Charles Jourdan and the Hiltons? I Hear It Is Not So

WWD reports that an investment vehicle backed by Paris Hilton's parents is considering buying Charles Jourdan out of bankruptcy. Part of the deal would be yet another range of Hilton products. This one a Kathy Hilton for Charles Jourdan line of shoes. Sound too good to be true? Well it could be. A sources close to the company told me the deal isn't happening. The Jourdan company is still languishing in bankruptcy down to 200 staff and six stores.
