Fetherston in at Juicy

Designer Erin Fetherston, who designs her own eponymous collection of girlish designer fashion, will temporarily head design at Los Angeles–based Juicy Couture, which is owned by New York–based Liz Claiborne.

The brand, which was founded in 1996 by Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor, has been without a designer since Skaist-Levy and Nash-Taylor relinquished their day-to-day duties earlier this year. Fetherston, a California native, will act as guest designer and creative consultant for the brand through 2011.—Erin Barajas
