LVMH-backed privaty equity firm L Catterton has ac

LVMH-backed privaty equity firm L Catterton has acquired a majority stake in Kapital, a Japanese clothing company founded in 1985 by Toshikiyo Hirata.

According to the Greenwich, Connecticut-based firm's website, the purchase was made last year, however, the company hasn't provided any details on the size of the transcation. The change of hands follows the death of Hirata in April of last year.

According to Hypebeast, "Kapital was formally founded in 1985 in Kojima, the district in Japan’s Okayama prefecture known as the birthplace of Japanese denim. Hirata-san first founded the denim label in 1948 while living in the United States as a karate teacher, heavily inspired by the American denim aesthetic. He was one of the early Japanese collectors who traveled to America at the time in search of 'vintage gold' and went on to study denim-making techniques in Kojima in the ’80s."

L Catterton is led by co-CEOs J. Michael Chu and Scott Dahnke. Originally Catterton Partners, the fund merged with Bernard Arnault's family office and LVMH in 2016 to create L Catterton.

Some of L Catterton's notable investments include Birkenstock, Peloton, Miami Design District, Stripes, Ganni and Etro, among others.

Rapper Jim Jones has stirred conversation within s

Rapper Jim Jones has stirred conversation within sneaker culture today, over his claim that drug dealers are responsible for starting sneaker culture. "Michael Jordan made em but the drug dealers made me want to buy them," he wrote on Instagram. He also called out "weird dudes doing sneaker shows," as negatively impacting demand.

Jones isn't the first to credit drug dealers' influence. Harlem designer Dapper Dan in his autobiography noted that in the '90s, drug dealers were not only his best customers, they were also the trendsetters that everyone--including rappers--followed.

Thoughts on the reboot?

Actor and Pattern Beauty founder Tracee Ellis Ross

Actor and Pattern Beauty founder Tracee Ellis Ross is set to receive the Hollywood Trailblazer Award at the l WWD Style Awards, an evening celebrating the best in red carpet fashion and beauty. Hosted by Women's Wear Daily, the event will take place on January 3rd at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills.

Speaking about the honor, Tracee shares,"For me, how I dress myself is really a form of expression, and it's one of the ways that I wear my insides on my outside. It started as an armor, a way that I would feel protected, and now it's just one of the ways I express myself, and it brings me so much joy. I really feel like there's an importance to how we express ourselves, particularly in the world that we're living in. How I dress is one of the ways that I show up in the world and tell people how I want to be responded to."
