In a significant move to bolster its portfolio of owned labels, Macy’s, the iconic US department store, has unveiled a new private brand for women named ‘On 34th’. The launch is part of Macy’s ongoing effort to reimagine its customer-centric private brands portfolio, which represented around 16% of brand sales in FY22.
The brand ‘On 34th’ is a nod to the location of Macy’s historic NYC flagship store and is designed to cater to the modern woman’s lifestyle.

The ‘On 34th’ collection features over 750 SKUs and over 250 unique styles, designed to be easily mixed and matched to create over 1,000 outfits. Prices range from $18.50 to $299.50 and sizing ranges from XXS to 4X and 0 to 26W. Macy’s has always been known for its commitment to sustainability.
