House of Dereon Grows After Split
After parting ways with Los Angeles– based licensee Tarrant Apparel in March, entertainer Beyonce Knowles’ House of Dereon brand has a new licensing partner and a new junior collection.
New York–based Check Group LLC has assumed the brand’s license and will manufacture and distribute the House of Dereon contemporary brand, as well as the new Dereon junior line. The new collection of denim, knits and fur jackets will debut for Holiday 2006 in select specialty stores.
