Cassie Rosenthal was quoted in Footwear News on the Possible Union of Barneys & Saks
Cassie Rosenthal was quoted in Footwear News’ article, “Will the Union of Barneys & Saks Help Refuel the Department Store Sector?” The article discusses what’s in store next for Barneys New York post-Bankruptcy if Authentic Brands Group decides to move forward with their plan of a Saks-Barneys union.
Cassie notes that, “Thinking collaboratively is the only way retailers and brands can change the dialogue around the state of the business. This [plan] could potentially open up more exciting ways other struggling department stores could leverage their brand equity and reinvent how they engage with consumers, while also alleviating the burden of a large physical footprint.”
