Together, we bring scale, expertise and broad appeal to customers across America, Rosen said in a statement at the time. For us, customers are at the heart of what we do. We have a shared belief that customers deserve fashion and style of great quality for any and every moment in life. We will leverage our resources and best-in-class industry talent to grow our brands further.
