With a view to exploit diversifying luxury spaces in India, three high-end fashion brands from Turkish Orka Group namely, Tween, Damat and ADV, will enter the country by October.
Blues Clothing Company (BCC) of Delhi has joined forces with Orka Group as a franchisee to introduce the aforesaid three apparel and accessory brands in the country. The group has about 400 sales units in around 35 countries across the globe.
According to Executive Director of BCC, Abhay Gupta, multi-brand and standalone stores would be opened in the country for these brands. The company is an exclusive franchisee for many other brands such as Versace Collection, Corneliani, Cadini, VJC and Gianni Versace, which are leading Italian brands.
