Betsey Johnson LLC Company Profile

Betsey Johnson, the person and the brand, is a favorite for women with a funky fashion sense. The apparel label, named after its eclectic designer, is sewn into dresses and other merchandise, shoes, handbags, and accessories (sunglasses, legwear, and perfume). Private equity firm Castanea Partners and Steven Madden have owned Betsey Johnson's trademark and intellectual property since the company recapitalized in 2010. Betsey Johnson filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy liquidation in 2012. Subsequently, The Levy Group, which licenses Betsey Johnson outerwear and other labels, picked up the license to make and sell her dresses to boutique retailers and department stores, including Bloomingdale's, Saks, and Nordstrom.
