CLONE

A partnership has been formed between ItochuFashion System Co Ltd and the Italian designer Bruno Bordese, owner of the Clone, C and Bruno Bordese labels. The agreement concerns the production under license and distribution of the C line by Itochu, owner of a number of department stores. For the Clone label, Itochu will deal solely with distribution. Infact, in the coming spring season, a one-brand shop is set to open in Tokyo, and this will be followed by two more: one again in the capital and another in Osaka. For now, the contract will only concern footwear, but a current project in the pipeline involves the Japanese ccompany widening the range of the C label with accessories and bags; for Clone a total look is on the cards.
