Kirkland & Ellis has picked up another mandate for a struggling U.K. high street brand, as retailers struggle to cope in a more pressurised environment due to COVID-19.

Its London restructuring team is advising clothes and accessories retailer AllSaints on company voluntary arrangement (CVA) applications in the U.K. and North America, according to a statement by the company.

U.K.-headquartered fashion label All Saints said in a statement on Thursday that the coronavirus pandemic had "inevitably had a substantial and sudden impact on its short-term sales", as a result of which the company is asking its landlords for a rent cut.
