While Bartlett says he would rather have a smaller, more focused business like Helmut Lang or Paul Smith than develop a huge multiplex of style like the label of Ralph Lauren or Calvin Klein, he still has expansion plans.

Last October he sued to reopen an existing Windows 95 lawsuit. All went well -- at first.
