Zac Posen is Coming Back
Zac Posen is making a comeback, but there’s a catch. The designer will exclusively work with Neiman Marcus for two seasons, with its Fall RTW collection launching in September 2022. The label closed its doors in 219, which was a shock to the fashion community. It was acquired by Centric Brands LLC in 2020, taking over Z Spoke LLC. It is important to note that the designer behind the label, Zac Posen, will not be working on this collection. In an Instagram post, he said, ‘Not me, Not my designs. Just a trademark.”
“We believe there is a white space in the marketplace for beautifully crafted clothing, especially in occasion dressing,” shared the Senior Vice President and Division Head of Zac Posen, Melissa Lafere-Cobb. “Launching the Zac Posen ready-to-wear collection under Melissa’s leadership is an exciting opportunity to evolve and grow the brand,” said the Group President of Neiman Marcus, Suzy Biszantz.
