Dan Finley, chief executive of Debenhams Group, said: “Launching into the US is about bringing our much-loved British fashion labels to new audiences overseas, starting with some of the most iconic department store names in the market. “Each now offers exciting products from some of the most iconic British brands with a point of difference within the market,” according to Debenhams. “The appetite we’re already seeing for our labels underlines the strength of British fashion internationally, and we’re excited to build on that momentum with our US partners,” Mr Finley added. The deals were arranged through Refined Networks, which helps fashion and lifestyle brands expand internationally through online marketplaces. It comes amid a difficult time for Debenhams Group, with Mr Finley – who was appointed last year – leading a major turnaround after mounting losses and flagging sales.
