TRENDS IN THE OTHER BRANDS
OF THE GROUP
Givenchy benefited from the enthusiastic reception for Ozwald
Boateng’s first men’s ready-to-wear collection and continued to
develop its collections of women’s accessories. The brand streng-
thened its presence in China, with the opening and renovation of
several points of sale. Riccardo Tisci joined the company in
February 2005 and will devote his efforts to the creation of high
fashion, ready-to-wear and accessory collections.
Thomas Pink had a good year, marked by the success of its
new collections, the expansion of its presence in the United
States, and the opening of its first boutique in Asia.
Continuing its rapid development, Marc Jacobs again perfor-
med extremely well, with strong sales growth in 2004. The
brand expanded its boutique network in the United States and
strengthened its commercial development in Asia. The year
2005 will be devoted to European development. A first boutique
will be opened in Palais-Royal in Paris.
Driven by the growth of its accessory lines and the develop-
ment of its ready-to-wear collections, Pucci’s activity surged
again in 2004. The brand expanded its presence in the United
States and took a major step in Japan with the opening of its first
points of sale.
Berluti continued its very dynamic growth, supported by the
launch of two new shoe lines, Olga 3 and Scalpel, the expan-
sion of its small leather goods and the opening of new stores
in New York, Fukuoka, Seoul and China.
