In my day,
Wet Seal was THE store.
Laggards in October included the usual suspect The Gap -LRB--6 %), who announced recently they would close roughly a quarter of their U.S. stores to focus on overseas growth, J.C. Penney -LRB--2.6 %) which continues to lose market share to Macy's (+2.2 %) and Kohl's (+3.9 %),
Wet Seal -LRB--9.7 %) and Bon - Ton -LRB--10.2 %).
Based on recent announcements from retailers such as J.C. Penney, Macy's, Izod, and
Wet Seal, the mall sub-sector is not done with store closings yet.
«And now, of course, there has been a severe contraction in the market and it sort of became a game of musical chairs and
Wet Seal didn't find a chair.
Whoever ends up taking the helms at
Wet Seal will also have to make some tough decisions about store closings, according to Davidowitz and Phibbs.

Wet Seal executives announced they've received letters from The Clinton Group, a New York City - based private equity firm that is one of its largest shareholder, urging them to sell the company.
In fiscal 2012, it had plans to open another 25 to 30 net new
Wet Seal stores while maintaining the same store count for Arden B. Today, the retailer operates a total of 553 stores, including 470
Wet Seal locations and 83 Arden B locations.

American Apparel, Jones New York, and Forever 21 are just a few of the retailers that are shrinking their footprints, adding to last year's list of high profile declining retailers, including Coldwater Creek, RadioShack and
Wet Seal.
Some, like Sports Authority Inc. and
Wet Seal, have not emerged.
Last month in Orange County Supreme Court,
The Wet Seal sued Greg Scott, former president of the company's upscale Arden B. division, after he become CEO at competing chain Bebe Stores Inc..
Other notable works include: «
Wet Seal» (1966) and «What Do You Mean, What Do I Mean?»
That includes a lot of retailers, many of which filed bankruptcy in 2016 (American Apparel, Sports Authority,
Wet Seal, and Hancock Fabrics, to name a few).
The theory behind this test is that the oil is providing
a wet seal for the rings.

Wet Seal to new heights lol!

The last time I was home two years ago I wanted nothing to do with these sunglasses, vintage T - shirts, Chanel costume jewelry, crystal mesh crop tops from
Wet Seal in the 90's etc... The lesson I learned here, was it really does take a decade or more for things to come back around.
