In the past five of the six seasons, almost half of the merchandise produced was left unsold. The $40 million USD made in 2022 sees more than a 50% decline from the $93 million USD made the year prior. For 2023, IVY PARK is projecting sales of $65 million USD, a much lower target than the previous $335 million USD. The music mogul’s contract with the sportswear giant is set to expire after 2023.
