A Chat with Christophe Gaigneux,EVP, Boston Apparel Group,

CS: When was that group established?

CG: As it is today? We just changed the setup a little bit — because all the brands have been established for some time. Chadwick's in '83, Lerner catalog in '85, Jessica London spun off the Chadwick's catalog in '97 and La Redoute was brought to the U.S. from France in '99. Now we operate those catalogs as a group, since I've been appointed to the head of the group. I previously was the head of the Special Sizes Group, which was a different setup. Now we're organized by site.
