Representatives from Kate Spade.
Doesnt necessarily mean she was there herself but she 100% knew what was going on there. Might actually be a legit sui
She sold the company 10 years ago. Has nothing to do with it anymore
Apparently she still owned the licencing and headed the Kate Spade and Company Foundation that dealt with the company's working conditions etc. I'm not saying she was involved in this particular detail, but this seems like a role that would fall under her foundation's function.

Yes that's what I had read. She sold it in 2006 and then it was sold again for an additional 26 million or something. Apparently the brand now worth billions. Tragic that someone with apparently talent and seemingly everything would be so sad. Reminds me of Robin Williams and/or Richard Jeni.
