Tapestry’s Ian Bickley looks to increase his brands’ presence in Indonesia and beyond.
From humble roots, Tapestry, a New York-based maker of luxury goods, has now become a global powerhouse brand manager, with $4.5 billion in sales (2017 full year). Its worldwide reach can be seen in the newly renovated Coach store at Plaza Senayan, at nearly 150 sqm. It was designed by Coach Creative Director Stuart Vevers in partnership with Studio Sofield President William Sofield, and reflects a sophisticated yet playful refinement with its warm ambience of leather and natural wood finishes. Tapestry is the new name for the leather goods firm Coach, Inc. which changed its name to reflect its move to a multi-brand luxury firm, now including both Kate Spade and Stuart Weitzman. To inaugurate the store, Tapestry Global Business Development and Strategic Alliances President Ian Bickley visited Jakarta, and gave Forbes Indonesia an exclusive interview. Ian is responsible for all strategic partnerships for the company’s portfolio of brands. Ian explains how the Tapestry group will expand Coach together with its two other brands.
