Seven For All Mankind announced that as of October 1st, 2008, Topher Gaylord, 39, is the new president of the contemporary denim label. In the new role Gaylord will manage out of the company’s Los Angeles, California headquarters where he is responsible for all aspects of the business in the Americas, including the opening of 100 freestanding stores over the next five years.
Currently, Gaylord is president of the VF Corporations International Outdoor and Action Sports business, based in Lugano, Switzerland. VF Corporation is an American apparel corporation and the world's biggest clothing company, specializing in jeanswear, intimate apparel, daypacks, and workwear.
Last week, VF Corp. opened Seven's first New York store, a 3,000-square-foot retail space in SoHo. The premium denim label is also growing into new categories of clothing, including sportswear, handbags and footwear. VF’s contemporary brands segment, reported revenues of $142.3 million last year, driven primarily by the Seven brand. Surely, expansion of the label is proving to be a good thing.
