New Look Group plc
 PROFILE
Growing as fast as its teen customers, New Look Group sells private-label clothing, lingerie, shoes, and accessories at about 500 shops in the UK. New Look targets women and teen girls with budget-priced clothing (such as its 915 brand). It offers a line for girls as young as nine, as well as its Inspire line of plus-sized apparel. New Look also sells a growing line of home accessories through its catalogs, and it is expanding its nonclothing offerings. The retailer combined its 27 French stores with about 90 Mim womenswear stores in France to form New Mim; New Look owns 51% of the joint venture. The family of managing director Tom Singh, who founded New Look in 1969, owns about 33% of the company.
