If anything just buying a brand simply so you can have your own fashion house is likely to put fans of that brand off buying anymore. This is a similar situation to Bape at the moment, there is a new guy doing the designs instead of Nigo and I am sure die hard Bape fans will rebel!

Happens to many brands. Bigger corporations absorb the company, new folks star doing the thinking and production and suddenly start to alienate the core audience. Just sad what has happened to Kato jeans for instance.
