The Federal Trade Commission on Monday sued to block Coach parent Tapestry’s $8.5 billion acquisition of Capri Holdings. The deal, now temporarily halted, would combine two major names in luxury retail and put six brands under a single company: Tapestry’s Coach, Kate Spade and Stuart Weitzman, and Capri’s Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors. The proposed transaction would help the brands compete with European luxury names including LVMH’s Louis Vuitton and Burberry. A merged Tapestry and Capri Holdings would have over $12 billion in annual revenue and a presence in more than 75 countries.
