Q1 FY22 saw Mytheresa cement its position as one of the world's leading digital platforms for luxury fashion.” 

Kliger continued: "The shift of consumer demand to online in luxury has clearly accelerated in recent months. We strongly believe this trend will continue in the post-pandemic world, probably reverting to the strong market growth rates we had seen before the pandemic. We will continue to deliver a superior customer experience and deepen our partnerships with the most coveted global brands. Given our strong financial momentum, excellent customer developments, and superior execution, we feel extremely confident to continue achieving strong results for full fiscal year 2022.”
