Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
Capri Holdings' Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo consumer databases grew 8% and 7% y/y, respectively.
Michael Kors' Saint-Tropez campaign generated more than 100 million impressions with 14 influencers.
Jimmy Choo's limited-edition Bon Bon events drove a 40% increase in very important client sales.
Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI - Free Report) is benefiting from stronger consumer engagement across Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo. In the first quarter of fiscal 2027, Michael Kors’ global consumer database increased 8% year over year, while Jimmy Choo’s rose 7%. The gains reflect targeted brand-building initiatives designed to expand reach and deepen customer connections.
Michael Kors reinforced its modern jet-set positioning through immersive storytelling, global events and destination-driven experiences. A Saint-Tropez Hotel Stories activation featuring 14 global influencers generated more than 100 million impressions. Met Gala appearances elevated brand awareness and desirability, while Capri’s analytics capabilities are helping create more personalized consumer connections.
Jimmy Choo’s marketing efforts delivered measurable results. Its Natural Reflection campaign showcased new hero products, while a Nice influencer trip involving 16 content creators generated nearly 50 million impressions. Curated events tied to limited-edition Bon Bon bags drove a 40% increase in very important client sales, supporting database growth.
Product innovation is reinforcing this engagement. Michael Kors’ Hamilton, Laila and Nolita handbags performed well, with smaller silhouettes helping attract younger customers. Jimmy Choo posted double-digit accessories growth, led by Bon Bon and Cinch, while newer Bar and Curve groups broadened its reach. Expanding casual footwear offers another avenue to increase purchase frequency.
Encouraging engagement trends accompanied better-than-expected profitability. Capri’s first-quarter revenues declined 3.5% to $769 million, but adjusted operating income increased about 40% to $28 million and adjusted earnings rose approximately 30% to 67 cents per share. Management expects fiscal 2027 revenues of roughly $3.4 billion and adjusted earnings of about $2.15 per share. Converting database growth into sustained sales remains central to Capri’s recovery.
