Ivanka Trumps Line Gone From Neiman Marcus Website One Day After Nordstrom Drops Her Brand
By Jeremy Quittner
Updated February 3, 2017 at 5:39pm EST
Shoppers on Neiman Marcus website will no longer be able to purchase a $12,000 diamond bracelet designed by Ivanka Trump.
The bracelet was reportedly one of more than a dozen jewelry and accessory items designed by the First Daughter that have vanished from the tony retailers site with no explanation. Neiman Marcus did not respond to a request for comment.
Their disappearance comes soon after Nordstroms announcement Thursday that it had decided not to sell Ivanka Trumps products for the spring season, due to poor sales. Nordstrom had primarily sold her shoes online.
In this case, based on the brands performance, weve decided not to buy it for this season, Nordstrom said in a statement to the New York Times.......................................

(182,624 posts)They can claim sales (given the tarnishing of the the brand that's understandable) but the real reason seems to be that it's cheaply made crap AND concerns over stealing designs.

(81,110 posts)Rips off the styles of established designers, maybe changes one button or tassel, charges slightly less than the designer version, and slaps her name on them.
Evidently lagging sales told enough of a tale. Whether it was because of cheesy knock-offs or a boycott, it's MOST gratifying to see this!

(2,396 posts)But I can't find Nordstrom verifying this anywhere.

(89,240 posts)But yeah, i wouldn't exactly trust ivankas people.
But either way it looks like boycotts are working do we have to stick to it.

Those have got to be people with money who passing on the trump brand.

(89,240 posts)Especially people with money who come to the US to shop. They are the ones who might buy that expensive crap.
But also just carrying that brand could hurt with other sales since boycott means boycott the entire business not just avoid trump crap.
