US’ Macy’s celebrates I.N.C.’s 40th anniversary with Christian Siriano
“For 40 years, I.N.C. has been a cornerstone of Macy’s private brand portfolio, delivering the latest fashion designed to inspire and empower women,” said Emily Erusha-Hilleque, SVP of Private Brand, Design, and Trend at Macy’s. “To celebrate this milestone, we partnered with Christian, a true visionary whose designs celebrate individuality, inclusivity and bold expression. As we honor I.N.C.’s heritage, we are excited for our customers to experience this collection that celebrates fabulous style, trend and embraces the next chapter for the brand.”
Macy’s is marking I.N.C.’s 40th anniversary with a fall collection curated by CFDA award-winning designer Christian Siriano.
The collection blends heritage and modern style, featuring exclusive artwork, limited-edition T-shirts, customised blazers, and a couture dress for NYFW.
A campaign with top models and Herald Square displays highlight the launch, with proceeds from auctions benefitting charity.
Siriano has established himself as a tour de force in the fashion world since launching his eponymous collection in 2008, following his studies in London under Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen. Siriano’s designs have been worn by today’s biggest names including Dr. Jill Biden, Michelle Obama, Kamala Harris, Angelina Jolie, Oprah, Zendaya, Ariana Grande, Julianne Moore, Lady Gaga, Tiffany Haddish, Billy Porter, Cardi B, Whoopi Goldberg, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Coolidge and more.
“Collaborating with Macy’s to celebrate 40 years of I.N.C. has been such a meaningful project,” said Siriano. “I.N.C. has played an iconic role in shaping fashion, and this collection is meant to honor that incredible legacy while also reimagining what modern, confident style can look like today. For me, it’s about curating pieces that empower individuality and bring joy to getting dressed.”
Capturing the spirit of this collaboration, Siriano designed an exclusive original artwork to be featured on limited-edition t-shirts, which are now available for purchase online and in select Macy’s stores. In celebration of 40 years of I.N.C., Siriano took 40 signature black blazers from the new collection, transforming each with his distinctive touch to create one-of-a-kind pieces that embody I.N.C.’s statement-making style. In addition, he created a unique couture dress which will be unveiled during New York Fashion Week (NYFW). Both the blazers and the couture dress will be auctioned in September with proceeds going to charity.
Siriano also stars in I.N.C.’s fall campaign alongside a dynamic group of models, including Candice Huffine, Daiane Sodré and Martha Hunt, who were selected for their individuality, presence and connection to the brand. Photographed by Alexi Lubomirski, the campaign will come to life across digital platforms, social media and select stores nationwide. Macy’s iconic Herald Square windows will also feature the collection and the one-of-a-kind blazers. Siriano will present his spring 2026 collection during NYFW on September 12. The show is sponsored by Macy’s and will be staged at the Herald Square flagship in New York City.

India’s Pearl Global’s FY26 revenue crosses $521 mn milestone
The company’s adjusted EBITDA, excluding Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP) expenses, rose around 14 per cent YoY to ₹468 crore, while EBITDA margin improved by 20 basis points to around 9.3 per cent. Excluding the reciprocal tariff impact of around ₹36 crore and incremental losses of around ₹13 crore in Bihar and Guatemala, adjusted EBITDA margin stood at around 10.3 per cent.
Pallab Banerjee, managing director, Pearl Global Industries, said: “FY26 marked the company’s second consecutive year of double-digit growth and improved profitability. This performance further solidifies the position of Pearl Global’s diversified operating model and disciplined execution across geographies.”
Pearl Global Industries has reported its highest-ever FY26 revenue of ₹5,025 crore (~$523.93 million), up 11.5 per cent YoY, driven by volume growth and value-added products.
PAT rose 17 per cent to ₹270 crore (~$28.15 million), while Q4 revenue hit ₹1,314 crore (~$137 million).
The company shipped 78.1 million pieces.
Its net worth stands at ₹1,438 crore (~$149.93 million).
He said that geopolitical shifts and Gulf conflicts could lead to energy cost escalation, affecting raw material and logistics costs. However, the company remains prepared to manage these headwinds, supported by its diversified manufacturing base, strong order book, and broad market presence.
The profit after tax (PAT) increased 17 per cent YoY to ₹270 crore (~$28.15 million), the company said in a press release.
On a standalone basis, FY26 revenue stood at ₹1,081 crore, while adjusted EBITDA was ₹67 crore, with EBITDA margin improving by 60 basis points to 6.2 per cent, mainly due to cost restructuring. Standalone PAT rose to ₹69 crore from ₹55 crore in the previous year.
The company’s net worth stood at ₹1,438 crore (~$149.93 million) as of March 31, 2026, compared with ₹1,146 crore a year earlier.
“In FY26, Group delivered another year of resilient performance against a complex geopolitical backdrop. Group achieved, among others, two major milestones this year: revenue crossed INR 5,000 crore mark and installed capacity surpassed 100 million pieces per annum,” said Pulkit Seth, vice-chairman and non-executive director, PGIL.
Seth added that the global apparel industry faced tariff-related disruptions during FY26, with the company’s India operations impacted by tariffs and penal duties imposed by the US. However, he added that Pearl Global leveraged its diversified, multi-country manufacturing presence to mitigate these challenges and deliver double-digit growth.
For the fourth quarter (Q4) of FY26, PGIL posted its highest-ever quarterly revenue of ₹1,314 crore (~$137 million), up 6.9 per cent YoY. Adjusted EBITDA rose 13.7 per cent to ₹135 crore, with margin at 10.3 per cent, the highest EBITDA margin recorded by the company in any quarter. PAT for the quarter stood at ₹81 crore, up 24.6 per cent YoY, PGIL said in a press release.
Standalone revenue during the quarter stood at ₹304 crore, adjusted EBITDA at ₹24 crore, and PAT at ₹14 crore.
PGIL shipped its highest-ever volumes in Q4 FY26 and FY26, at 22 million pieces and 78.1 million pieces respectively. Its annual installed capacity crossed 100 million pieces, reaching around 101 million pieces.
The ongoing capex in Bangladesh is expected to be completed by the first half of FY27 and will add around 6-7 million pieces of capacity during the year.
