Leslie Wexner started a clothing store in his twenties, called The Limited. It was given this name as it only focused on women’s sportswear. It was a success and in two years time Wexner owned three stores. The Limited continued to grow and in 1969 Wexner took Limited Brands public to finance further expansion. The company continued to expand with acquisitions as Victoria’s Secret (1982) and Abercrombie & Fitch in 1988. The Abercrombie & Fitch brand was sold in 1996. The Limited brand was sold to Sun Capital Partners in 2007. Leslie Wexner owns one of the largest art collections in the World, including a USD 40 million Picasso painting. At the time of build Wexner’s yacht Limitless was the largest American owned yacht.
