We are surprised it lasted as long as it did. Marc Ecko's ill-thought-out Chelsea boutique Marc Ecko Cut & Sew is done. This comes after Ecko closed down his Gramercy warehouse, and walked away from a space in Times Square that he had been paying rent on for four and a half years. The final nail in the coffin may have been the location, the down economy, Ecko's rumored bankruptcy or a combo of all three. One thing is for sure: the outlook is not good for Ecko's empire.
