Levi Strauss, Gap and American Eagle have launched some of their splashiest celebrity campaigns to date, aiming to bring choosy consumers back to their stores and websites. Levi, the company that invented jeans, reported that its Beyoncé partnership earned $65 million in media value and contributed 12% growth in its women’s business in its Q3 2025 earnings. Sydney Sweeney and girl group Katseye’s viral campaigns for American Eagle and Gap are having similarly positive impacts on sales. Watch the video to learn more.
