The company said, license agreement includes DKNY Sport for men, a new category for the brand. In addition, PVH has licensed rights for men's sportswear, dress shirts, neckwear and jeans.

Commenting on the development, Morris Goldfarb, Chairman and CEO of G-III, said in a media statement, "This collaboration is an important step in the continued growth of DKNY and a clear example of the go-forward strategy to heighten this iconic brand. PVH is a trusted and powerful partner and we look forward to our continued success together."
