Kate Bartle, communications director for Michael Kors, has moved to Ralph Lauren Corp., as senior director of global fashion PR and communications.
The appointment follows the pending exit of Ralph Lauren global communications chief Malcoln Carfrae, who is stepping down to day to start a New York-based firm.
Carfrae is a Calvin Klein and Bryan Morel PR alum.
Prior to the last two years with Michael Kors, Bartle held top communications posts for Belstaff and Daine von Furstenberg. She was also PR manager for kate spade.
The pressure is on PR pros to make sure corporate messaging remains clear and cohesive. Business jargon is an obstacle to achieving this goal.
In today's volatile world of constant disruption, the ability to offer reliability and dependability is more valuable than ever.
