Brand strategy and consumer
Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger rank among the top five brands in every region served; consumer research finds strongest positioning with Gen Z and young millennials, especially status shoppers and style enthusiasts.
Strategy centers on returning to each brand’s core DNA and making it current: Calvin Klein’s underwear and denim heritage, and Tommy Hilfiger’s classic American style tied to pop culture.
Status shoppers and style enthusiasts, together with their value-oriented counterparts, represent roughly 40% of the market.
Operating priorities and macro
The approach is systematic, repeatable growth: identify priority categories and franchises, invest in product newness and innovation, and connect creative direction to the business engine.
Global capabilities are being built across brands and regions to make initiatives faster, cheaper and more efficient, while improving time to market; greater financial and operational discipline is planned.
Europe faced tough consumer sentiment amid the Middle East war; from Q1 to Q2, e-commerce grew YoY and D2C, including stores, improved sequentially.
North America and APAC showed no major macro disruption; D2C growth and AUR expansion continued, while execution was emphasized as critical in tougher markets.
Product, marketing and channels
Calvin Klein underwear and denim make up roughly half of the brand; with the jeans lifestyle concept, those areas represent 80%. Tommy’s highlighted strengths include sweaters, outerwear and shirts.
D2C is showing the fastest impact from the strategy, with double-digit e-commerce traffic growth, e-commerce growth across brands and regions, AUR expansion, customer acquisition and improved retention.
Wholesale partnerships with Zalando, Amazon, Tmall and Macy’s are being strengthened through shared consumer knowledge and data; renovated Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger shop-in-shops at Macy’s in Miami were performing well.
The licensing transition is expected to finish by year-end; the $350 million go-forward licensing business is growing and total licensing is expected to begin growing next year.
Marketing is being connected more directly to products, stores and current-season sales; leadership cited campaign-linked denim sell-through and aims to scale disciplined, full-funnel activation.

Frequently asked questions
Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, and More
PVH Corp, formerly known as Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation, is an American global apparel company headquartered in New York City. The company owns and operates a portfolio of different clothing brands, including Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. The company's business model encompasses designing, manufacturing, and marketing apparel and related products, along with licensing agreements for various product lines. The company is headquartered in NYC, and its shares are listed on the NYSE.
An Eventful History
The origins of Phillips-Van Heusen trace back to the mid-19th century with Dramin Jones, a Prussian immigrant who established D. Jones & Sons, a shirt manufacturing firm, around 1865. Concurrently, in 1881, Moses Phillips and his wife Endel started hand-sewing shirts, selling them to coal miners in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, before expanding into a New York City-based shirt business. In 1907, following Dramin Jones's death in 1903, D. Jones & Sons merged with M. Phillips & Sons, forming Phillips-Jones. A key development occurred when Isaac Phillips collaborated with John Van Heusen, leading to their well-received Van Heusen shirt line. This partnership eventually resulted in Phillips-Jones acquiring Van Heusen and rebranding to Phillips-Van Heusen in 1957. The company adopted its current name, PVH, in 2011.
The Brands
The company's brand portfolio is a strategic mix of high-end designer labels and mainstream, accessible fashion, catering to a broad spectrum of consumers. Some of the most notable brands under the company’s ownership include the previously aforementioned Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger, as well as Van Heusen, Warners, and True & Co. The company competes in a highly competitive environment together with companies such as Ralph Lauren and Hanesbrands.
Licensing Neckties
The licensing business plays a key role in its operations, particularly in the necktie segment. This aspect of the company involves partnerships with renowned fashion brands, under which PVH produces and markets neckties. These licensing agreements enable PVH to use its expertise in textile production and distribution while incorporating the distinctive design elements of its partner brands. Some notable partnerships include Michael Kors (now owned by Tapestry), Arrow, DKNY, and several others.
