Fashion Bug Smashed! Ascena Group to Close All Remaining Stores by 2013
Most are aware that Lane Bryant and its Charming Shoppes affiliates (Catherines, Fashion Bug, etc) were acquired in May 2012 by Ascena Retail Group, best known for their Dress Barn retail locations. The company has officially made the decision close down the failing brand extension by early 2013. Good move, Bad move? What do you think?
