant to do this and only this,they used to take home every award. I am sure they will be fine in the long run I foresee very huge profits. They have too much going for them,and too much passion to fail.

They wouldn't sell if they thought they could make more $$$ with the company. Must mean things are not going well — the financial future (reviews aside) must seem limited. Just a guess.
