(July 2009) posted on Thu Jul 30, 2009

Duo plan to join Crombie brand

House of Fraser (London) directors June Lawlor and Colin Porter have left the department store to join British men’s and women’s apparel brand Crombie. June Lawlor had served as director of womenswear, accessories and beauty at House of Fraser; Colin Porter was commercial director at the department store. In September, both will join Crombie as joint managing directors.

Together, they plan to revamp the brand, focusing on Crombie’s heritage and on producing classics with a twist. They also plan to expand the brand's network of standalone stores, concessions and website.

“It's perfect timing to join Crombie, when we are seeing customers returning to classics and quality from trusted sources,” say Lawlor and Porter.
