Neiman Marcus

This retailer of luxury clothes saw a 5 percent drop in its top-line sales to $4.7 billion in the 2017 fiscal year. Neiman Marcus tried several things to make some improvements and RetailDive said they seemed to be working. However, the company’s interest expenses are still a huge burden.

The sales of this fashion retailer started declining when Neda Mashouf, its creative director, left after she divorced her husband in 2007. Manny Mashouf started the company in 1979. The declining popularity of malls played a major role in the challenges that Bebe is now facing. It reportedly had an operating loss of $4.6 million in 2017. The company attempted to remedy the situation by staying away from the usual retail space. It paid out $65 million to close its physical stores and focused solely on e-commerce.
