Yesterday, Thom Browne.

Today, Marc Ecko.

The NY Post is on a roll.

I know ME is of scant interest on this forum, but comparision is interesting: TB has the troubles of a small privately owned company with a few high-end outlets, while ME has the troubles of a company with mass-market outlets and large institutional creditors.

I would love for Ecko to crash and burn. I really hate their clothes.

If there were "shorts" you could place on clothing brands these two would be at the top of the list. Good riddance.

Others include:

Band of Outsiders
John Hardy
Rocawear
Raf Simons
Travota

Bad business practices and poor prediction of the future markets. If a business fails their is no one to blame but the owner.
