NEW YORK (KABC) -- Fashion designer Kate Spade has been found dead in New York in an apparent suicide, law enforcement officials say.

Spade, 55, was found by her housekeeping staff in her Park Avenue apartment at around 10:20 a.m. Tuesday

She appeared to be hanging, and a note was found nearby. It's not clear how long she had been dead. The medical examiner will perform an autopsy.

Officials said she was found with a red scarf around her neck attached to a doorknob. The officials were not authorized to speak publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

Spade created a line of sleek handbags in the early 1990s that created a smash. Her company, Kate Spade New York, has over 140 retail shops and outlet stores across the U.S. and more than 175 shops internationally.

She walked away from the company in 2007, a year after it was acquired from the Neiman Marcus Group for $125 million by the company then known as Liz Claiborne Inc. In 2017, Coach bought the brand for $2.4 billion.

Spade and her husband Andy started a new handbag company a few years ago, Frances Valentine. And she changed her name to Katherine Noel Frances Valentine Brosnahan Spade, she said in an NPR interview this year.

Spade is survived by her husband and her daughter, born in 2005.

That would be Legion, who loves hearing himself talk. I counted 19 of 23 posts that were Legions. On a thread where he had like 50 other Posters banned.

Anyway, I never heard of her either (maybe this is a 'chick' thread) but a 'red scarf on a doorknob' doesn't sound like a way most people (and most women) would commit suicide. (?)

No not trumps fault. He is responsible for almost everything he is accused of. Play a different card, pimp. Not your fault you have no hand to play really. Must suck ass to feel the need to defend that scum trump

She may have. Did she work for Hillary?

Vera Wang is probably the only design bird whose name I recognize immediately other than old legends like Coco Chanel.

Hillary wore a Kate Spade coat last November.. $1300.. Big deal.

Legion sure wastes a lot of space........... Hanging from a doorknob is actually pretty common.

"Hanging from a doorknob is actually pretty common."
Really?

I would think sleeping pills and alcohol for women and a gunshot for men.
Just thinking about trying to choke yourself out on a doorknob is ... difficult. I can see people trying that, and then half way through gaging, just stand up gasping for breath and saying "Fuck That!"
