The
Gap has been struggling for several years now to find its place in the world of
retailing. (Sales were down 7% last
quarter.)
Now
they have announced that this year's back-to-school effort for girls will
feature a new collection from Ellen DeGeneres.
The line labeled GapKids x ED,
ties into Ellen's lifestyle brand ED, which includes women's clothes,
accessories and home decor.
What
do you think? Will this bring back women
who have left the brand due to its style missteps?
