CEO Bonnie Takhar, who has been with the brand since relaunch in 2007, has been fired. Creative differences are reportedly the reason Takhar was let go.Sarah Jessica Parker, who joined the house in January, taking an equity stake and the role of president and chief creative officer, was reportedly upset after learning that the Halston board requested Takhar leave the company. A source told Page Six: "Sarah and Bonnie had a meeting on Friday in Halston's offices to discuss problems with the latest collection. Sarah has been a strong supporter of Bonnie for a very long time, and has been the sole voice supporting her against the board and shareholders. She has been fighting this for a very long time. She was emotional (maybe because she is next) and upset because this finally came to a head."
