According to Guinness World Records 2001 edition, the highest annual earnings by a fashion designer is Giorgio Armani, with an estimated {$135} million in 1999. You can read more details here: http://www.fashionz.co.uk/designers/GiorgioArmani/ I also found this: Thierry Hermes founded his saddlery company in 1837. Gradually he added boots, jewelry, home decor items, and silk scarves. In 1920, his grandson Emile added luggage. Economic Data In 1995, total group sales were up 11.6% to {$767} million. It is estimated that clothes, ties, and scarfs account for over 40% of sales. Among these the famous silk products, like ties and scarfs contribute the highest sales. 68% of sales are achieved by exports. Japan and the United States (+35%) account for the majority of growth in sales. The recent success of the company is reflected in the share price of the company: while on introduction three years ago, it was traded at 300 Francs, it now costs around 1400 Francs at the Paris stock-exchange. In 1996, sales were even 6% higher at {$817} million. While watches and perfume increased sales even more, sales for ready-to-wear clothes rose by 20%. Net profits in 1994 were at {$55} million (a rise of 39% to 1993), and for 1995 profits of {$80} million (+39%) are reported. In 1996, the net profit was {$89} million. http://www.infomat.com/community/whoswho/biography/thierryhermes.html
