LVMH saw its Watches and Jewelry division reach €2.5 billion in revenue during the third quarter of 2026, representing a 6% organic growth. Conversely, the company's Fashion and Leather Goods division experienced a 5% organic decline during the same period.
Why it matters
The performance highlights a divergent trend in luxury spending where jewelry continues to show resilience even as broader segments struggle with changing consumer sentiment. Specifically, the decline in Asian markets outside of Japan has weighed on overall sales performance for major luxury houses.
Watches and Jewelry generated €2.5 billion in Q3 revenue, contributing to a nine-month total of €7.7 billion. While this division saw 8% organic growth over the first nine months, the Fashion and Leather Goods segment faced a 2% organic decline.
