A national fashion industry group has named Clayton-based Brown Shoe Co. its "Company of the Year" for 2015.


The Arlington, Va.-based American Apparel & Footwear Association will present Brown Shoe CEO Diane Sullivan with the annual American Image Award for best company in April.


The awards go back to 1977 and are meant to honor companies and employees who have "exemplified leadership, excellence, and outstanding achievement in all sectors of the apparel and footwear industry," according to the association.


The group has also named high-end Canadian chain Holt Renfrew as the retailer of the year; Cynthia Rowley, who leads the brand by the same name, as the designer of the year; and Kelly Osbourne, co-host of Fashion Police, as the year's "fashion maverick."


Brown Shoe reported third-quarter sales of $729.3 million, up from $702.8 million in the same period last year, and a profit of $33.1 million, up from $27.3 million last year.
