Revolve Group appoints Melanie Cox to its Board of Directors

– USA, CA –  Revolve Group, Inc. (NYSE: RVLV) today announced the appointment of retail industry veteran Melanie Cox to its board of directors, as well as the audit and compensation committees, effective immediately.

“Melanie is a proven leader with deep apparel industry experience,” said co-founder and co-CEO Michael Mente. “Her experience successfully guiding public and private companies in our industry is a great complement to our already strong board. I am excited to tap into Melanie’s breadth of industry knowledge and confident that her contributions to our board will be invaluable in shaping REVOLVE’s future strategies for growth and unlocking shareholder value.”

Cox is replacing Jennifer Baxter Moser on the board. Moser, a managing director at TSG Consumer and a REVOLVE director since 2012, submitted her resignation from the board on July 28, 2020.

“On behalf of the board and leadership team, I want to thank Jenny for her dedicated service and outstanding contributions to our success during the past eight years,” said co-founder and co-CEO Mike Karanikolas. “Her considerable talents and deep insights into the REVOLVE core customer demographic have played a critical role in the development of our margin-accretive portfolio of owned brands, our industry-leading marketing strategy and the launch of REVOLVE Beauty, which has become our fastest-growing product category in recent months.”

“I feel honored to have been part of the REVOLVE journey over the past eight years,” said Jennifer Baxter Moser. “I have been a passionate REVOLVE fan from the very beginning, and I am so proud to see what Mike, Michael and the team have created. What began as a bootstrapped startup has emerged as an industry leader and a brand that is shaping the future of fashion. They have been innovators in every aspect of the business. I know they will continue to do great things and I am excited to watch their continued success.”
