Glossy compiled the state of fashion and beauty and brands’ next steps, accordingly, based on conversations at our recent E-Commerce Summit.

Launched by Wayfair to be its luxury counterpart, 9-year-old Perigold is in growth mode — against all odds. In 2025, the home furnishings retailer opened its first two stores, in Houston and West Palm Beach. And just last month, it invested in its first major collaboration.

On Monday, David’s Bridal announced the launch of a wholesale business. Ahead of the news, Glossy met with David’s Bridal CEO Kelly Cook to learn more about the company’s growth and evolution plans, which also include opening shop-in-shops in department stores.

In March 2025, Victoria's Secret CEO Hillary Super introduced the “Path to Potential” plan, centered on right-tracking the company through four focus areas. One year later, the efforts are paying off.

Indeed, regardless of founder or fashion savvy, the brand’s growth has been extraordinary: Its e-commerce sales grew 60% in 2025, and the company is projecting $150 million in retail sales in 2026.
