What happened
Laundry by Shelli Segal, owned by Perry Ellis International, announced on November 5, 2026 a three-year licensing agreement with Cloud Imports, a new division of S2 Sportswear, to produce sleepwear and loungewear. The collection is set to debut for Holiday 2026.
The deal builds on a partnership that started in 2020, when S2 began making Laundry activewear. The new line carries the brand's pastel palettes and West Coast styling into at-home apparel aimed at women, and adds to a licensed lineup that already includes dresses, eyewear, legwear, activewear and home goods. A holiday launch in a new category means the brand and its licensee will need to build retail and shopper awareness quickly.
