Japan's Fast Retailing in talks to buy J.Crew: WSJ


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Fast Retailing , parent of clothing retailer Uniqlo, is in talks to buy J.Crew for as much as $5 billion, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday.

    The paper said that Fast Retailing had approached J.Crew's management about the potential purchase and that J.Crew was seeking as much as $5 billion for the business.

    It was unclear whether Fast Retailing was willing to pay that much, the Journal said, without citing sources.
