We are beyond thrilled to have actress and producer Emma Roberts as the face of our first-ever celebrity campaign for LOFT. We first partnered with Emma as part of our Summer of LOFT campaign and immediately knew she was the perfect ambassador for the brand. She’s smart, creative, beautiful and fun – and she loves LOFT.   LOFT x Emma Holiday 2025 launches on Monday. Thank you to David Moin and WWD for the wonderful feature on this exciting new partnership. https://lnkd.in/gDWYZfyt

Our Executive Chair and CEO, Lizanne Kindler, has joined the Board of The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. This meaningful next step reflects her longstanding commitment to giving back and we couldn't be prouder.

We are so honored to have been a part of the Delta Air Lines Breast Cancer One charter flight which honors Delta employee survivors. The 180 passengers received a Sisterhood of Strength tote bag filled with KnitWell brands merchandise and were greeted by special guests including The Breast Cancer Research Foundation President and CEO, Donna McKay, and Hall of Fame Quarterback Tom Brady, whose own mom is a breast cancer survivor.    The Sisterhood of Strength continues to grow. And with the many partners of @The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, together we are working towards a future without breast cancer.

We are proud to announce the appointment of Trish Donnelly as Division CEO for Chico's FAS, Inc. In this newly created role, Trish will oversee all product and customer-facing functions across the Chico’s, Soma, and White House Black Market brands, while also leading the day-to-day operations of KnitWell Group’s Fort Myers campus.   Trish brings extensive experience in specialty retail and luxury brands across the fashion retail industry. Most recently, she was President of The Row. Prior to that, she served as the CEO of Calvin Klein Global and PVH North America. Earlier in her career Trish spent seven years at Urban Outfitters, ultimately serving as the Global CEO of the Urban Outfitters Group. She also held senior leadership roles at Steven Alan, J. Crew, Cole Haan, and Ralph Lauren.   “We are thrilled to welcome Trish Donnelly to our executive team,” said Lizanne Kindler, Executive Chair and Chief Executive Officer of KnitWell Group. “Trish is an exceptional leader with a proven record of success and is widely respected for uniting teams around a shared vision and for delivering results. Her passion for retail and dedication to customers are truly unmatched. We are excited for the impact we know she and our talented associates will create together.”   “I am honored to step into this role,” said Donnelly. “Chico’s, Soma, and White House Black Market are iconic American brands within a portfolio of some of the most recognized women’s fashion retailers worldwide. The opportunities ahead are extraordinary, and I look forward to partnering with the teams to write the next chapter of growth and success for our brands.”  

We were honored to be a part of Dress for Success Worldwide's annual Women Who Inspire Luncheon in New York last week. Talbots Brand President and the DFS’s newest board member, Barbara Wagner, joined interim DFS CEO, Joanie Bily, to introduce the 2026 Women Who Inspire campaign.   The campaign, which launches in March in conjunction with International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, will raise critical funds for programs that give women the tools and confidence to thrive at work and in life. Our partnership with Dress for Success has spanned more than a decade and together we have helped tens of thousands of women rewrite their stories and gain economic independence. And we look forward to continuing this important work.

Things got a little ‘cheeky’ in Lower Manhattan today as Soma took over Iconic Magazines in honor of their new Vanishing Lace Back Panties and NYFW.   Customers, influencers and celebrities like Jackie Tohn from the Netflix hit Nobody Wants This enjoyed hot coffee, hot buns, and the latest in no ride, no roll, no show intimates from the company by women, for women.
