Hi, and welcome back to Line Sheet, where we are counting our blessings that we don’t have to go
to Art Basel Miami next week.
In today’s issue, Sarah “SShapiro@puck.news” Shapiro has the story of two mysterious brands that I know you’re seeing everywhere, from the depths of the Substack comments to the outside tables at Café Charlot: Déhanche, a belt brand, and Nour Hammour, a leather jacket maker. Turns out, in a surprise twist, they share a
co-founder. Plus, up top, Sarah has a sweet little Black Friday preview, and I’ve got a Hearst layoff correction and the story behind Phoebe Philo’s first private sale.

Tuesday, and many, many more…

Anyway, this indicates to me that the company is...

The Nour Hammour co-founder and Déhanche principal has found success by choosing one category
and sticking to it. It’s a risky strategy, but when it works, it works.

Many founders struggle to build one successful brand. Erin Webb currently has
two. Both brands, she recently told me, aimed to fill a gap she perceived in the market—namely, “moms with disposable income … seeking out brands that are able to let them live their lives, be comfortable, but look pulled together and feel great.” Gigi Hadid, Hailey Bieber, and Jennifer Lawrence have all worn the leather jackets from Nour Hammour, the outerwear brand that Webb co-founded in 2013 with designer Nour
Hammour. Then in 2022, Webb launched Déhanche, a single-category concept that produces...
