Akris

By Piers Fawkes on September 22, 2006

A recent FT article was full of praise for the Swiss women’s label that has already made an impact in NYC and is now moving on to London. The FT says:


Akris, possibly the most successful label you’ve never heard of, has taken Manhattan and is in the midst of a stealth invasionof London, thanks to a new Bond Street store.

So what is Akris? First of all, it’s Swiss. It’s family-owned. And its formula is simple: take the most luxurious fabrics and create a line for women focusing on confident jacket shapes, fragile blouses and cocktail dresses.
