For the designer's 2022 resort collection, Rosie Assoulin signed a partnership with High Italian Manufacturing - HIM.Co. SpA. The apparel label – whcih is associated with Wildflower Brands LLC – plans to broaden business in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East with this new venture.
HIM, formerly known as the Onward Luxury Group, is a specialist in manufacture and distribution. According to Chief Executive Officer Max Assoulin, HIM will not be taking a stake in Rosie Assoulin. Instead, the alliance will provide the New York-Based designer the opportunity to further its customer base and company growth.
With its new resources, the brand anticipates bolstering its footwear and accessories with a vegan approach. The brand is available for purchase at several retail partners and through direct-to-consumer channels.
