About Public Clothing Company

Public Clothing Company (PCC) is a New York-based apparel platform founded in 1993 that provides sourcing, manufacturing, financing, e-commerce, and brand-management infrastructure for fashion and accessory brands. Originally a private-label wholesale product developer, PCC has evolved into a multi-brand operator that owns and licenses names like 10 Crosby…

The Challenge

Public Clothing Company had a challenge: with its VP of eCommerce about to go on maternity leave, it needed a dependable eCommerce Manager. But this wasn't just about filling a gap; they wanted someone who could elevate both of their brands, ATM Collection and Derek Lam 10 Crosby, all within a tight budget shaped by a slower economy.

Our Approach

Chameleon Collective leaned into its network and industry knowledge. The search wasn't just for an eCommerce Manager but for a strategic thinker who could take the brands further, even within budget constraints. With economic pressure making the right blend of expertise and value hard to find, we ran a careful search and vetting process and identified a candidate whose vision aligned with Public Clothing Company's goals.

The Impact

The new eCommerce Manager stepped in smoothly and lifted the brand's digital experience. The VP could begin maternity leave with confidence that the company's ambitions were in capable hands, and the team's regard for him reinforced the success of the placement. With the right talent, even a tight budget can open up real opportunity.
