Neiman Names New Fashion Head

Neiman Marcus has finally selected a new fashion director to replace veteran Joan Kaner, ending months of speculation over who would gain the coveted position. Ken Downing, Neiman’s current vice president of PR, will take the role of senior vice president and fashion director, the store announced this week.

He will report to Ann Stordahl, the executive vice president of women's apparel, while menswear will still be run Colby McWilliams.

Although Downing was considered a favorite for the post when Kaner left in October of last year, months of searching outside the company created some doubt.

Kaner had been with Neiman for over 16 years, leaving Downing with big shoes to fill.
