Licensing deal for new range of women's apparel inked in the US.
G-III Apparel Group is adding to its collection of Calvin Klein clothing, signing a new licensing deal for a women's 'Performance' range.
The new line will be athletic and performance wear suitable for sports such as yoga, running, tennis and biking, according to the report on Just Style. It is planned to include pants, capris, shorts, tank tops, t-shirts, hooded jackets, tennis skirts and dresses.
G-III already holds licences under the Calvin Klein brand name for men's and women's outerwear.
It said that the soft launch of the new line would go ahead in the spring, with a complete roll out expected in the autumn.
"As we continue to expand product categories to provide the Calvin Klein consumer with a wide range of lifestyle apparel options, the addition of women's performance apparel fills an important niche," said Tom Murry, president and COO at Calvin Klein.
"Each new category we have entered into with G-III has been well executed and we would anticipate the same level of excellence with the new Calvin Klein Performance line."
