Xcel Brands, Inc. (OTCQB:XELB) has signed an exclusive licensing agreement with International Intimates Inc.

Isaac Mizrahi, Creative Director, Xcel Brands, Inc. said, "Clothes are nothing without underclothes. I take this category extremely seriously. The first step in a woman's wardrobe is her intimates, brassieres and sleepwear. She doesn't make a move without those pieces."
René Rofé, President & Chief Executive Officer of International Intimates, Inc., said, "We are very excited about our partnership with Isaac Mizrahi and his team at Xcel. I'm confident we will successfully interpret Isaac's looks into meaningful and solution-driven collections of intimate apparel, sleepwear & shapewear."

Xcel's management team consists of executives with significant experience in creating and growing businesses in the branded consumer products industry and a proven track record for successfully completing multiple similar acquisitions. Xcel will seek to acquire brands that it can utilize in a multi-channel distribution strategy (bricks and mortar, internet retailers and interactive media) with a focus on identifying designers or celebrities with personalities that connect directly with consumers through social and other media.
