New Ellen Tracy Owners Make Plans To Expand

Liz Clairborne has sold bridge brand Ellen Tracy to a group of business partners for $42.3 million. The brand was scooped up by Barry Sternlicht, Radius Partners LLC and Windsong Brands LLC for far less than the $180 million that Claiborne paid for it five years ago.

The new owners plan to reinvigorate and expand the brand with a new designer and added retail locations in the U.S. and abroad.

Ellen Tracy currently reaps $100 million in volume a year.
