EssilorLuxottica SA agreed to buy the streetwear label Supreme from VF Corporation for $1.5 billion in cash, adding another lifestyle brand to the French-Italian eyewear company’s stable that already includes Ray-Ban and Oakley. Supreme was founded in New York by James Jebbia in 1994, selling clothes and footwear targeting skateboarding and urban trends. It has moved from being a cult favourite, with its distinct red and white logo, to a mainstream success and now has an online business as well as 17 stores in the US, Asia and Europe. EssilorLuxottica shares traded 3% lower early Wednesday in Paris, trimming their year-on-year gain to 10%. VF was down 0.5% in premarket US trading.
