Sigerson Morrison founders walk away
29/03/2011
Sigerson Morrison started out in 1991, with lower-priced offshoot Belle Sigerson Morrison joining the market in 2004. Since 2006, the brand has been owned by Marc Fisher Footwear, although when that acquisition took place, Ms Sigerson and Ms Morrison agreed to stay on as creative and design directors. It is this arrangement that has now come to an end.
“We wish Kari and Miranda the best on their future endeavours,” said Susan Itzkowitz, president of the Fisher Sigerson Morrison company, in a statement. “We are excited as we begin a new chapter with the Sigerson Morrison and Belle brands. We look to stay true to the spirit of Sigerson Morrison with influential and innovative design. As for Belle, we see huge potential with the brand in terms of design, sales and marketing.”
