SMCP Q2 Sales Up 3% With Full-price Strategy Boosting Growth

PARIS — SMCP, the parent company of Sandro and Maje, reported modest growth as the French fashion group continues to pursue a strict full-price strategy to stabilize sales across its high street brands. In the second quarter, sales rose 3.3 percent on an organic basis, reaching 304.5 million euros.

This growth was fueled by price increases and higher volumes, supported by the momentum from several U.S. store openings last year. Regional sales reached 49.6 million euros, despite the closure of 25 points of sale in Canada following the shutdown of Hudson's Bay locations. The company is currently seeking a new partner in Canada. In its home country of France, sales edged up by less than 1 percent to 104.9 million euros. Across the rest of the Europe, Middle East and Africa region (excluding France), sales increased by 3 percent to 106 million euros. SMCP noted that retail performance remained steady, while wholesale results were affected by timing shifts. In the Asia-Pacific region, sales declined by 6.2 percent to 43.9 million euros, reflecting a wave of store closures, including the exit from China. However, EMEA benefited from expansion into new markets, such as the Balkans and Jordan. By brand, Sandro posted a 3.3 percent increase in second-quarter sales, reaching 154.7 million euros. Sister brand Maje grew 4.9 percent to 113.6 million euros. Combined sales for Claudie Pierlot and men's brand Fursac totaled 36.2 million euros, down 1.3 million year-over-year, in line with expectations following the closure of four Claudie Pierlot stores during the period. For the first half of the year, total sales reached 601.1 million euros, representing a 3 percent organic increase.

Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi share rare glimpse of their blended family as they take Wolfie, Sienna and baby Athena to Lionesses' victory parade

Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi have shared a rare glimpse of their blended family as the royal couple joined Lionesses fans at their Euros victory parade in London today. The King's niece, 36, and Edoardo made their way to The Mall to watch the European champions lift their hard-earned trophy as a 65,000-strong crowd cheered for the squad. The Lionesses waved at onlookers from atop a bus as it travelled down the thoroughfare - with the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson also joining in the celebrations. The royal looked lovingly at her baby daughter, Athena Elizabeth Rose, who was safely fastened to her father's chest. Beatrice gave birth to her and Edoardo's second daughter on January 22, with the couple shielding their newborn - dressed in an adorable, baby pink onesie - from cameras. Edoardo and Beatrice's older daughter, Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi, three, however, appeared unfazed by the large gathering as she waved England's flag while enjoying a sweet treat during her most public appearance yet. In one sweet moment, Beatrice was seen leaning over to talk to Wolfie, Edoardo's eight-year-old son with his former fiancee, architect Dara Huang. Beatrice often refers to Wolfie as her 'bonus child' who is frequently seen at royal events and family gatherings, including Christmas celebrations at Sandringham and the Princess of Wales's 2024 carol concert. The family was casually dressed as Princess Beatrice went makeup-free for the victory parade after Sarina Wiegman's side thumped Spain 3-1 on penalties in the nail-biting final on Sunday, July 27. Beatrice pulled her hair back into a messy bun and dressed for cooler weather in London today as she paired a cream sweater with a blue, floral print maxi skirt from Farm Rio. Sienna was matching with her baby sister, as the toddler was dressed in a pink t-shirt - with an adorable bow clipped to her blonde hair. Prior to today's appearance, Sienna's family has only shown the back of her head in public posts and birthday announcements. However, a friend of Beatrice told Tatler earlier this year: 'Sienna is absolutely gorgeous and looks exactly like Bea. She's really cheeky and has a very good personality.' Buckingham Palace announced Princess Beatrice and Edoardo - who tied the knot in 2020 - welcomed Athena Rose on January 22. The newborn is 11th in line to the British throne, pushing her aunt Princess Eugenie down to 12th place. The family's trip to The Mall to celebrate the Lionesses victory comes after Beatrice's cousin, Prince William and his daughter Charlotte travelled to Basel, Switzerland, to watch the dramatic Euros final last week. The team roared to a 3-1 victory in a thrilling penalty shootout that saw them triumph over Spain and retain their title as the European champions following their 2022 win. Sweet images of the young princess with her father show them doing almost exactly identical expressions of shock as the tense match unfolded. The royal was also given a winners medal to keep after the presentation ceremony - which she was seen holding on to reverently. Princess Beatrice's most recent appearance comes after she and Edoardo marked their fifth wedding anniversary. The British property developer, 41, paid tribute to Beatrice as an 'incredible partner, the most beautiful and amazing wife' in a gushing Instagram post on July 17 - five years after the couple said 'I do' in a private Windsor ceremony. He shared a snap of the couple posing together on a beach in Scotland, which he accompanied with the sweet caption. It read: 'Happy 5th Anniversary to my incredible partner, the most beautiful and amazing wife. I cherish every moment we've spent together and am deeply grateful for our journey. Here's to countless more years filled with laughter and tons of love!' The Lionesses have enjoyed a heroes' welcome after they emerged victorious over the Spanish side in a dramatic finale to the Euros tournament. Thousands of fans joined in the victory celebrations as they cruised through The Mall on board a bus emblazoned with the slogan '2022 and 2025 European Champions' just after noon today. Rapid preparations had been made for the ceremony after Sarina Wiegman's team thumped Spain 3-1 on penalties following a tense and drawn-out 120 minutes of stalemate football in Basel, Switzerland on Sunday. The Lionesses turned out in t-shirts that read 'HOME', with the 'H' stylised as a pair of letter 'I's in recognition of their two European titles on the trot, and red scarves bearing the Three Lions and the word 'CHAMPIONS'. Kerry Davis - the first Black women's footballer to play for England - then brought out the Euro 2025 trophy alongside Jane Oboavwoduo, a 14-year-old forward in the England Under-17s, before the team hoisted it aloft in a flurry of red smoke to the cheers of thousands. A tearful Leah Williamson told the crowds it had been like a 'fairytale', adding: 'I've been crying all the way down the Mall. It's unbelievable. It's one of the best things we've ever been a part of.' She continued: 'There's lots of ways to win a football match and we repeatedly did it the hard way. You can see how much we care about playing for England. How much we love it.'

Princess Beatrice dotes on baby daughter on family outing to Lionesses' victory parade

Princess Beatrice and husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi were seen mingling with the crowds on the Mall during a victory parade for the Lionesses, along with daughters Sienna and Athena and Edo's son Wolfie Princess Beatrice made a surprise appearance mingling with crowds at the Lionesses' victory parade today - giving a glimpse of her new baby daughter, Athena. Beatrice and husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi appeared to be having a family day out as they joined the thousands congratulating the England Women's team after their epic Euros win. ‌ Sarina Wiegman and her players enjoyed an open-top bus ride down the Mall before stopping in front of Buckingham Palace, where captain Leah Williamson lifted the trophy in front of cheering fans. And with the celebrations taking place just a stone's throw from Beatrice and Edo's London home in St James' Palace, they made their way out onto the Mall with seven-month-old Athena, three-year-old Sienna and Edo's son Christopher Woolfe, aged eight. ‌ ‌ Beatrice, with her hair tied back, could be seen gently stroking Athena's face as the baby was carried by dad, Edo. Sienna proudly waved what appeared to be a homemade St George's Cross flag alongside older brother Wolfie. It is one of the first times that Athena has been seen in public since her arrival back in January, when she was born several weeks prematurely. Beatrice was due to give birth in early spring, but last December she received medical advice and was told by doctors not to travel long distances. In a personal essay in British Vogue, after welcoming Athena, Beatrice opened up a period of intense worry as she learned that her daughter might be born prematurely. ‌ She wrote: 'Nothing quite prepares you for the moment when you realise your baby is going to arrive early. There's so little control. Will she arrive healthy? Will there be complications? How will you juggle the rest of family life while trying to keep a tiny human safe and well?" She added: "What I learnt in this process has been humbling: understanding so much more about our remarkable human bodies, but also, more than anything, what we don't know." ‌ The outing for Beatrice and her family comes as the Lionesses were cheered by thousands of fans along The Mall after the team defended their Euros title with a penalty shootout win over Spain in the final in Basel, Switzerland. Wearing white Nike T-shirts and England scarves, the team took photos with their phones as the buses travelled down the street, led by the Band of His Majesty's Royal Marines Portsmouth and flanked on either side by cheering fans waving flags. Manager Sarina Wiegman danced alongside afrobeat star Burna Boy on stage before captain Leah Williamson lifted the trophy in the air to huge cheers. ‌ Speaking on stage at the Queen Victoria Memorial in front of the palace to host Alex Scott, a tearful Williamson said: 'I've been crying all the way down The Mall. 'This is unbelievable, probably one of the best things we've ever, ever been a part of, so thank you for coming out.' Williamson described the team as 'special, special people', adding: 'We love each other, we've got each other's backs on and off the pitch. We had tough moments, nasty things to deal with, and still we rise.'
