Gilly Hicks is a women's activewear brand under the ownership of Abercrombie & Fitch, focusing on apparel for an active lifestyle.

The brand debuted its initial retail outlet at the Natick Mall in Natick, Massachusetts on January 21, 2008. In a strategic move announced on November 6, 2013, Abercrombie & Fitch decided to shutter all physical Gilly Hicks stores while maintaining the brand's presence through online sales. Responding to growing consumer interest from younger demographics, Gilly Hicks was relaunched in 2017. Since that revival, its merchandise has been available both in every Hollister retail location and via e-commerce platforms. By 2019, Gilly Hicks had become a prominent product line within Hollister’s online and brick-and-mortar outlets.

In July 2019, Abercrombie & Fitch inaugurated four temporary Gilly Hicks pop-up shops. These were established at BrandBox inside Tysons Corner Center (Tysons, VA), Dolphin Mall (Miami, FL), Los Cerritos Center (Cerritos, CA), and Baybrook Mall (Friendswood, TX). These additions complemented two preexisting Gilly Hicks stores located at Ala Moana Center (Honolulu, HI) and Roosevelt Field Mall (East Garden City, NY).

October 2019 saw the launch of a co-located Gilly Hicks store adjacent to Hollister Co. within the Aventura Mall (Aventura, FL).

July 2021 marked the opening of a new side-by-side Gilly Hicks boutique at Westfield London. This store showcases the brand’s expanded product range, an innovative retail layout, and incorporates multiple digital engagement features.

In February 2022, Abercrombie & Fitch confirmed plans for a new Gilly Hicks standalone store on Carnaby Street, London. This location has since ceased operations; however, Gilly Hicks products continue to be available inside the Hollister stores situated on Regent Street and Fouberts Place near Carnaby Street.
