Galvin holds 30 years of executive experience, most recently serving as chairman of Cherokee Inc. Galvin also served as chief operating officer and European president of Sports Brands International, chief executive officer of Elie Tahari and president of Camuto Group.

"I am pleased to assume leadership of Iconix Brand Group,” says Galvin. “Iconix maintains a prestigious portfolio of brands and known stature in the industry. I will be working closely with all of our partners and our leadership team to broaden our presence and position our brands to maximize their potential."

"Our board is extremely pleased that Bob has joined Iconix,” says Peter Cuneo, interim chief executive officer and chairman of the board, Iconix. “We believe that his past leadership experiences in our industry bode well for Iconix. He will hit the ground running. Bob has also been very successful when faced with particularly fluid situations. His unique skills in this regard make him a good match to the current challenges facing Iconix. He is an adept problem solver. I look forward to working with Bob in the future."

As Galvin steps into his new post, Cuneo will transition into his role as executive chairman.
