Designer merchandise
Licensed to fit lifestyle
By EUie Grossman
NEW YORK (NEA) -
What you’ve got to understand
is that licensing — seeing to it
that shoes, chandeliers,
stationery, etc., get the
fashion designer treatment —
is necessary to the health of
our economy
That’s what Dick Howard
said He's a licensing agent,
the president of International
Licensing Associates, who
shares office space (just to
save overhead) with several
other licensing agents.
All told, there are six com
panies totaling 14 agents who
represent 28 fashion
designers, all in one suite. We
only spoke with Howard and
Chip Rubenstein, whose com
pany is What Have You Done
For Me Lately. Inc., but they
said they thought they and
their colleagues were just
about the only people doing
this kind of work.
Howard is short, plump,
rather disarrayed (his
stomach tends to peer
between the buttons of his
shirt when he sits) and his
clients include Anne Klein.
Oscar de la Renta and John
Anthony, among others.
When he said that about
licensing and the economy.
Chip Rubenstein — tanned,
gray, better arrayed — cried.
‘ That’s like saying what’s
good for GM is good for the
country."
The way he’d put it, Rubins
tein said, is that we need all
those designer sunglasses,
watches, wallpaper, shoes,
belts, stockings, et al (which
seem indistinguishable to
some of us) because, number
one, "Europe used to be the
design fount of the world.
Now. America is making that
impress." Which sounds very
good for his clients Giorgio
Sant-Angelo, Mary
MacFadden and Scott Barrie,
among others.
Number two, ‘‘Fashion
designers have spent their
lives relating to women who
directly buy or influence the
buying of 85 per cent of all
consumer goods. They have
visibility and credibility."
People know their names and
believe (correctly or not) that
any product signed by them is
better than the same product
unsigned.
Which sounded to us like
another way of saying what
Dick Howard had said, es
pecially when Rubinstein add
ed that Seventh Avenue was
certainly in business to fill
needs and, yes, create them

— Griffin Daily News Saturday, July 16,1977
And that’s why every day
another designer item hits the
stands.
Howard and Rubinstein
don’t have to run around much
for this to happen, either
Seventy-five per cent of their
business comes to them, they
said. A luggage manufac
turer, for instance, will call lo
say he’d like to market a line
designed, say. by John
Anthony.
If he’s reputable, if Anthony
wants to do it and evervonc
can agree on terms, then they
all. sign an agreement for
three or five years with a
cancellation clause in case
one or the other botches up
Then, the designer is paid
enough to invest in another
summer home, perhaps a
minimum of SBO,OOO against a
royalty.
“We get between 10 to 25
per cent of what the designer
gets, depending on who he is
and what’s involved." Rubins
tein said
The average contract
between agent and designer
runs five years, during which
time the agent has to produce
a determined amount of in
come at certain intervals: the
first 18 months, after three
years and then five, when the
principals can sign up for
another five years together if
they want to.
What the consumer gets out
of all this, we mused, was a
1479 GLORIA STREET - Solid cedar home with double
garage & electronic door opener. Large deck and double
gas grill. 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, den with cathedral ceiling
and fireplace, built-in kitchen, breakfast area, living
room, extra storage or workshop. $45,000.00
higher priced whatever with a
fancy name on it. Not only
that, the ‘fancy name” may
be seeing the whatever for the
first time when it’s marketed.
We had heard that sometimes
other people really did the
designing
As far as price goes.
Howard and Rubinstein said,
absolutely not true. And as for
ghost-designing. ‘All
designers require help. Da
Vinci had an awful lot of
assistants doing that Sistine
Chapel." Well, Michelangelo,
if you want to get picky
Then Rubinstein said. “I’d
say it’s 00 to 95 per cent a
designer effort. They set the
taste level, they sketch or talk
out their ideas and supervise
the samples, but technicians
make the samples because a
clothing designer doesn’t
know exactly how a piece of
jewelry is put together or how
to select furs so they match.
“What you're really asking
is," he continued, “is there
any additional value to
designer merchandise as
against non-designer
merchandise 1 Yes. Because a
fashion designer best knows
the lifestyle of the people he
designs for."
Dick Howard left then to
talk to Japan about a licensing
agreement.
He started this whole
phenomenon 25 years ago, he
says, when he was president
of Peter Pan lingerie.
