Henry is the British label’s first CEO since it was taken over by private equity firm Better Capital in April 2012, when the ailing company was bought from previous majority stake holder Harold Tillman – who still owns a 10 per cent holding in the brand. In November 2012, Collette Brown – who had previously worked at Burberry, Pringle and Dolce & Gabbana – was named head of womenswear.
"I am delighted that Colin is joining as CEO of Jaeger," Nick Sanders of Better Capital told WWD. "Over the last year, we have placed Jaeger on a positive trajectory, and the business is now looking in good shape; I look forward to Colin building on this momentum in the coming months."
