CEO Bjørn Gulden added: "Our consumer, retail and trade research has shown that we can sell this remaining inventory in 2024 for at least the cost price.

So she turned to a novel solution to get through the season: Buy now, pay later. It's tough to say how buy now, pay later fits into the country's overall debt picture. Klarna, PayPal and Affirm all declined to share buy now, pay later delinquency rates with CNBC. Affirm has said the short-term and high-velocity nature of its buy now, pay later service makes traditional credit metrics less relevant. Klarna said its global default rate for its overall business including buy now, pay later is less than 1%.

An image of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who died after being shot by Alec Baldwin on the set of his movie "Rust", is displayed at a vigil in her honour in Albuquerque, New Mexico, October 23, 2021. A New Mexico grand jury on Friday indicted actor Alec Baldwin on involuntary manslaughter charges in connection with the fatal 2021 shooting on the set of "Rust." Baldwin is facing two separate types of involuntary manslaughter charges, court records show. He is facing one count of involuntary manslaughter, negligent use of a firearm, and involuntary manslaughter, without due caution or circumspection. Charges were dropped against the actor in April after "new facts" emerged that demanded further investigation, prosecutors said previously.

Beyond Yoga's founder Michelle Wahler, along with its Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer Jesse Adams, will both be stepping down. "We have arrived at a natural inflection point for this incredible brand," Levi's incoming CEO Michelle Gass said in a statement. Retailers such as Lululemon and Nike have long dominated the category, with Beyond Yoga and Gap-owned Athleta following close behind. But upstarts such as Alo Yoga and Vuori have been nipping at their heels and taking market share. In August, Athleta named former Alo Yoga President Chris Blakeslee its next CEO.

Wayfair is cutting 13% of its global workforce as the digital home goods retailer looks to trim down its structure, cut out layers of management and reduce costs, it announced Friday. The company plans to lay off around 1,650 employees, including 19% of its corporate team, with a focus on people in management and leadership positions, the company said. The restructuring – the third Wayfair has implemented since summer 2022 – is expected to save the company about $280 million, it said. The layoffs come after Hasbro , Etsy and Macy's all announced cuts to their workforces as retailers contend with slowing demand and an uncertain economy. As a result, Wayfair has needed to make cuts to ensure its staffing levels are proportionate to how much business it's doing.

China's powerful internet regulator is conducting a security review of Shein as the fast-fashion giant gears up for its highly anticipated U.S. initial public offering, CNBC has learned. The review focuses on how Shein handles information about its employees, partners and suppliers in the region, The Wall Street Journal reported. In 2021, Beijing launched a similar security review of ride-hailing giant Didi Global just days after it went public on the New York Stock Exchange and raised some $4.4 billion. Following Didi's downfall, all Chinese companies seeking an overseas IPO are now subject to a security review and government approval in China. If the reviews turn up information that doesn't sit well with Chinese regulators, they could squash the deal.

Wolverine World Wide has sold Sperry to brand management firm and Reebok owner Authentic Brands Group, as the footwear retailer looks to focus on better performing assets, the company announced Thursday. Aldo will also work with the brand on footwear design, production and global distribution. It already works closely with Authentic on running brands like Roxy and Brooks Brothers. The deal will generate $130 million, which Wolverine plans to use to pay down debt, it said. Wolverine originally acquired Sperry, a 90-year-old brand, in 2012 from Payless ShoeSource owner Collective Brands in a $1.23 billion deal that also included Saucony, Stride Rite and Keds.

Since 2022, at least nine states — including six in 2023 — passed laws to impose harsher penalties for organized retail crime offenses, and New York and California could join that list. It's tough to determine whether theft offenses are up nationally, as it's a crime that often goes unreported and undetected. Experts previously told CNBC that laws that increase penalties for retail crime offenses may not actually reduce theft offenses, and could disproportionately harm marginalized groups. "Across our nation and our state, retail theft has surged, creating fear among customers and workers. Newsom this week also called for new legislation that would address organized retail crime.

ORLANDO, Fla. — As rumors swirl over whether Saks Fifth Avenue will acquire Neiman Marcus, Neiman's CEO told CNBC there's "no need" to sell the business, adding it's unlikely to change hands in the next five years. Some people close to the companies have told CNBC a merger between the two is inevitable, and is a matter of when, not if. But Neiman's CEO Geoffroy van Raemdonck said there is currently "no process to sell the company." Eventually, those owners will seek to offload the business, but van Raemdonck said it won't be any time soon. They have not yet received an offer that was large or attractive enough to move the needle, a source familiar with the matter previously told CNBC.

watch nowORLANDO, Fla. — Little is known about how much revenue Shein draws or just how profitable it is. But the fast-fashion company's sales are "a lot more" than the $30 billion it reportedly brings in annually, one of the retailer's key partners said Monday. "There's talks that they do 30 billion, do they do 40 billion? If Shein's sales are "a lot more" than $30 billion annually, its revenue would still be far smaller than that of retail giants such as Walmart and Amazon , which do hundreds of billions in sales annually. A sales total above $30 billion would mean Shein dwarfs American retailers such as Abercrombie & Fitch and American Eagle , which most recently reported annual sales of $3.7 billion and $5 billion, respectively.

In a statement, the company said: "For over 27 years, we have had the honor to partner with Tiger Woods, one of the greatest athletes the world has ever seen.

Nike shares plunged Friday after the athletic apparel maker cut its revenue outlook for the fiscal year, with sneaker retailer Foot Locker also feeling the blow. Foot Locker, which relies heavily on Nike products in its stores, closed down nearly 4%. Nike said in its earnings report Thursday that the company now expects its revenue to grow 1% for the fiscal year, down from the prior outlook of mid-single-digit growth. The company also said it was going to cut costs of upward of $2 billion over the next three years. The new outlook reflects increased headwinds "particularly in Greater China and EMEA," finance chief Matthew Friend said in the earnings call Thursday.

Nike on Thursday unveiled plans to cut costs by about $2 billion over the next three years as it lowered its sales outlook. Nike now expects full-year reported revenue to grow approximately 1%, compared to a prior outlook of up mid-single digits. Those costs are mostly related to employee severance costs, Nike said. During Nike's fiscal second quarter, it posted a strong earnings beat, indicating its cost-savings initiatives were already underway. Sales rose about 1% to $13.39 billion, from $13.32 billion a year earlier.

Lululemon on Thursday said it saw strong third-quarter demand and a positive start to the holiday shopping season, but the retailer's shares fell in extended trading after it gave a tepid fourth-quarter outlook. During the quarter, sales jumped 12% in North America and 49% internationally, but the retailer's holiday guidance came in light of expectations. For the full year, Lululemon expects sales to be between $9.55 billion and $9.58 billion, compared to estimates of between $8.11 billion and $9.90 billion, according to LSEG. He added that Lululemon is "encouraged" by the trends it has seen at the start of the holiday season. During Lululemon's third quarter, total comparable sales were up 13%, higher than the 12.4% jump analysts had expected, according to StreetAccount.

Lawmakers are ramping up their scrutiny of Shein after it confidentially filed to go public last week. "Urge the SEC to apply maximum scrutiny to Shein's business and management before letting it anywhere near our capital markets," Luetkemeyer said in the video, viewed by CNBC. They include legislation that would block Shein from trading in the U.S. or bar its shipments from coming into the country. Gallagher is also interested in pursuing reforms to the trade loophole known as the de minimis provision and expanding enforcement of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, the aide said. The committee is investigating Shein over its use of forced labor and de minimis — probes that are ongoing, Luetkemeyer said.

Shein has confidentially filed to go public in the U.S. as the Chinese-founded fast-fashion juggernaut looks to expand its global reach with a long-rumored initial public offering, CNBC has learned. Over the next few months, Shein will likely make tweaks to its paperwork and answer numerous questions from the agency. The filing will be made public once the company is ready to move forward with its IPO. He said, "there's no such thing as forced labor" in the Shein factories that he has visited. As Shein grew from an obscure Chinese retailer into a global behemoth with headquarters in Singapore, it largely stayed in the shadows.

American Dream megamall and entertainment complex in East Rutherford, N.J. After more than 17 years in the making, it finally opened October 25, 2019. New Jersey's American Dream mall – the second largest mall in the country – was evacuated minutes after it opened on Black Friday because of a bomb threat that was later deemed unfounded, police said. Police reopened American Dream around 9:15 a.m. for shoppers and retail workers, the mall said. "The mall has been deemed safe and American Dream will be returning to normal operations.

There's a dark cloud hanging over Black Friday. A slew of retailers have issued tepid, cautious or downright disappointing fourth-quarter outlooks over the last few weeks, casting a pall over the crucial holiday season right as they gear up for the biggest shopping day of the year. Even Dick's Sporting Goods and Abercrombie & Fitch – which both raised their full-year guidance on Tuesday after strong third quarters – managed to underwhelm with their holiday forecasts. "As we look at recent trends across the retail industry, dollar sales are being driven by higher prices with consumers buying fewer units per trip. When asked about the upcoming holiday season, Cornell said it was too soon to weigh in on early sales, saying only that the company was "watching the trends carefully."

The milestone marks the first time Nuuly has earned money since its launch in 2019, a goal for the company from the beginning as it looked to prove it could run a clothing rental business profitably. While there is wide demand for clothing rental services, particularly among younger consumers, the logistics of rental have made it difficult to make money, threatening the platforms' viability. watch nowNuuly and Rent's services are similar in that they both offer clothing for rent on a monthly basis for all sorts of occasions. The clothing rental market is still a budding industry. As brands look to convince consumers to rent instead of buy, offering a wide-ranging assortment has proven critical.

Abercrombie & Fitch on Tuesday blew past estimates as it posted a 20% jump in sales thanks to a strong back-to-school shopping season and growth at both its namesake brand and Hollister. For its fourth quarter, Abercrombie expects net sales growth to be up low double-digits compared to the prior year, which is in line with the 11.6% growth analysts had expected, according to LSEG. The expected uptick is driven by a higher gross profit rate, lower freight costs and higher sales prices. Abercrombie CEO Fran Horowitz told analysts the company has seen an "encouraging" start to the holiday shopping season. During the quarter, Abercrombie saw sales at its namesake brand grow by 30% to $548 million and revenue at Hollister grow by 11% to $509 million.

For its holiday quarter, American Eagle expects sales to be up high-single digits, ahead of the 3.4% sales growth analysts had expected, according to LSEG. However, it's expecting its operating income to be between $105 million and $115 million, which is mostly below expectations of $114 million, according to StreetAccount. For the full year, American Eagle is projecting revenue to be up mid-single digits, compared to previous guidance of up low single digits.

Sales and profits at Dick's Sporting Goods bounced back in the third quarter, leading the retailer to raise its full-year guidance Tuesday after it shocked investors earlier this year when it slashed its outlook over theft concerns. In a news release, the company said it's "excited" for the holiday season after seeing "strong" back-to-school sales. Excluding one time items, Dick's saw earnings per share of $2.85. But it still falls below the original outlook the company set earlier this year, when it said it expected earnings of $12.90 to $13.80. Dick's also raised its comparable sales outlook and expects them to be up between 0.5% and 2%, compared to a previous range of flat to up 2%.

"Anxious and concerned, Jane hastily returned to the T-Mobile store with her mother to speak to the store manager," the lawsuit states. "During this time, while Jane was seeking assistance at the T-Mobile store, the unauthorized person continued to log into her social media accounts on the iPhone XS Max." "T-Mobile has big incentive programs to induce customers to upgrade their devices and turn in their old ones. But the ugly truth is that T-Mobile knows that employees sometimes steal customers' most intimate images and videos from the old devices they relinquish," Goldberg added.
