Shinsegae International to acquire Paul Poiret trademarks

New York - First there was the revival of Vionnet, then there was the revival of Schiapparelli, and up next could be the revival of a fashion house that hasn't done business in almost 80 years: Paul Poiret. Shinsegae International, considered the retail giant of South Korea, have so far focused primarily on domestic business, but, their plan to acquire the Paul Poiret trademark could be a sign that they are ready to tackle the international market.
