Juicy Couture

In 2005, Juicy licensed their name to T-Mobile for a designer version of their Sidekick II smartphone, and to Movado for a line of Juicy watches.

Five more stores were planned as of 2005 in Boston, Manhattan, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, and Scottsdale. In the past this normally resided on an expansion board, but it is commonly built into modern motherboards as broadband Internet access and home networking become more popular. A flagship store was opened in Las Vegas in October 2004. An Ethernet adapter is the hardware required to attach to an Ethernet network. Skaist-Levy and Nash-Taylor remained co-presidents of the company, and remain the creative minds behind Juicy Couture. Universal Serial Bus (USB) adapters are available for printers, and for keyboards and mice, among others.

for US$53 million, plus a percentage of future earnings. Adapters in computing are even more complex, requiring digital translation (or even digital signal processing in the case of converters). In 2003 Travis Jeans Inc, which owned all of Juicy assets, was purchased by Liz Claiborne Inc. This usage, which may appear overelaborate in that such adapters are inert structural elements rather than dynamic converters of signals or electrical power, actually derives from French. Juicy Couture added collections for men and children in 2002, and bathing suits and accessories for women, including shoes, handbags and jewelry (including very popular charm bracelets) were added to Juicy's line in 2004. They transfer the thrust from the lowest stage and are discarded during staging. Taylor and Duran Duran singer Simon Le Bon performed at a party launching the line's East Coast debut in New York City in November, 1999. The hollow cylindrical or conical segments between rocket stages or between the top rocket stage and the shroud that houses a spacecraft are called adapters.

Nash became Gela Nash-Taylor in March, 1999 when she married bassist John Taylor of Duran Duran. Other adapters may include a device that changes what is passing through, such as a transformer that adapts household electrical current from high voltage (100 to 240 volts) to low voltage (3 to 24 volts) suitable for consumer electronics. The brand was originally popular on the West Coast of the United States, when their fashion lines focused on comfortable women's sweat suits and sportswear. Likewise, a serial port may require an adapter to connect between the old DB-25 type and the later DE-9 type, which have 25 and 9 pins (respectively) but only 9 wires each. The company was co-founded in 1994 by Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash as Travis Jeans Inc., a line of maternity jeans named for Nash's son. One example would be a garden hose, which normally has threads that screw on, but can be attached to an adapter which allows it to snap easily on and off of faucets, other hoses, or attachments. The signature Juicy Crest, as well as the phrases "Love, P&G" are stitched on the inside tag of each item of Juicy apparel. An adapter may be very simple, connecting one kind of plug to another kind of socket, but not changing what passes through.

Entertaining slogans often adorn Juicy apparel, such as "Wake up and smell the Couture" and "Dude, Where's my Couture?". An adapter or adaptor is a device used to match the physical or electrical characteristics of two different things so that a connection may be made between them. The line is sold in upscale department stores and specialty stores, such as Neiman Marcus, Nordstroms, Bloomingdales, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Bergdorf Goodman. Juicy is very well-known for their terry, velour, cashmere, and fleece tracksuits, which have been made famous by the many celebrities who wear them. Juicy Couture is a stylish contemporary line of casual apparel based in Pacoima, California.
