James brings to the position 30 years of experience in retail merchandising and store management. She began her career as a buyer for Bloomingdales and worked her way into various executive positions in retail and marketing. Most recently she held high level roles for Macy’s home division, overseeing marketing, storewide, and lease.

In her new position James will work closely with Carlos Falchi’s core handbag partner Artisan House, as well as 13 other licensees. She will also liaise with Carlos Falchi’s retail partners around the globe on the label’s marketing and business development.

Carlos Falchi said he was “so happy” with Maura James’ appointment, adding that her background will serve the firm well as they look to develop further retail and licensing opportunities.

It seems like a bit of a mutual admiration society, as James called Falchi “one of the most innovative, influential, and unrivaled designers of our time.” With enthusiasm like this I’m sure she’ll fit right in at Carlos Falchi, and lead the fashion house to even more success. Do you think she’s the right woman for the job?
