Digital Brands Group announced that its collegiate licensing brand AVO generated a 221% year-over-year revenue increase from August 1 through September 11, 2026, while cutting digital marketing expenditures by 78% compared with the same period last year. During that period AVO also achieved a 3.65x return on ad spend, and weekly net revenue for universities launched in 2026 rose 442% from Week 1 to Week 6.

CEO Hil Davis said the company is targeting a 5x ROAS, which would provide a foundation to scale digital advertising investment alongside revenue. The commentary also noted that the global luxury apparel market is projected to reach $89.7 billion in 2026 and $106.1 billion by 2030, while the broader global luxury-goods market is estimated at $416 billion in 2026 and nearly $579 billion by 2030, and Grand View Research estimates a $126 billion global premium sportswear market in 2026 that could reach $174.3 billion by 2030.
