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.

The Jourdan company is still languishing in bankruptcy down to 200 staff and six stores.
