Jones Apparel Company Description
While some are busy keeping up with the Joneses, Jones Apparel Group is too busy taking stock in its portfolio of brands to take notice. It provides a wide range of women's and men's clothing and shoes. Jones owns and operates about 1,000 outlet and specialty stores. Its brands include Anne Klein, Jones New York, and Evan-Picone, among many others. Subsidiary Nine West Group designs shoes under the names Easy Spirit, Enzo Angiolini, Bandolino, and Gloria Vanderbilt. Gloria Vanderbilt and l.e.i. design twill and denim casualwear, swimwear, and accessories. In response to declining apparel sales, Jones is closing stores and in 2007 sold its luxury fashion retailer Barneys New York to focus on its other brands.
