Trump slams Nordstrom for dropping Ivanka's fashion line

Updated

President Donald Trump lashed out at Nordstrom on Wednesday for dropping his daughter Ivanka's fashion line.

"My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by Nordstrom," Trump tweeted. "She is a great person — always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!"

Nordstrom said last week that the brand's declining sales led to its decision.

"Each year we cut about 10% [of brands carried] and refresh our assortment with about the same amount," a Nordstrom representative told Business Insider. "In this case, based on the brand's performance we've decided not to buy it for this season."

The retailer dropped Ivanka Trump's line amid calls for a boycott against retailers that carry Trump products.

In the days following Nordstrom's decision, retailers including Neiman Marcus and Belk also stopped selling the first daughter's fashion line, which includes women's clothing, shoes, and accessories.

A representative from Ivanka Trump's business said last week that sales are still growing, despite the boycotts.

"The Ivanka Trump brand continues to expand across categories and distribution with increased customer support, leading us to experience significant year-over-year revenue growth in 2016," Rosemary K. Young, Ivanka Trump's senior director of marketing, said in a statement to Business Insider Friday.
