Read MoreHide Full Article

Key Takeaways

  • RVLV's fashion category outperformed overall sales growth, while beauty and men's also posted strong gains.
  • Brand activations generated hundreds of millions of impressions and drove a record number of new customers.
  • Grow-Good Beauty launches sold out quickly, with strong repeat rates and nearly 670,000 Instagram followers.

Revolve Group, Inc. (RVLV - Free Report) highlighted that the fashion apparel category continued to outperform the company’s overall net sales growth in the second quarter of 2026, supported by strong performance across key wardrobe essentials. Meanwhile, emerging categories, including beauty, men’s and home, continued to perform strongly, outpacing overall business growth. The performance reflects continued momentum from both the company’s core apparel assortment and its expanding category mix.

Revolve Group had an active second quarter of brand building, with impactful activations at REVOLVE Festival and Stagecoach, its first-ever men’s brand marketing and World Cup activations and lifestyle events in Monaco and Spain. These initiatives collectively generated hundreds of millions of press and social media impressions. The company was pleased with the results, which drove a record number of new customers and strong growth in active customers.

Additionally, beauty represents an additional growth opportunity through Grow-Good Beauty, the Cardi B joint venture. Its first three launches sold out within hours, with key products selling out within minutes, while the late-July drop delivered the highest repeat and conversion rates of any launch to date. The brand had already attracted 670,000 Instagram followers, and nearly one-third of Grow-Good orders in early July came from customers who had previously purchased in April or May. Importantly, management said that Grow-Good customers are nearly all incremental, with very little overlap with REVOLVE and FWRD, while its gross margin is highly accretive.

The broader category momentum also continued into July, with management highlighting men’s and beauty as categories that outpaced overall growth. Management pointed to its years of investment in category expansion as one factor behind the continued progress, reinforcing category expansion as part of its longer-term growth strategy.
