Dutch fashion designer brand Viktor & Rolf has a new partner. Italian businessman Renzo Rosso, the man behind Diesel, acquired a majority stake in the brand, which is headed up by Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren. Rosso has big plans for his new acquisition. He wants to grow the company’s ready-to-wear business and add a number of Viktor & Rolf stores that would not only carry their label but add licensed products such as eyeglasses and jewelry.
