Hmm. Lots of conflicting feelings about my fave designer.
Pros: JCP has done a great job w/the in-store Sephoras + they've just hired an ex-Apple VP who totally gets it about selling a premium brand.
Cons: It's Nannete (!!!!) for crying out loud!
Wearable art with her exacting made in the US crafstmanship can't be mass produced. Otherwise, why not just go the disposable fashion route (hola, H&M) or save a few $$ on production costs by using factories in China that blow up b/c contractors can't be bothered (or forced) to install ventilation systems to keep their factories from blowing up. Oh wait...that's Apple's iPad....
Bottom line: Sometimes you need to trust your idols...as long as their names aren't Kardashian.
Long admired Nanette & her business partner hubby. Vera's line for Kohls generally rocks and Target's guest lines are legendary. Stay tuned...2013 isn't that far away.
