Mytheresa sales rise despite luxury slowdown
German luxury retailer Mytheresa saw 8% sales growth overall and 14% growth in the United States during Q1 of the 2025 fiscal year, despite continued slowing in the luxury market. The retailer attributes its success to personalized capsules and experiences tailored to its top customers. Mytheresa is still awaiting EU approval of its merger with Yoox Net-A-Porter, the completion of which will make the company the internet’s largest luxury retailer. {Mytheresa}
Drunk Elephant issues a voluntary recall
Beauty brand Drunk Elephant issued a voluntary recall on batches of its Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleaner, Protini Polypeptide Cream and Lala Retro Whipped Cream after a mix-up of preservatives and surfactants. Formulation issues may cause skin irritation and product separation, and products without preservatives will likely see increased bacteria and yeast contents due to their shortened shelf lives. Impacted batches were sold between May and November of 2024. All customers who purchased affected items are eligible for a full refund and replacement, which they can acquire via an online return form. {Allure}

How fashion and beauty trends foreshadowed the election outcome
The fashion and beauty businesses began to swing right after the pandemic, embracing trends like “quiet luxury,” “trad wives” and “clean girl” makeup. While the items one wears do not directly correlate with party affiliation, cross-industry shifts away from progressive messaging and favor of conservative American ideals served as a precursor to Republican wins across the country. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}
