Even when pants cost $89, knit tops $76, parkas $356 and astrakhan pieces go for $763, as they do at Bonpoint, the profit margins are lower than those for grownups, since high-end customers seek top-quality fabrics and subtle trims and detailing but expect children's clothing?even expensive children's clothing?to cost significantly less than their own. And there are fewer opportunities for high-margin add-ons. Even the most precocious Bonpoint customers have little need for leather handbags, although the current management has high hopes for developing perfumes and skin-treatment...
...want Harvard Real Estate to get a bum rap for this,” he said at the time.Zinnia Jewelry, Toscanini’s Ice Cream, and Gnomon Copy will close on Jan. 1 to make way for the renovations.
