CKx, which bought Mr Fuller’s 19 Entertainment in 2005, said that it was scaling back its London operations and would not be funding the business. Mr Fuller left CKx, which owns and produces American Idol, in March but stayed as the “creative force” behind its television programmes, with a profit-sharing agreement.
A spokesman said: “Fashionair is to cease production of new content and scale down its London operation with immediate effect.” Related Links
Ms Lee was a former chief buyer at Net-a-Porter, an online luxury fashion retailer sold last month for £50 million to Richemont, the owner of Cartier. She is thought to be seeking a new backer for Fashionair. CKx, which controls Elvis Presley’s estate as well as 19 Entertainment, this week reported revenue of $67 million (£45 million) for the first quarter, down 18 per cent.
