Manish Bhatt, Founder Director, Scarecrow Communications, is thrilled to add some glam quotient to the agency's clientele. “What makes this triple acquisition really exciting is the fact that while all three brands are iconic, each has a unique tone of voice. They all have done some really brave, clutter-breaking work, globally. It's indeed a privilege to work on brands with such great legacy.”

Kavita Khiara , Marketing Head for Steve Madden and Kenneth Cole, said, “Increasingly fashion consumers expect from the brands that they adorn the same tonality that is the signature to their clothing and accessories. Bringing in a freshness and yet carrying forward the soul of the brand is a communication challenge that we see the team at Scarecrow well adept at handling.”

Kenneth Cole, the American fashion house founded in 1982, has not only stirred the world with its collections, but also with its thought-provoking, hard-hitting campaigns, often revolving around social issues.
