Vince Holdings CEO Brendan Hoffman said,: “We are extremely proud of our third quarter performance, delivering healthy sales growth across all channels while exceeding expectations for both top and bottom line results. Our direct-to-consumer segment is showing broad-based strength, benefiting from enhancements we have made to the customer experience. This includes the store renovations from earlier this year, as well as an e-commerce site refresh, increased marketing support, and the launch of drop-ship capabilities expanding the breadth and depth of our assortment online in the third quarter. This momentum has continued into the fourth quarter with a record holiday sales weekend in direct-to-consumer.
“As we look ahead, I’m more confident than ever in our trajectory as we successfully balance disciplined execution with strategic reinvestment to position the Vince Holding Corp. platform for sustained long-term profitable growth.”
