Talent Management has just heard that fashion favourite Gok Wan has been recruited by Sainsburys to design a collection for the chain’s ‘Tu’ clothing range .
Gok Wan’s first collection is due for release later in the year and promotional pictures have already appeared where the 36 year old is shown holding a ‘coming soon’ sign attached to a Sainsburys clothes hanger.
Talent Management can’t wait to see what he comes up with and hope that he brings Sainsburys as much success as Jamie Oliver’s involvement with the company has in recent years.
Sainsbury’s non-food Managing Director, Luke Jensen, says;
“TU clothing has become a major growth area for Sainsbury’s, based on the concept of delivering style and quality, at affordable prices.
“Over the next few years we will continue to dedicate more space to clothing, with new store openings and the development of existing sites. As we continue to grow and expand our ranges, we’re delighted to bring Gok’s unique talent as a democratiser of style and fashion, to our millions of customers. We’re looking forward to working with Gok and to learning new ways to make our shoppers look and feel fantastic.”
