In 1974 Janice was able to buy out her original investors and traded under her own name.[10] She expanded her company in a new premises in Poland Street, Soho, and, with her sister Wendy as head of sales, a new era of creative and global business success began. Her collections were sold in London stores Harrods, Harvey Nichols and Selfridges, Chic of Hampstead and boutiques all over Britain. In the United States her lines were carried in Bergdorf Goodman (where her collection filled all the Fifth Avenue windows of the building), Henri Bendel, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdales, Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom in Seattle and Canada, Seibu in Japan, Joyce Boutique Hong Kong and Georges in Sydney.
The Fashion Museum, Bath holds several pieces of her work, and the Victoria and Albert Museum also holds three of her pieces..."
