Shutting Up Shop: Imitation of Christ is History
It's sad but we can't say we're surprised—after all, when Tara Subkoff sold her brainchild, Imitation of Christ, to Sass & Bide CEO Josh Sparks back in 2007, the death knells were almost audible. But back in 2000, when the line debuted to roaring success, who could have guessed it would reach a crescendo a few years later, only to fizzle out so quickly? The combined talents of loyal fans Scarlett Johansson and Chloe Sevigny weren't even enough to help resurrect the label. We'll definitely look back with nostalgia on the early days of Imitation in all its glory, but we have to say that it seems like tomorrow's final sale should have happened yesterday. (Racked)
