Also, I think it's tough to compete with online, sometimes even for the same brand.

Ouch. That's a gorgeous store. The end of American luxe?

I think the RL restaurant is elsewhere in NYC?

A Canadian family owned brand called 'Laura' is retrenching. 'Laura' and 'Melanie Lyn' covered the 40-50 woman corporate type.

I wonder if RL does better as a boutique inside a bigger store and through that bigger store's online services? There is a lot of Lauren by RL in Winners.

More and more people are buying online. I was reading about how the American mall is dying.

Rent too high! Wow. We have that problem here. I mean, landlords would rather have an empty store than reduce their asking price. A persistent problem for the town council. And the nearest mall has gotten so ghetto, they have security escorts to your car.
