He was the Burgundy buyer, right? I don't know. David Lille left (started
Chambers St), know Garnet has had a lot of turnover.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't JR the grandson of the owner of Garnet
(& Gotham too)--his father was Skinny Jack. Legend has it the grandfather
was extremly effective in negotiating discounts from distributors and
suppliers.

I haven't seen Monique there lately, either.

J.R. is the son of Skinny Jack, owner of Gotham and "advisor" or
"consultant" to Garnet, as his wife (Skinny's) technically owns
Garnet.

J.R. bought the Burgundy, and really taught me a lot about that region
when I worked there for two years. I'm very surprised that David
Lillie left, though Garnet is no doubt better for it. Where did he go?
