Before fashion businesses can put artificial intelligence to work or target the right shoppers online, they need good data and a deep understanding of who their customers are and what they want.

The role is changing as fashion companies break “digital” responsibilities out of their siloes, leading some to rethink the position.

How the American ‘accessible luxury’ group Tapestry can capitalise on its newly acquired brands and more from BoF’s Imran Amed.

By putting Coach, Michael Kors, Versace and other brands under one roof, the combined company instantly vaults to the top of US fashion groups and creates something genuinely new in the industry: an American accessible luxury giant.

The parent company of Coach is taking control of the brands, owned by Capri Holdings, to add heft to its portfolio and better compete with Europe’s luxury heavyweights.

The US luxury group that owns Coach, Kate Spade and Stuart Weitzman is focused on customer-centric tactics and products to grow in turbulent times, says the CEO in an interview for The State of Fashion 2023.

Crevoiserat has served as the group’s interim chief since Jide Zeitlin resigned amid misconduct allegations in July.

With everything from $850 cashmere sweaters to screen-printed tote bags, brands are using ‘vote’ merchandise to connect with consumers.

The Coach owner's net sales fell to $714.8 million, beating analyst forecasts of $663.4 million.
