Australian clothing brand Flo Dancewear is being taken to court with a winding-up order submitted against it.
This is according to a notice on the Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s (ASIC) website.
Flo Dancewear was launched in 2008 by Felicia Palanca and sells ballet essentials for kids and teens via an online website. The brand is also stocked in David Jones and on The Iconic.
The ASIC notice confirms that Changzhou Laosan Group Imo. & Exp. Pty. Ltd is calling for the winding up of the Australian dancewear business, with a hearing set in the Supreme Court of Victoria on October 15.
Changzhou Laosan is a fashion manufacturing facility based in China, and is presumably a supplier to Flo Dancewear.
This is the latest winding-up order to be tabled against a fashion business in Australia, with General Pants facing a similar winding-up order in July over an unpaid debt, which has since been rectified. A General Pants spokesperson told Ragtrader in July that it was a commercial matter between both parties that is now resolved.
Ragtrader has reached out to Flo Dancewear and the lawyers representing Changzhou Laosan Group for further information.
