ABG Showcases Vast Brand Slate

NORTH AMERICA–Authentic Brands Group hosted its first-ever Media Day, highlighting new offerings for its slate of 30 celebrity and fashion brands that will hit stores for holiday and spring shopping.

April 6, 2018

New products on the way for Juicy Couture, Aeropostale, TapOut, Muhammad Ali and more.

The sheer diversity of new product headed to shelves is almost overwhelming, with ABG firing on all cylinders for all of its brands, including its latest acquisition, the high-end fashion label Herve Leger.

With such an expansive portfolio, its no surprise that ABG is looking to expand globally. Aided by a new investment from

growth equity firm General Atlantic

, the company will open new offices in London, Hong Kong, Mexico, Los Angeles and Shanghai within the next year.

Rather than tell you about all the new product plans, we thought we’d just show you. Here are just some of the highlights of what ABG has in the works:


ABG's Muhammad Ali Enterprises has teamed up with the street brand Sprayground for a limited edition version of their popular backpack. The Ali x Sprayground backpacks will be available at a one-day pop-up and Fight Night event taking place Tuesday, Nov. 21 in NYC's Times Square.


ABG showed off the new line from its latest acquistion, high-end fashion label Herve Leger, which will debut in spring. ABG bought the brand from fellow brand management company Marquee Brands at the end of October.


ABG is taking the Juicy Couture brand well beyond its velour roots, with new apparel and accessories offerings that were first showcased at New York Fashion Week this fall. Comprised of two lines - Juicy Black Label (sold at Lord & Taylor, Bloomingdale's, Harrod's, Selfridges, Topshop and more) and the diffusion line Juicy by Juicy (sold at Bloomingdale's and Lord & Taylor and with an exclusive footwear capsule at Foot Locker). ABG also plans to re-open freestanding Juicy stores in the U.S. when the time is right. And the brand is tapping into the customization trend with on-site track suit personalization at Bloomingdale's.


The company is planning a diffusion line of handbags for Judith Leiber, making the brand available at a more affordable price point ($400 vs. $5000 for a bag). The Juidith Leiber brand will also step into a new footwear partnership in the near future. (Pictured here: The brand's recent collaboration with Alexander Wang)
