One of the largest American mass clothing retailers is struggling in this economic condition. “For the first time since 2007, Gap will have little to do with the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund.” This year, CFDA/Vogue scholarship will be supplied by Gap’s competitor, J. Crew.
Also, Ann Taylor will be financially supporting October fashion show in LA.
“Despite the great press and great clothes that came out of the Gap/CFDA collaborations, the world’s biggest retailer is struggling more than ever with its branding. (Patrick Robinson is trying to change that, and we hope that he succeeds.)”
