>> Click model Ambrose Olson passed away unexpectedly last Thursday, April 22. Details of the cause of death are still unknown. The 24-year-old from Alaska - perhaps best known for his 2007 Armani Exchange ads (pictured) in which he appeared alongside Alessandra Ambrosio - also modeled in campaigns for Hugo Boss, Burberry, Louis Vuitton, and YSL, among others. May he rest in peace.

Proenza Schouler and Valentino Owner Permira Said to Be Shopping Both Labels

>> European private equity firm Permira, which bought minority stakes in Valentino and Proenza Schouler in May and July 2007, respectively, is reportedly looking to sell its interest in the labels. Permira denied that it is putting out feelers, but WWD reports that sources say otherwise, and several investment funds have looked at both labels.

One "well-placed source" is cited as saying that the situation with Proenza Schouler is "all very agreeable . . . [Permira is] trying to find a way out and working on a possible deal together with [Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez] . . . I believe the problem is that the brand is absorbing too much cash: It’s still a small business that requires a lot of investment to grow.”
