What’s Going on With Charles Anastase? (Forum Buzz)

Anastase hasn’t held a formal presentation since showing his Fall 2011 collection in London, but as Scott noted, “The last official collection he did was Spring 2012—there was no presentation but I’ve seen some of the pieces on the Matches website. So obviously the last one did go into production.”

Forum members are guessing that Anastase has likely fallen on hard times financially. If that’s the case then it wouldn’t be a surprise considering the economic climate and that other brands seem to be folding left and right. A little investigation by TianCouture revealed an odd Facebook post by Iain Brodie in July 2011 on the Charles Anastase 1979 group page. He wrote:

“How about you pay your bills Mr. Anastase? Should you intend exhibiting/showing at London Fashion Week this September, I look forward to catching up with you then!”

Awkward.

So, what’s the deal? Forum members are sure to continue their investigations, but it seems strange that there has been no formal announcement of any sort. This feels like a mystery that needs to be solved.
