Bebe Stores Names New Chief Financial Officer

Women’s clothing retailer Bebe Stores Inc. named Walter Parks its chief financial officer.

Parks joins Bebe from Wet Seal Inc., where he served as chief administrative officer.

The appointment comes after Bebe’s announcement in October that CFO John Kyees resigned to take the same post at Urban Outfitters Inc.

Last month, Bebe’s newly named chief merchandising officer, Gregory Gemette, said he would not join the company because of contract commitments he had with another clothing retailer.
