We remain cautious about our overall business until we navigate through the seismic shift in women's fashion that occurred late last year and customer feedback becomes more consistent. Thus far during the quarter, sales in comparable stores are running below our plan and the previous year, while the direct and wholesale businesses are running nicely ahead."
