Mike Ashley\u2019s Frasers Group snapped up Missguided in June last year. <\/p>\n

Missguided collapsed into administration\u00a0after suppliers accused the business of millions of pounds worth of outstanding payments.<\/p>\n

But Frasers Group, which also owns Sports Direct and House of Fraser, confirmed it had bought the intellectual property of the retailer and sister brand Mennace for around \u00a320million.<\/p>\n

It confirmed Missguided will continue to be operated by administrators for a transition period of around eight weeks.<\/p>\n

In July, The Sun reported that the retail empire saw pre-tax profits almost double from \u00a3335.6million to \u00a3660.7million in the year to the end of April.<\/p>\n

Its boost in profits came as the group \u2014 which now includes brands and businesses ranging from\u00a0Agent Provocateur\u00a0to Sofa.com, Gieves & Hawkes and Flannels \u2014 saw sales rise by 15.8 per cent to \u00a35.6billion.<\/p>\n

Missguided, a Manchester-based company, was set up in 2009 by\u00a0Nitin Passi, 39, with a \u00a350,000 loan from his father Danny, a clothing supplier multi-millionaire.<\/p>\n

The young entrepreneur soon became known for his love of the high life, his pink Lamborghini and an instinct for knowing what young women wanted to wear.<\/p>\n

By the mid 2010s, the company had become a big name in the industry amid competitors\u00a0Boohoo,\u00a0Nasty Gal\u00a0and\u00a0Pretty Little Thing.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
