In January 2009 the label received the "Designer of the Year" at the Swedish Elle Style Awards.[1] The brand filed for bankruptcy in April 2014. By then, Astrid Olsson and Lee Cotter had already sold the company to Göte David Johansson.[2]

The label carried two lines; a ready to wear line as well as a couture inspired line that went under the name "By the no".
