Eve’s Fetish

Innovo Group Inc., a sales and marketing organization designing and selling apparel, accessory and craft products to the retail, private label and specialty markets, announced last week that its subsidiaries Innovo Azteca Apparel and Innovo have entered into an exclusive multi-year licensing agreement with the celebrated recording artist and actress Eve. Innovo therefore has the right to design, market and distribute women's apparel and accessory products under the Fetish brand name.

The Fetish brand will be marketed to the junior and contemporary women's market through better department and specialty stores. The terms of the agreement allow for a multi-year licensing agreement with renewal options subject to certain revenue targets being met by the Company. Innovo intends to bring the new Fetish line to market by the fall season of 2003.

Since the release of her first album in 1999, Eve has used her dynamic personality and unique talent to become a dominant influence and trendsetter in the urban and mainstream fashion arenas. With a Breakthrough Style Award (given to her by Vogue) on her shelf and her own television show, "All About Eve", to be broadcast this Fall on the UPN television network, she will portray a New York fashion designer and is expected to continue her influence on the latest fashions and trends.
