“Fran is an extremely talented retail apparel and accessories merchant who comes to us with a wealth of experience,” says G-III Apparel Group CEO Morris Goldfarb. “We are excited to have her join us to lead the revitalisation and development of our retail businesses. Fran’s strong merchandising and operational skills will be an important asset to our goal of bringing these businesses back to profitability.”

Della Badia adds: “I have always admired how G-III has built an incredible operation over the years. I see a great opportunity to turn around its retail operations and look forward to working with the G-III and AM Retail teams to develop the full potential of their brick and mortar and online retail business.”
