British fashion brand Christopher Kane, whose clothes have been worn by Michelle Obama and the Princess of Wales, is seeking to refinance or find a buyer as it fights for survival.

The retailer, once feted as a sign of British creativity, has warned it could have to enter insolvency proceedings if it cannot find a solution. It has filed a notice of intention to appoint administrators FTS Recovery, according to company filings.
