Hi, and welcome back to Line Sheet. This week has felt long. Many lunches. Many Zooms. Many calls. Many texts. We are back! Apparently, Pitti already happened? Next up: Emmys red carpet, men’s, and couture… fashion never stops, so I guess neither do I?
Today’s issue is once again bursting with tales of deals, real and imagined, from every corner of the Line Sheet universe. The takeaway: people have money, and people need money. Let the 2024 M&A games begin.
But before we get started, I’m pleased to announce that Puck is partnering with one of my favorite no-B.S. data providers, Launchmetrics, on a special report that digs into who is really driving the fashion conversation online. I’ll be covering the report in the January 25 issue of Line Sheet, and running through the findings live that day at 8 a.m. PT/11 a.m. ET/5 p.m. CET with my pals at Launchmetrics. This event is exclusive to Puck members, because I want you to be smarter than everyone else (not very hard, honestly…). And if you’re not a subscriber yet (jeez), do it today, forward your welcome email to [email protected], and we’ll send you the registration link for the event.
Mentioned in this issue: Art + Commerce, Susan Plagemann, Launchmetrics, Connor McKnight, Max and Xander Ritz, Sally Singer, Barbara Sturm, Giovanni Testino, CAA, Les Wexner, David Boies, Ari Emanuel, Endeavor, Johnny Depp’s ex-lawyer, Gisele Bündchen, Ivan Bart, Christian Carino, John Mehas, Martin Waters, Dan Constable, Sabato De Sarno, Alastair McKimm, Anthony Seklaoui, Matthew Moneypenny, Jerry Lorenzo, and many, many more…
