Our Legacy accelerates international expansion with exclusive opening at Printemps Haussmann
Published
October 26, 2025
Our Legacy continues to grow and is strengthening its presence in France with the opening of two permanent concessions at Printemps Haussmann, one dedicated to women and the other to men. This exclusive presence within a Parisian department store is accompanied by a large-scale campaign, visible across all Printemps window displays since October 15. Shot in New York, the campaign features street-cast models and friends of the brand, evoking the urban dialogue between Paris and New York.
The spaces, conceived by Our Legacy’s creative director, Cristopher Nying, in collaboration with the architecture practice Profan, embody the brand’s aesthetic DNA: a constant tension between classicism and singularity. Stainless steel, translucent polycarbonate sheets and a rigid, industrial-looking plastic express the refined restraint and spirit of experimentation that define the Swedish label.
Founded in Stockholm in 2005 by Jockum Hallin, Cristopher Nying and Richardos Klarén, Our Legacy has established itself as one of Europe’s most influential niche labels. Born out of a graphic T-shirt project, it evolved into a highly recognisable menswear line before introducing womenswear and genderless design in 2018. The brand is distinguished by its minimalist approach.
In 2016, the launch of Our Legacy Work Shop underscored its sustainable and experimental ethos. This creative laboratory dedicated to upcycling and recycling textile offcuts has given rise to limited collections and numerous prestigious collaborations, including Stüssy, Emporio Armani, Converse and Artek.
Today, Our Legacy operates a selective network combining its own boutiques, concessions and partner retailers. The brand has two stores in Stockholm, one in Berlin, one in London, four in Seoul within Hyundai Department Store, and one in Tokyo at Parco. It has also recently completed a successful launch at Nordstrom Men’s in New York, while a temporary concession is open at Harrods in London until December 2025.
Backed since late 2024 by a minority investment from LVMH Luxury Ventures, Our Legacy is consolidating its hybrid model, combining direct-to-consumer sales, selective distribution and a growing international presence. The brand does not disclose its most recent revenue figure but posted €43.6 million in 2023, and reports continued growth in 2024. Our Legacy is embarking on a new phase of expansion, marked by the gradual opening of flagship stores worldwide.
In this spirit, Our Legacy’s arrival at Printemps Haussmann, together with the establishment of a company in France, symbolises this ambition to expand in one of the industry’s major cities.

Bangladesh RMG workers part of trade unions get 10% higher wages: BIDS
At the sectoral level, RMG industry workers earn 19-22 per cent higher wage, reflecting stronger compliance regimes, formalised structures and higher skill intensity, the study by the Bangladesh Institute of Development Studies (BIDS) showed.
The findings of the study, conducted on 3,005 workers across 20 industries in three districts surrounding Dhaka, were recently shared at the Annual BIDS Conference on Development in Dhaka.
Readymade garment workers in Bangladesh who are part of trade unions earn 10 per cent higher gross wages than non-unionised RMG and non-RMG workers, a study by the Bangladesh Institute of Development Studies (BIDS) has revealed.
Meanwhile, climate change is affecting production in garment factories in Bangladesh as rising temperatures reduce worker productivity, another BIDS study found.
BIDS research director Mahmudul Hasan said empirical results show an overall unionisation rate of 11.35 per cent, according to domestic media reports.
While part of this differential is attributed to greater experience and tenure among union members, the wage premium remains positive and statistically significant even after controlling for these factors, he was cited as saying by domestic media reports.
Meanwhile, climate change is affecting production in garment factories in Bangladesh as rising temperatures reduce worker productivity, another BIDS study found.
BIDS research associate Kazi Zubair Hossain said annual productivity growth in the garment sector reached 4.19 per cent between 2014 and 2023 due to technological improvements.
The study noted that climate refugees are increasingly taking up jobs in the garment sector. As their numbers rise, more may enter the workforce, which “may have negative impacts on wages”.
The study said climate pressures could heighten gender-based violence and harassment as productivity falls and socio-economic vulnerability increases.
Pressures to cut emissions may support environmental improvements in factories, although the shift to green energy in Bangladesh remains slow, it added.

Caleres sales lift on Stuart Weitzman acquisition
Published
December 11, 2025
Caleres on Tuesday reported a 6.6% uptick in sales to $790.1 million for the third quarter, on the back double-digit growth in the American footwear firm’s brand portfolio.
The St. Louis-based company said brand portfolio segment sales surged 18.8%, thanks to the recently acquired Stuart Weitzman brand.
Without the acquisition, which was announced in February, sales increased just 4.6% on last year.
Elsewhere, Famous Footwear sales decreased 2.2%, with comparable sales down 1.2% for the three months ending November 1.
During the quarter, net earnings fell to $2.4 million, or earnings per diluted share of $0.07, compared to net earnings of $41.4 million or earnings per diluted share of $1.19 in the prior-year period.
“Caleres delivered third quarter sales results that were ahead of our internal expectations, highlighted by organic sales growth in our brand portfolio segment, strong lead brands performance, sequential improvement in trends at Famous Footwear, and accelerated e-commerce momentum in both segments of our business,” said Jay Schmidt, president and chief executive officer at Caleres.
“With the recent addition of Stuart Weitzman, our brand portfolio now drives nearly half our sales and more than half our operating earnings. As we expected, we experienced pressure on our earnings from tariffs and near-term acquisition dilution, however, the fundamentals of our business are improving.”
Caleres acquired footwear brand Stuart Weitzman from luxury heavyweight Tapestry in February for just $105 million. The cash deal was completed this summer.

Published
December 11, 2025
Tommy Hilfiger has announced the appointment of Sergio Pérez as its new global menswear ambassador, reinforcing its long-standing relationship with Formula 1 and its standing at the intersection of sport, style and contemporary culture.
The announcement comes in the run-up to the 2026 season, when the Mexican driver will return to the grid with the Cadillac Formula 1 team, with Tommy Hilfiger as the team’s official kit partner.
“We have long championed drivers’ freedom to express themselves through style and, as Formula 1 continues to embrace fashion and entertainment, its stars have become truly global figures,” said Tommy Hilfiger.
He added that Pérez, an icon in Mexico and an international fan favourite, is a figure capable of inspiring new generations with his talent, confidence and personality.
From Pérez’s perspective, the collaboration also reflects the paddock’s cultural evolution.
“Tommy brought style to the paddock and gave drivers the confidence to show who they are away from the track. He has always been at the centre of the action,” Pérez said.
He explained that returning to competition with the brand marks a new chapter he embraces with enthusiasm and commitment, aligned with his preparations for the next sporting cycle.
The partnership encompasses menswear collections, fan merchandise inspired by the world of racing, timepieces, and participation in the brand’s campaigns and events.
Tommy Hilfiger adds Pérez to its line-up of athletes with global cultural impact, at a time when Formula 1 is extending its influence into image, consumer culture and fashion.
