Owner of fashion brands Hobbs and Whistles joins autumn pwned collection
The Foschini Group's UK fashion brands, Hobbs, Phase Eight, and Whistles, suffered a cyberattack discovered on October 11, 2026, that took several IT systems offline and disrupted customer orders and website functions. The company activated incident response procedures, engaged external cybersecurity specialists, and notified UK authorities; payment processing is handled by a third party and has not been compromised, but investigation into other customer data exposure is ongoing. The incident follows recent cyberattacks on ASOS and alleged targeting of H&M, marking a surge in incidents affecting major fashion retailers.
Why it matters: Retail executives and security teams managing payment processing, customer databases, and supply chain systems should assess whether their third-party dependencies create similar exposure and review incident response readiness, particularly given the clustering of successful attacks on major fashion brands.
