Fashion Who's Who 2008: The Buyers

 

THE BUYERS

Like fashion critics, retail buyers and indie store owners are key when it comes to the success or failure of any designer. The important names to know in American fashion right now are Julie Gilhart of Barneys (who Vogue once called the "rock star" of buyers), Linda Fargo and Roopal Patel of Bergdorf Goodman, Ken Downing of Neiman Marcus, Michael Fink of Saks Fifth Avenue, Kirna Zabete co-owners Beth Buccini and Sarah Easley, Opening Ceremony duo Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, and Scoop's Stefani Greenfield.
