“My vision for Alexander McQueen was grounded in the interplay between raw, visceral, human beauty and the precision and rigor at the heart of the House,” McGirr said in a press statement. “I am incredibly proud of the progressive energy we cultivated as a team, anchoring our creativity in contemporary culture, and seeing it resonate with the most forthright, expressive figures across art, music, cinema and more. I leave with profound gratitude for the dedication of the studio and atelier, and craftspeople. I look forward to my next chapter and wish the House every success.”

The Dublin-born designer joined the Kering-owned label in 2023 as Sarah Burton’s successor. Since his debut Fall 2024 collection, McGirr has honored McQueen’s signatures, including sharp tailoring and eerie romanticism (he brought back the beloved skull scarf), while adding a punkish, youthful attitude. Unbeknownst to us all, he presented his final collection for the brand in September 2026 during Paris Fashion Week for the Spring 2027 season.

“I want to thank Seán personally for everything he has brought to Alexander McQueen,” Gianfranco D’Attis, president and CEO of Alexander McQueen, said in a press statement. “Over the past three years, he has approached the House with great respect for its history while expressing his own vision. His talent and passion have helped us reconnect Alexander McQueen with London, its culture and its extraordinary creative energy. I am deeply grateful to Seán and to the teams for their commitment, creativity and contribution to the House,”

McGirr joins a growing list designers exiting top luxury houses recently, including Leoni leaving Calvin Klein, Ib Kamara parting ways with Off-White, Julien Dossena out at Rabanne (now helmed by Olivier Rousteing), among others.

Public Clothing Co. Acquires Mansur Gavriel

Derek Lam-parent Public Clothing Co. has fully acquired the accessories brand Mansur Gavriel. The financial terms have not been revealed.  Dan Shamdasani, founder and chief executive officer of Public Clothing Co., told WWD that he was drawn to Mansur Gavriel’s strong brand identity, loyal customer following and its direct-to-consumer business strategy. Rachel Mansur and Floriana Gavriel, Mansur Gavriel’s co-founders and creative directors, are still discussing whether they will remain at the brand. {WWD/paywalled}

Why Brands Are Pulling From the Archives For Design Inspiration

Brands like Banana Republic, Express and Vera Bradley have dug into their archives for design inspiration for new collections. The approach is to cater to younger shoppers (especially Gen Z), who are drawn to “nostalgic” aesthetics and want pieces they can’t find at other mass-market brands. However, brands must also challenge themselves not to be too self-referential: They still have to create product that’s relevant and pushes the label forward. {Modern Retail/paywalled}

How Fashion Can Improve Its Auditing System

Fashion’s multi-billion-dollar auditing industry is facing immense pressure thanks to tighter legislation. However, auditors got candid with Vogue Business that the fashion industry needs to improve the auditing system: Challenges auditors face include a lack of nuance in an infamously structured framework, companies overrelying on auditing and little to no remediation efforts between brands and suppliers. As a way to address these gaps, auditors recommend initiatives like implementing community-based monitoring and brands forming direct relationships with suppliers (compared to communicating through a third party) to build mutual trust. {Vogue Business/paywalled}

Bruno Pavslovsky Steps Down From the Board of Chanel Limited

Bruno Pavslovsky has resigned from the board of Chanel Limited, effective immediately. He will continue in his role as president of fashion at Chanel and president of Chanel SAS. Pavslovsky’s resignation is the latest development in a broader strategy to revamp the company’s governance: “This latest move marks the completion of the board’s evolution towards a composition of independent directors, bringing diverse external expertise and perspectives, while retaining executive representation through the global executive chairman and global chief executive officer,” a Chanel spokesperson said in a statement. {WWD/paywalled}

Richemont and Signet Eye Buying De Beers

Luxury conglomerate Richemont and U.S. retailer Signet are reportedly in talks with Global Diamond Consortium to bid on buying De Beers, according to a group of anonymous sources with intel on the matter.

“I want to thank Veronica for her creative vision, commitment and partnership over the past two years,” said David Savman, global brand president of Calvin Klein, in a press statement. “Reintroducing Collection was a significant milestone for Calvin Klein, and Veronica’s exceptional talent and fresh perspective on Calvin’s iconic design codes helped build meaningful momentum for Collection. Collection remains an important part of our brand, we are excited by the progress to date and look forward to its continued evolution.”

Calvin Klein brought Leoni on as creative director of Calvin Klein Collection — the brand’s luxury tier — in May 2024. She oversaw the men’s and women’s ready-to-wear lines and worked to strengthen Calvin Klein’s cultural relevance through red carpet placements and online buzz. Her appointment made her the first woman to hold the esteemed role, and her debut Fall 2025 New York Fashion Week show also marked the American house’s return to the runway. Leoni presented her fourth and final collection in September 2026 for the Spring 2027 season.

Leoni now joins the ranks of Anthony Vaccarello, Ib Kamara, Julien Dossena, Mark Thomas, Nicolas Di Felice and Seán McGirr as another high-profile designer up for hire.

‘Tis (almost!) the season for toasty hot cocoa, apple cider donuts and prepping your holiday gifting game plans. It’s never too early to start browsing for that perfect present, especially when your shopping list includes at least one oh-so stylish giftee that seems to have everything. Vanilla-scented candles and lavender soap sets won’t exactly cut it, but a thoughtfully-designed handbag is always a welcome addition to any closet. Whether you’re searching for a certified fashionista (sorry, had to) or an on-the-go workaholic, there’s a Coach bag for every name on your holiday list.

The Brooklyn bag — a slouchy carryall tote — is a viral favorite for its spacious interior and minimalist silhouette. With a magnetic snap closure, the design is available in four sizes (26, 28, 34 and 39), making it a particularly fitting gift for any lifestyle. The Brooklyn 28 easily holds all of your everyday essentials, while the 39 allows wearers to schlep everything from a laptop to a grocery haul in style. Beyond its functionality, the Brooklyn also comes in fashion-forward colorways and textures, such as a delicious dark cherry hue, a chocolatey suede variant and a sleek black leather option. If the open-concept bag isn’t quite your giftee’s style, please direct your attention to the Pillow Brooklyn: It offers the same roomy storage, just with a zipper closure (and, naturally, a pillow-soft feel).

Thanks to its timeless silhouette inspired by an archival 1970s design, Coach’s Tabby is the ultimate plus-one to any holiday soirée. As one of the label’s most iconic styles, Tabby stands apart for its instantly recognizable design and its surprisingly spacious compartments. Suede fans can enjoy the textural material in a quilted espresso brown or an eye-catching magenta, while leather enthusiasts can snag a durable pebbled finish in chalky white or classic black. Regardless of whether your “Nice” list includes maximalists or minimalists, you can’t go wrong with gifting a Tabby bag this season.

If you’re searching for more compact (but equally chic) designs, meet Coach’s Teri and Nolita. Teri is a go-to style for a night out on the town, thanks to its zip-closure top, seamless organization and versatile straps. The Nolita — a shoulder bag that doubles as a wristlet — is also deceptively bite-sized. It easily stores your keys, cards, phone and multiple lip glosses. There’s a colorway for every closet, including Teri’s blush pink, deep blue or inky black. Plus, animal print connoisseurs will love both styles’ leopard-print haircalf or embossed crocodile patterns.

Ahead, we’ve rounded up the best bags for anyone on your holiday gifting list.

Step aside, “anti-aging” — “longevity” has come for the beauty industry.

In recent years, consumers have increasingly prioritized healthy aging over age prevention. In response, beauty brands are adding NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) to their formulations. The molecule is found in every cell in the body. It supplies cellular energy, which then boosts functions like DNA repair and skin barrier strengthening. 

NAD+ products have most popularly been used in the wellness space through supplements and IV drips. Because the molecule is so large, it’s easier to reap its benefits when ingested than when applied topically (say, through creams or serums).  According to research, oral NAD+ precursors may help increase NAD+ levels in the body, which plays a role in cellular energy production and repair.

Yet demand for longevity-focused products — topical skin-care formulas targeting cellular and molecular health — is rising, according to McKinsey & Company’s 2025 Future of Wellness report. As a result, more skin-care labels are formulating topical products with NAD+. For example, in February, Nakery Beauty launched a Methylene Blue- and NAD+-powered night cream; and last month, Noble Panacea unveiled the RetiNAD+ Renewal Booster, an intensive serum booster that works to visibly smooth, firm and plump skin. 

When NAD+ is incorporated into skin-care products, it activates the skin’s own repair process, which helps with DNA recovery, firmness retention and inflammation reduction. “Like collagen, NAD+ naturally declines with age,” says Dr. Natacha Bonjout, French pharmaceutical doctor, cosmetic chemist and founder of Bonjout Beauty. “As those levels decrease, skin becomes less resilient, repairs itself more slowly and visible signs of aging become more apparent.”  

So what’s the secret to getting NAD+ benefits through topical application, even though the molecule is so large that it doesn’t readily penetrate skin? Brands use precursors, or smaller building blocks that can create NAD+. The most popular of these are niacinamide (a vitamin B derivative) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), says Dr. Kseniya Kobets, board-certified dermatologist and director of Cosmetic Dermatology at Montefiore Einstein Advanced Care. These precursors can not only help increase NAD+ levels in the body, but also have considerable clinical data demonstrating benefits for skin-barrier function, hyperpigmentation, inflammation and signs of photoaging, Dr. Kobets adds. 

When shopping for NAD+ (or precursor, NAD+-promoting) products, consumers should keep in mind that it’s one of the best-tolerated ingredients on the market, according to Nakery Founder and Licensed Esthetician Liz Folce. It typically performs well on all skin types (oily, dry and combination), stages and tones. Folce adds that medical clearance to use topical NAD+ is generally only needed for people with serious skin conditions, such as eczema flares, rosacea or a compromised barrier. (But you should always check with your dermatologist if you aren’t sure.)

Product-wise, NAD+ can be used in a range of formulations, including in moisturizers, serums and peels, says Ron Robinson, a cosmetic chemist and the founder of skin-care brand BeautyStat. Experts especially recommend night treatments for applying the ingredient, since it targets skin repair and barrier strengthening. “Your skin does its heaviest repair work overnight, so that evening application is non-negotiable,” Folce explains. 

Related: Buzzy Beauty Ingredient of the Moment: Magnesium

How often to apply NAD+ products depends on a consumer’s individual routine: If a user has an active (like retinoids and vitamin C)- or exfoliant acid (such as glycolic or lactic)-heavy routine, then it’s best to apply NAD+ products once or twice a week, according to the experts we consulted. The user should alternate between NAD+ products one day and acid-backed products the other, so skin isn’t overloaded with too many active ingredients at once. Conversely, consumers with gentler, non-active or exfoliant-heavy routines can use NAD+ once or twice daily, Folce says. 

Though NAD+ isn’t a brand-new discovery, it remains less well known than other topical ingredients like vitamin C or niacinamide: Scientists first discovered NAD+ in the early 20th century through fermentation studies. Over the years, experts have expanded their research to explore how NAD+ can support age-related, long-term health. In 2015, Elysium Health was among the first companies to release commercial NAD+ supplements (focusing on ingestibles). 

To date, significantly more research exists on administering NAD+ through direct ingestive methods like supplements and IV drips than on topical use. “There is extensive scientific literature on NAD+ biology, aging, mitochondrial function and NAD+ precursors, but that should not be confused with clinical trials of intact NAD+ applied to human skin,” Dr. Kobets says. “The human topical clinical evidence for intact NAD+ itself is extremely limited.” 

That’s why she strongly recommends NAD+-supporting niacinamide. She says the precursor ingredient is inexpensive, well-tolerated, yields the same benefits as NAD+ and has more clinical research behind it. She believes that intact NAD+ products need more human clinical data to prove their effectiveness. 

Dr. Bonjout agrees that the scientific literature around NAD+ is still emerging and needs more data. She also cautions shoppers to read the product formulas carefully, as some brands will use NAD+ as a buzzword despite the formulation containing ingredients like humectants, peptides or antioxidants that can independently improve skin health and appearance. 

“This is still an evolving category,” Dr. Bonjout says. “The science is exciting, but we are still learning how to best formulate and deliver these molecules effectively into the skin.”

But the newness is also what makes NAD+ so exciting, Folce says. “The broader cellular science behind NAD+ and aging is extremely well-established…the topical delivery is just the newest frontier. And that’s actually exciting to me, because we’re getting in early on something the science is only going to continue to validate.”

Origin Story

Inūra was created by founder Jeena Dhanjal after years of navigating sensitive, reactive skin and struggling to find products that felt both gentle and effective. Inspired by the simplicity of traditional beauty rituals and elevated by modern skin-care science, Inūra was built around the belief that healthy, radiant skin should not feel complicated.

More than a skin-care brand, Inūra is a movement toward mindful skin care — powered by “clean” ingredients, intentional formulas and a ritual-focused approach to everyday skin health. Each product is created to support skin that looks calmer, more balanced and naturally luminous, without overwhelming the skin or the routine.

For Dhanjal, it was important to create skin care that feels approachable, thoughtful and inclusive — made for every skin type, including sensitive skin, and designed to help people feel more confident in their skin, so their natural beauty can shine through.

After more than a month spent traveling between New York, London, Milan and Paris, attending countless runway shows and market appointments, an esteemed group of experts took the time to share their thoughts — and picks — with Fashionista. From luxury veteran Jeffrey Kalinsky (who recently revived his namesake boutique in Atlanta) to Brigitte Chartrand from Net-a-Porter, our panel of buyers hail from global luxury retailers and influential indie boutiques alike.

Prada’s bra- and skirt-forward collection was a favorite among several buyers, as were a number of houses with new-ish creative directors: Julian Klausner’s Dries Van Noten, Demna’s Gucci and Celine’s Michael Rider, especially. Alongside the usual legacy brands, emerging and indie darlings were also among their picks — including Khaite, Fforme, Christopher Esber and Gabriela Hearst.

While it may feel like a new K-beauty brand finds a home on an American beauty retailer’s shelves every day, there’s a calculated playbook behind this global expansion. After all, brands cannot merely copy-and-paste their Korea-specific retail strategies onto the U.S. market. This is where Muskat comes in: Founder Daniella Jung and her team of 25 employees mastermind K-beauty brands’ go-to-market strategies across the nation.

As the North American operating arm of Jung’s Seoul-based distribution company Most Inc., which launched in 2019, Muskat works with brands such as Biodance, Celimax, CosRX, Purito Seoul, Torriden, VT Cosmetics and NuTexture, among others. It’s on track to reach $60 million in revenue this year.

Before helping shape America’s K-beauty landscape, Jung began her career as a demand forecaster for Apple and later joined Amazon to recruit Korean beauty brands onto its website. But back then, roughly a decade ago, many Korean brands were focused on expanding to China rather than the U.S.

“I still remember that I had to make 200 cold calls convincing [brands], ‘you have to sell on Amazon,'” Jung tells Fashionista. “Now, everybody is selling on Amazon and I work with a lot of beauty brands that are active on Amazon. But then, I saw a huge, huge opportunity [for] Korean beauty for U.S. consumers.”

Through Muskat, Jung works closely with retailers like Costco, Target and Sephora. Just as each retailer has a different core demographic, they are also searching for different qualities in the K-beauty brands they stock. Costco’s global business model is particularly unique as it doesn’t buy brands, but rather on a product basis: It purchases only a select number of best-selling SKUs rather than stocking an entire product line. (This strategy also enabled the retailer an easier access point to become an early adopter of the K-beauty category.)

At Sephora, buyers are pursuing unique brand stories, interesting ingredients and a clear founder philosophy. (“That’s not a discussion that I have with Costco buyers,” Jung says.) Take Biodance, for example: The skin-care brand is stocked at both Costco and Sephora, with the former offering 24-pack boxes of the brand’s popular hydrogel masks and the latter supplying a broader range of SKUs.

Target shoppers are also looking for a unique product at a mass-market price, especially on the heels of its recent Target Beauty Studio launch, which offers a curated assortment from more than 90 prestige emerging and global brands. This September, Muskat helped secure Purito Seoul and Aromatica’s slots in Target Beauty Studio. Purito Seoul is a skin-care brand best known for its moisturizers (see: the Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cream and the Oat in Calming Gel Cream), and its Target entrance has been a long time coming. “Purito Seoul is one of the brands that has been investing a lot of marketing into the global market rather than [the] Korean market,” Jung says.

Aromatica stands apart as the sole Korean hair-care brand in the Target Beauty Studio lineup, bringing more than 20 years of scalp expertise to the U.S. retailer. “They are actually dominating that [scalp-care] category,” she notes, adding that the brand’s Rosemary Root Enhancer and Rosemary Scalp Scaling Shampoo are becoming “cult-favorite hair-care products in Korea and [the] global market.”

Despite these retailers’ different customer bases, they’re all eyeing one common characteristic: virality. “These days, buyers really want similar things from K-beauty, which is virality, because consumers discover brands on social media and then they find [them] in a retail store,” Jung explains. Because of this, Jung is looking for growing social media conversations around the brands that she works with, noting, “it’s not something that we can create in a short period of time.” U.S. retailers want to see K-beauty brands’ Amazon rankings and TikTok metrics before carving out space on a store’s shelves, meaning that they need to establish momentum before Muskat steps in.

“When you work with Target, Ulta [or] Sephora, you are working with experts and you are actually basically launching your products for 2,000, 5,000, 6,000 doors, which doesn’t happen in Korea,” Jung says. “So this scale requires marketing capacity and operational excellence and price control.”

Choosing the right retailer for a Korean brand taking its first steps into the U.S. is a major part of Muskat’s go-to-market strategy. Launching into the largest U.S. retailer possible may not always be the most effective approach for a brand looking to hook American beauty consumers. “There is an order of the retail that you need to go when you expand your brand into the U.S.,” Jung says, adding that Muskat would not recommend initially launching into Costco or Walmart based on their promotion strategies.

Although U.S. and Korean consumers share a love for high-quality skin care, their respective beauty retail landscapes are noticeably different. Olive Young dominates Korea’s beauty market with more than 1,350 stores in the country, while the U.S. is segmented into specialty retailers (Sephora and Ulta Beauty) and big box stores (Target, Walmart, Costco). However, one of the biggest differences between the two countries is their beauty promotion strategies. In Korea, Jung notes that there are frequent discounts, including offering products at 50% off, BOGO deals or gifts with purchase. But, in the U.S., “protecting the brand equity by controlling the retail price is fairly important,” she explains.

“I always work with a brand and advise them not to run heavy promotions because every Korean brand is trained that discount[s] [are] one of the efficient tools to grow the brand, but in the U.S. you have to use it in a different and smart way,” Jung continues. In practice, this intentional discounting looks like participating in semi-annual sales (i.e. the Sephora Savings Event) or holiday-specific promotions (such as Black Friday).

As the U.S. market continues to welcome K-beauty brands with open arms, Muskat stands apart from other distributors as a company “rooted in Korea” managing day-to-day operations from its L.A. office. It aims to selectively scale the number of brands it works with, serving as a consultant on strategic U.S. expansions for Korean labels and an expert curator for retailers. But, Jung isn’t interested in transforming Muskat into a K-beauty conglomerate; Instead, she wants her company to maintain its “boutique firm mentality.”

“We don’t want to work with 100 different brands and discount them and work with all of the retailers, but we want to work as an adviser for the brand,” Jung says. “We also want to become multiple retailers’ best friend when it comes to Korean beauty curation.”

LVMH Fashion Sales Fall 5%

LVMH’s fashion and leather goods sales fell 5% year-over-year in the first nine months of 2026 to €26.4 billion ($29.6 billion). The company cited a “less buoyant” economic backdrop in China, particularly at the start of the quarter. Overall organic sales rose 1%, helped by items such as watches and jewelry. However, since the start of the year, LVMH’s market share has fallen about 40%. {LVMH; Reuters/paywalled}

Kim Jones Relaunches Namesake Brand After Dior Exit

Designer Kim Jones is reviving his namesake menswear label, which he shelved in 2008, with Design Director Lucy Beeden. The brand will launch online in mid-2027 with a direct-to-consumer model focused on genderless designs, and it plans a Hong Kong flagship as early as October 2027. Jones and Beeden retain a majority stake, with an undisclosed investor backing plans to scale quickly across Asia. The most expensive piece in the debut collection is a €1,300 ($1,456) coat, part of what Jones describes as a “considered” luxury price point. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}

Riyadh Fashion Week Postponed After Airport Attack

Riyadh Fashion Week, which was set to hold its fourth edition from Oct. 15-20, has been postponed, according to local sources. Organizers have not made an official announcement yet. The move follows attacks by Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi militants on King Khalid International Airport that killed 14 people and injured more than 300. Airport operations are suspended, some airlines have halted service to Riyadh and several countries have issued travel warnings for Saudi Arabia. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}

Judge Dismisses Sol de Janeiro Packaging Claim

A federal judge dismissed Sol de Janeiro’s trade dress infringement claim against MCoBeauty on Sept. 30, ruling the brand did not adequately show that the packaging elements it seeks to protect are nonfunctional. The court gave Sol de Janeiro until Oct. 20 to amend its complaint. Attorneys say the ruling largely favors Sol de Janeiro, since the court found it plausibly alleged consumer confusion and allowed its unfair trade practices and false advertising claims over MCoBeauty’s website search function to proceed. {Justia}

European Luxury Stocks Lose $350 Billion This Year

European luxury companies have lost about $350 billion in market value this year as hopes of a rebound faded and weakness in China persisted. LVMH’s bigger-than-expected third-quarter miss in fashion and leather goods dented sector shares Tuesday, extending a slide that has nearly halved the combined value of the big four since 2024. Only Richemont, which leans more toward watches and jewelry, has resisted the trend, while LVMH’s 40% drop this year has cut billions from CEO Bernard Arnault’s fortune. {Reuters/paywalled}

The celebration marked the brand’s final “chapter” in this collection: The Gorgon, inspired by Medusa and the power of the female gaze. In between tarot readings and a spooky candlelit ceremony, we chatted with Wilson about her style icons (she’d steal the late drag queen Divine’s wardrobe if given the chance), jewelry preferences, what it was like to wear a real snake for the campaign photos and more.

About Kinnik
Kinnik makes considered essentials for life spent out in the world.

We’re building a brand at the intersection of performance apparel, fashion and outdoor culture: clothing designed to function outside without looking like conventional outdoor gear, and that inspires people to live colorfully.

Our references include Salomon, ROA, Satisfy and And Wander, but we want to push beyond them into something distinctly Kinnik: more playful, colorful, unexpected and culturally curious.

Technical performance matters. But so does looking great.

We’re looking for a Founding Fashion Designer to help define what that looks like.

The Role
You’ll work directly with the founder to design Kinnik’s initial apparel collections from concept through final design.

This is a creative fashion design role, not a technical product-development role. You will own the full creative side of the garment, from silhouette and color to visual language and collection cohesion.

A separate Product Developer / Technical Designer will translate your designs into technical specifications, patterns, construction and production-ready garments. You’ll work closely with them throughout development to make sure the final product preserves the original design intent.

You’ll also collaborate with our China-based sourcing partner on fabrics, trims and material development.

What You’ll Do

• Design Kinnik’s summer collection. You’ll own each garment end to end, from first concept through sketches, flats, colorways and final design.
• Create Kinnik’s design language. You’ll define the silhouettes, proportions, colors, materials and details that make Kinnik recognizable. The goal is for someone to recognize a Kinnik garment before they see the logo.
• Shape how technical and fashion elements work together. Hardware, pockets, layering and functional details should be design features with personality, not afterthoughts.
• Protect the vision through development. You’ll review samples and fittings with the Product Developer so the finished garment still feels like what we set out to make.

Our References

• Salomon: technical credibility + contemporary culture
• ROA: fashion + mountain utility
• Satisfy: performance + attitude
• and wander: technical function + fashion + color

We’re interested in the space between outdoor equipment and contemporary fashion. You should understand performance apparel enough to design intelligently within that world, while bringing a distinctly fashion-oriented point of view.

Who We’re Looking For

We are open to years of experience for the right fit. You might be:

• A recent graduate with an exceptional portfolio and unusually strong taste
• A fashion designer from a performance or outdoor brand
• A sportswear designer with a strong fashion point of view
• A fashion designer who has moved into technical apparel
• A designer working independently across fashion and performance

We’re open to different backgrounds. Portfolio > pedigree. We care much more about whether you have a distinctive point of view than whether you’ve worked at a famous brand.

You Should Have

Must have:

• Strong fashion design portfolio
• Strong understanding of color and material
• Ability to develop original garment concepts
• Understanding of contemporary fashion and sportswear
• Ability to collaborate with technical/product-development teams
• Strong interest in outdoor culture and performance apparel
• Experience working with performance textiles

Especially valuable:

• Experience at a performance, outdoor or sportswear brand
• Technical apparel experience
• Outdoor / hiking / trail running / climbing / cycling experience
• Strong knowledge of contemporary fashion
• Technical design knowledge 
• Experience working with Asian manufacturers

You don’t need to be an expert in all of these. We’re primarily looking for taste, originality and a strong design point of view.

Engagement

• Project fee: Starting at $6000 for the capsule (4 styles, 2 colourways each). Fee is flexible depending on experience & fit.
• Includes:
  • Moodboard & Design Language – 2 concept directions
  • Capsule design (4 styles – 3 apparel, 1 accessory, 2 colorways each) 
  • Collaboration with technical product developer to get design ready for production
  • 2 sample review
• Timeline: ASAP – with all deliverables completed at end of November. Sample review will be in December/January.
• Opportunity to convert full time.

If you are interested:
Please email careers@wearkinnik.com with:

Please include:

• Portfolio showing garment design (finished if possible), and technical/performance work if applicable.
• Short introduction & CV
• Availability
• Project rate

LVMH and Kering Refresh Their Model Protection Guidelines

Kering and LVMH partnered in 2017 to sign a first joint charter on models’ working conditions, and now, the fashion conglomerates are strengthening their commitments. In the updated guidelines, the minimum age for models to represent adults in fashion shows or photoshoots is now 18 (an evolution of the minimum age set at 16 for LVMH in 2017). It also sets a “strict principle of zero tolerance for any form of harassment, abuse or violence, particularly gender-based or sexual.” {LVMH}

What Is the New ‘Ball Hog’ TikTok Aesthetic?

On TikTok, a new aesthetic called “ball hog” is on the rise. As Samuel Hine writes for The Cut, a ball hog is “essentially the deep-fried zoomer equivalent of the millennial hypebeast aesthetic.” These outfits may seem casual on the surface, but they feature high-end designer pieces like Hedi Slimane–era Saint Laurent sweatshirts and Nicolas Ghesquière–era Balenciaga sneakers. {The Cut/paywalled}

Zankov Names First CEO

Zankov has appointed Jack Tobin, founder of Jack Tobin Agency, as its first CEO and business partner. Zankov began its partnership with Jack Tobin Agency two years ago, and has since increased its international business more than tenfold and doubled its global stockist network. “I have always envisioned having a partner who could join me in shaping the next chapter of the brand — someone who shares my ambition to build an enduring business while staying true to the creative vision that has always defined Zankov,” Henry Zankov told WWD. “Jack is the ideal partner to take this next step with, and I’m excited about what we can build together.” {WWD/paywalled; Instagram}

Origin Story

After years of building beautiful sensory experiences as co-founder of Vilhelm Parfumerie, Polly Silverman became fascinated by a daily skin-care contradiction: We know sun protection is essential, yet most SPF products still feel like a chore. At the same time, modern life has transformed how we experience environmental stressors, with hours spent in front of screens exposing skin to blue light alongside traditional UV exposure.

Zouck was created to bridge the gap between protection and pleasure. Designed around the belief that sun care is skin care, the brand combines mineral UV protection with high-performance skin-care actives to help defend against photo-aging while delivering the textures, finishes and rituals people actually want to use every day. The debut collection — including a cast-free mineral SPF, antioxidant-rich facial oil and restorative night moisturizer — works together to support skin around the clock.

Launched in June 2026, Zouck reimagines protection as a daily act of self-care: effective, effortless and indulgent enough to become a ritual rather than a responsibility.

“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Anthony for his contribution to Saint Laurent over the past 10 years,” Luca de Meo, CEO of Kering, said in a press statement. “Through his creative vision and exacting standards, he has contributed to strengthening the enduring influence of one of France’s greatest couture Houses, as we embark on a new chapter in its history.”

Vaccarello was appointed creative director in 2016, following Hedi Slimane’s four-year run. From the very start, Vaccarello leaned into the House’s sensual codes, balanced by sharp tailoring. The designer also generated brand buzz beyond the runway: He cultivated a strong celebrity following, including Zoe Kravitz, Blackpink’s Rosé, Connor Storrie, Hailey Bieber and Charli XCX. Vaccarello also oversaw the launch of Saint Laurent Productions, the first full-fledged film production company operated by a luxury fashion brand.

“I would like to warmly thank Anthony for his 10 years of dedication to the House,” Cedric Charbit, president and CEO of Saint Laurent, said. “During his tenure, Anthony took Saint Laurent on a remarkable trajectory, elevating the House to the forefront of desirability and image, while accomplishing exceptional work both creatively and through his cultural impact.”

Rumors of Vaccarello’s exit had been circling for months. It felt almost confirmed at what became his last Spring 2027 runway show with the label, presented during Paris Fashion Week: It was an opulent affair with a dramatic backdrop, cryptic show notes hinting at his exit and a collection that pays homage to founder Yves Saint Laurent.

Vaccarello’s departure leaves him as the latest high-profile designer up for hire. Others on this list include Ib Kamara, Julien Dossena, Mark Thomas and Nicolas Di Felice.

Copenhagen kicked off the season by sending billowing mullet hems, icy blue color palettes, voluminous parachute pants and thick elastic headbands down the catwalk. The Danish designers have a reputation for setting the sartorial tone of the season, as evidenced by high-low hems and balloon pants soon appearing across fashion capitals both on and off the runway. In New York, designers embraced primary colors, 2000s-era skinny scarves, oversized culottes and bra-baring button-ups. In fact, visible bras were perhaps Spring 2027’s MVP: The lingerie top made an appearance across cities at Prada, Sandy Liang and Mowalola, among many others.

Across the pond, London designers appeared to reject AI design in favor of human craftsmanship via unfinished hems (Ashley Williams), multimedia materials (Chopova Lowena) and three-dimensional embellishment (Erdem). High-fashion kitchen aprons, choker necklaces and minimalist boleros also made their mark on the British runways. Over in Milan, springtime plaid, feathered trims and exaggerated hips dominated the Italian designers’ collections. Plus, we spotted ballet pinks at Blumarine and Jil Sander as well as split-front tops at Etro and Roberto Cavalli. As Spring 2027’s nine-day grand finale, the Paris shows welcomed intentionally crinkled fabrications, stylish windbreakers and various olive green hues.

Ahead, see all of our Spring 2027 trend roundups from every fashion capital.

It’s a lot of clothes — it may be easier to identify the trends that didn’t show up on the French runways this Spring 2027 season. Instead, we picked out 10 that felt so fresh, or were so ubiquitous, that we felt they couldn’t be ignored: texture play via 3-D embellishments, netting and crinkled fabrics, cool takes on classic button-downs and rain jackets, revealing designs that put your abs on full display and more. Browse them all in the galleries below.

Petal Pushers

When it comes time to design for spring, designers must decide whether they'll eschew florals altogether or attempt to deliver them in a way that feels fresh. In Paris, many designers sought to push florals forward — literally — with 3-D appliqués and embellishments, and even one strategically placed pastie that practically jump off the runway.

Bubbling This Back Up

Good luck finding a seat on the subway wide enough for your voluminous bubble garments next spring. Designers had a lot of fun with the resurgent silhouette, resulting in puffed-out tunics at Acne, tiered pastel dresses at Chloé, billowing tulle gowns at Matières Fécales and more.

A Crinkle in Time

Big news for those of us who never feel like steaming our clothes: Intentionally wrinkly materials are all over Spring 2027 collections. Stella McCartney, Marie Adam-Leenaerdt, Alainpaul and others utilized fabrics like organza, georgette, taffeta and nylon that that tend to be stiff and crinkle easily; while others like Miu Miu, Maison Margiela and Hodakova seemed to manipulate fabric via wax and plastic coatings.

On the Flipside

What comes after Funnel-Neck-Jacket Fall? Popped Collar Spring. Alongside blazers and jackets, classic shirting was a big focus for designers this season, and many were styled with their collars flipped up — a trend anyone can achieve immediately. But most intriguing were the folded-over jacket lapels at Chanel, Lanvin, Louis Vuitton and Christopher Esber.

Icy Blue

While there were plenty of vibrant, fruity hues on the Parisian runways, we were most drawn to looks in this muted, icy shade of greyish-blue — seen everywhere from Carven to Cecilie Bahnsen to Tom Ford to Victoria Beckham.

Jump Around

A natural side effect of the sporty trend and budding resurgence of leggings and skinny pants, jumpsuits had a major moment this week. While Anrealage, Chloé and Junya Watanabe endorsed skin-tight versions; others like Tom Ford and Isabel Marant made cases for looser, more utilitarian styles.

Nothing but Net

Designers are always coming up with ways to make clothing that fails to conceal what's underneath it. For Spring 2027, Parisian designers expanded the fishnet concept far beyond tights — to pencil skirts, dresses, tops and more that veil skin and undergarments in a loosely woven texture.

Olive Juice

Olive green is set to do a lot of heavy lifting in our wardrobes next spring. The earthy color's sartorial versatility was on full display, skewing more utilitarian at Acne, Sacai and Jean Paul Gaultier, but totally glam at Alaïa, Schiaparelli and Mugler.

Rain on Me

With natural disasters on an upswing across the globe, it's no surprise that designers incorporated stylish weather-protective clothing into their spring collections. Chloé's transparent and shiny-coated raincoats were unforgettable. Practical-chic windbreakers and rain jackets also punctuated Alainpaul, Hermés, Lacoste and more.

Full Frontal

With visible bras dominating the first few Spring 2027 fashion weeks, Paris designers had to take things a step further by removing bras — and shirts — from the equation entirely. The chest and abdominal regions became a focal point for designers, revealed via wide-open jackets, strategic tummy cut-outs, bandeau "tops" and various other creative torso-baring configurations.

Levi Strauss & Co. Reports Sluggish DTC Sales in Q3

Levi Strauss & Co. reported the slowest growth in its direct-to-consumer (DTC) channels since late 2022, in part due to its back-to-school advertising that focused on baggy jeans rather than low-rise.

Some may look forward to sweater weather or Lenny-Kravitz-comically-oversized scarf season all year long, but for us, the arrival of fall means it’s officially time to bust out our favorite autumn footwear: boots. Whether you’re more drawn to ankle booties or OTK TKOs (that’s over-the-knee total knockouts), chunky or sleek, neutral-toned or colorful, your boot-forward look isn’t complete without the perfect handbag pairing.

That’s where Coach‘s bag lineup comes in: The brand’s many on-trend accessories are on standby to complete any fall ensemble and serve as the ideal counterpart to your favorite seasonal shoes. When it comes to styling boots, team Fashionista has been particularly drawn to the Nolita and Teri bags. Both styles come in a range of materials, colors and sizes — and can be customized via cute Coach add-ons like bag charms and small leather goods — so there’s truly something for every personal style and every fall dressing mood.

For those who like to go maximalist and bold, try the Soft Teri Shoulder Bag in Poppy Red or Blush Pink suede or Signature Beaded Satin. To go even more playful, incorporate the aforementioned bag accessories for a cheeky expression of personal style. (Standouts include the Cherry Bag Charm, Chili Pepper Bag Charm, Short Chunky Curb Chain Strap, Short Jewelry Chain Strap and Dice Bag Charm.) We love these Teri styles paired with Coach’s Margot Boots, a perfect pointed-toe mid-calf silhouette with a 2.25-inch heel and a trendy buckle detail. Available in both black and made-for-fall dark cherry red colorways, the Margot pairs seamlessly with everything from jeans to mini dresses.

If you’re more of a minimalist or looking to add some polish to a professional workweek ensemble, look no further than the Nolita 19 in classic Black or Dark Cherry leather, along with the Coach Tall Boot, a classic knee-high heeled style.

Dr. Michelle Henry, a board-certified dermatologist based in Manhattan who practices at Skin & Aesthetic Surgery of Manhattan and also teaches at Weill Cornell Medical School, is one of the city’s most respected skin experts for many reasons. One of them is that she’s open about telling patients the things they might truly need to hear. For example, “Just because it works for your TikTok bestie does not mean it works for you,” she told Fashionista in a recent interview.

At an event celebrating the launch of Bath & Body Works’ new Essentials line, which caters specifically to sensitive skin (and for which Dr. Henry serves as a spokesperson), Fashionista caught up with the MD about all her skin-care hot takes. She shared the universal beauty truth everyone should come to terms with, divulged the cheapest part of her beauty routine (it’s actually free!) and the items in her practice she uses “liberally” to keep her own skin in shape. Plus, she set the record straight about fragrance in skin care — and the many common misconceptions surrounding it.

Watch the video below for all of Dr. Henry’s hottest beauty takes:

Origin Story

Rooted in a distinctive balance of structure and fluidity, Veronika Vilim’s work begins as a swimwear collection viewed through a ready-to-wear lens — where form, tension and intention shape each piece.

As a New York City native, Vilim’s creative foundation began in ballet. She developed an early fascination not just with movement, but with costumes. That focus on form and function would later define her design perspective. She also found fashion to be a natural outlet from a young age. Before having access to proper tools, she began constructing garments for her dolls using tape. This hands-on, intuitive approach continues to inform her work today.

The Copenhagen fashion crowd kicked things off with a modernized take on tradwife dressing — think headscarves, bloomers and prairie dresses. New Yorkers went full-on casual mode, sporting jorts, ribbed tank tops and low-profile sneakers. Over in Europe, the Brits channeled their inner students through preppy classics; the Milanese fashion crowd wore their best elevated workwear; and Parisians endorsed the balloon pants trend.

Telfar ‘Shows’ Spring 2027 Collection in Paris

Telfar Clemens staged his Spring 2027 show in Brooklyn on Oct. 6, even though it was on the official Paris Fashion Week schedule, leaving a Paris audience of about 300 to watch the runway on a giant screen in Théâtre Daunou. The show also doubled as a sample sale at One Hanson Place, where fans lined up from midnight and could trade in old bags for credit toward new purchases. {Fashionista inbox}

Anta Sports Secures $1.7 Billion Investment in Puma

Anta Sports Products Limited has completed its purchase of a 29.06% stake in Puma SE from the Pinault family’s investment company Artémis for €1.5 billion ($1.7 billion) in cash. Anta Sports is now the German sportswear maker’s largest shareholder. Anta Sports said it has no plans for a takeover offer and will seek representation on Puma’s supervisory board. “We look forward to building a fruitful partnership and exploring areas where our respective strengths can create sustainable value,” Puma CEO Arthur Hoeld said in a statement. {Anta; Puma}

ASOS Shares Fall 14% After App Notification Claims Hack

On Tuesday, an unidentified third party may have accessed basic customer information on ASOS’ app, such as names and contact details, after shoppers received a notification claiming hackers had “fully compromised” its data. The retailer said it does not believe payment card records or passwords were affected, and its website and app are “operating as normal.” However, shares fell as much as 14% before closing down by 9.56% after the company said it has cybersecurity insurance. {The Guardian}

Lacoste Fires CEO Before Paris Show

Lacoste has reportedly dismissed CEO Eric Vallat shortly before its latest Paris fashion show. Vallat joined in June 2025 to lead a push to move the brand upmarket. Thierry Guibert, who ran the company for a decade before Vallat, will resume the role. According to Reuters, a spokesperson confirmed the departure but did not explain the reasoning, saying only that the brand would continue its strategy on “robust fundamentals.” {Reuters/paywalled}

Origin Story

Arachne was founded by Sophia Wojczak, granddaughter of Leandro P. Rizzuto, the entrepreneur behind Conair. Drawing on a lifetime spent immersed in the beauty industry, Wojczak launched Arachne with a clear vision: to create thoughtfully designed hair-care and styling essentials that combine performance, craftsmanship and ease of use.

Named after the mythological weaver known for her artistry and skill, Arachne reflects a belief that beauty is personal and that the products we use every day should support, not complicate, our routines. The brand focuses on creating modern tools and formulas that help consumers achieve healthy, beautiful hair with confidence.

Rooted in generations of beauty expertise but designed for today’s consumer, Arachne brings a fresh perspective to hair care, blending innovation with a genuine understanding of how people care for and style their hair in real life.

Matières Fécales started the week strong with a collection paying homage to the 99% (continuing a theme that began last season with a show about the world’s wealthiest 1%). Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel remained an industry favorite with a stunning collection exploring the trajectory of Coco Chanel’s life. Miu Miu’s subversive take on everyday dressing and Loewe’s merge of American sportswear with Spanish Baroque were also particularly memorable.

In the last six years, Brown has expanded the brand into solid range of easy-to-use, multi-purpose products, some of which have gone TikTok-viral (including What the Foundation and Miracle Balm). Jones Road Beauty also bet big on brick-and-mortar; there are 18 store locations, with 20 total expected by the end of 2026.

We caught up with Brown at her newest location in Santa Monica, CA, where she was hosting a community masterclass with her latest launches, Wide Awake Brightening Concealer and Neutralizer. Below, she discusses her aversion to trends, advice for beauty founders and thoughts on Sephora tweens.

What are Jones Road Beauty’s top products right now?

The first five or six are complexion products. I’m not surprised. It’s What the Foundation, Miracle Balm, our Face Pencils, Just Enough Tinted Moisturizer and our Foundation Stick.

What’s special about Wide Awake Brightening Concealer?

It really does cover but it feels like you have nothing on. It has an eight-hour wear claim, it doesn’t crease and it really covers dark circles. And if you don’t know what a neutralizer is, it’s a color — pink or peach — that gets rid of darkness because some people have purple, some have green, some have brown, some even have white under their eyes. You neutralize it first and then you lighten it up with a concealer and you look wide awake.

With the beauty landscape changing so quickly, how do you keep a brand relevant?

My philosophy is: do what is right, do what you believe in and don’t chase trends. I know there was a trend that mascara is out. Mascara’s not out.

What’s different about building a brand now vs in the 1990s?

There’s so much different about building a brand the second time around, especially in 2026. First of all, social media is your friend. It is a great way to know what’s happening. It’s a great way to tell people what’s happening and it doesn’t cost a lot of money. You just talk into the camera and you tell people the truth.

What’s your advice to new founders?

You already founded a company; just calm down. Just breathe. And just really know that it takes time to learn the business, to learn what works, to learn what doesn’t; and if things don’t work for a second, don’t panic. Take a break and really think about what you could have done better and what you can do now.

You’re also an author of teen beauty books. What do you think about teen beauty today?

Every decade, things change. I’ve written two books for teenage girls and it’s amazing when you go into one of the stores, especially Sephora and Ulta, and you see these 10- and 11-year-old kids with their dads on a weekend, which is really adorable, coming to look for the next retinol cream. I didn’t know what a retinol cream was. I still don’t know what a retinol cream is! I think there are good things and bad things about everything and as long as you’re focused on the right things — taking care of yourself, being nice to people — that’s the advice you give to teens.

What’s your beauty industry hot take?

There are so many brands out there. Do your homework. Know what you like. And by the way, don’t [let] anyone force you to buy anything you don’t want to.

Fall is the perfect time to reset your beauty routine. As the weather cools down, many of us trade lightweight summer products for richer skin care, rethink our hair routines as static takes the place of humidity and start thinking a bit more about cozy self-care. It’s also a good excuse to take stock of the beauty and grooming tools we use every day, and maybe finally replace the ones that have been sitting on the bathroom counter for a bit too long.

Fortunately, Laifen just rolled out its major discounts for Amazon Prime Day. The personal-care brand is known for its lineup of high-performance tools designed to make our everyday routines a lot more efficient, such as high-speed hair dryers, electric shavers and toothbrushes that even your dentist will approve of. And on Oct. 6 and 7, many of those items are up to 30% off. (Plus, there are a few more surprise deals — keep reading.)

The sale spans several categories (hair, grooming and oral care), making it great for anyone looking to give their fall routine a refresh or start holiday shopping for friends and family early. But it’s only for 48 hours, so don’t wait.

Marc Jacobs’ Post-LVMH Plan

Marc Jacobs’ namesake label is beginning a new chapter under WHP Global and G-III Apparel Group, which acquired it from LVMH this year. G-III CEO Morris Goldfarb has pledged to preserve the runway shows and the Spring Street headquarters, while setting a goal of lifting the handbag-heavy business to $1 billion in sales. Though, some full-price stores could be shuttered. Jacobs, who has about two years left on his contract, hopes the partnership will be built on mutual respect and will revive a lower-priced ready-to-wear line. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}

Why Bootleg Merch Is Thriving

Unlicensed Harry Styles and Knicks apparel is selling on New York streets, where vendors outside Madison Square Garden and other venues charge far less than official merchandise, which can cost $50 to $85 a piece. High licensing costs and bland official designs have opened a door for knockoffs to fill the gap. Fans often buy both, picking up an official souvenir at a pop-up or concert and a cheaper, more creative bootleg on the way out. {Vogue Business/paywalled}

L’Oréal Hires Restructuring Advisers Over Talc-Related Claims

L’Oréal’s U.S. unit has hired restructuring advisers Weil Gotshal & Manges and Ducera Partners to explore ways to handle mounting U.S. legal liabilities tied to talc and other chemical ingredients used in some of its products. One option under review would move the tort liabilities into a separate entity and sell it to an outside investor. This would allow L’Oréal to transfer responsibility for the claims to a new owner. {Wall Street Journal/paywalled)

Norway Moves to Restrict Smart Glasses in Public

Norway’s government plans to introduce a temporary ban on camera-equipped smart glasses in public venues such as parks, beaches, museums, schools and gyms, though private use would still be allowed. The minority Labour government needs support from other parties to pass the bill, and it has also tasked an expert group with drafting permanent rules. “I am worried that new, powerful technology is being introduced where people risk being photographed, filmed or audio-recorded without knowing it,” Digitalization and Public Governance Minister Torgeir Micaelsen said in a statement. {Reuters/paywalled}

Swedish Stockings Eyes U.S. Growth

Swedish Stockings is stepping up its U.S. push with its first American pop-up in New York, running from Oct. 7 through Oct. 18. At its pop-up, it will pre-launch two new versions of its $65 Roxana Tiger Tights, co-designed with Leandra Medine Cohen. The privately owned company says its U.S. direct-to-consumer revenue rose 37% from January through September, and it plans more designer collaborations early next year. {Glossy/paywalled}

Other PFW attendees chose balloon pants rendered in rich velvet, structured wool, stretchy jersey and dressy satin. When it comes to styling, the right footwear is key to balance out the balloon pants’ bottom-heavy appearance: The Paris street-style crowd wore them with heeled thong sandals, Tabi flats, pointed-toe boots, soccer shoes and slim brogues.

While preparing to graduate with a degree in pre-med biology, Cassey Ho taught Pilates on the side and started a YouTube channel for her students called Blogilates in 2009. After unintentionally tapping into an online audience beyond her real-life students (Blogilates now boasts more than 11 million YouTube subscribers), Ho began designing her own activewear pieces to wear in her videos, and officially launched her label Popflex in 2016. A decade later, Popflex is one of the leading activewear brands in the space, known for viral designs like its Cloud Hoodie and Pirouette Skort.

In 2023, Shein took notice and duped Popflex’s Pirouette Skort, a sheer tiered skirt concealing inner shorts. In response, Ho successfully patented her design. Just over a year later, Taylor Swift wore the Popflex skort in her “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart” music video; it sold out “in a matter of minutes,” according to Ho. With the patent, Ho was now able to protect the design against fast-fashion dupes that often arise when a product goes viral.

“If I don’t fight to protect my design, people are just going to walk all over me,” Ho said during our conversation. “So it’s a lot of emotional energy to deal with this, but at the same time, by fighting for my design, I also speak up for other independent designers who may not have the platform to speak about these things that happen all the time, unfortunately.”

On The Fashionista Network, Ho also discussed solving for common activewear woes in her designs, testing Popflex’s sizing guide on real consumers, launching Blogilates for Target in 2025, repurposing fast-fashion dupes of her designs and more. Watch the full interview on YouTube below.

“We didn’t do a lot of research about the best city to do the first store in,” Djerf tells Fashionista of the new flagship. “It’s always about the gut feeling, and New York is such a special place for us.”

The 29-year-old Swedish influencer, who launched Djerf Avenue with her fiancé Rasmus Johansson in 2019, cites community events such as the brand’s Guggenheim fashion show as an inflection point for her company, which did $36 million in sales in 2024.

Although a workplace harassment scandal threatened to throttle Djerf’s momentum, she managed to soften the blow by addressing the allegations — including claims of “bullying” and a “degrading” work environment — head-on. Acknowledging her shortcomings in a public apology, as well as a series of interviews, Djerf chalked it up to being a young, inexperienced first-time founder. Plus, Djerf Avenue’s rapid pace of growth made it challenging to scale.

With the appointment of seasoned retail consultant Nanna Hedlund as interim chief executive officer in 2025, the company promptly expanded its human resources department and created a work environment task force, allowing employees to submit anonymous surveys as feedback. Hedlund stepped down as interim CEO in February 2026 and now sits on Djerf Avenue’s board.

Djerf bounced back with a successful Selfridges pop-up in London a year after the exposé. Within hours of opening, Djerf Avenue purchases made up 70% of the floor’s sales, outpacing even Kim Kardashian’s Skims.

Perhaps it’s a testament to the quality of Djerf’s products, which are produced in Europe (Portugal, Italy and Sweden, to be exact) and available in sizes XXS to 3XL at a mid-range price point. She successfully expanded the brand beyond clothing and accessories, introducing homeware and beauty products that bolster Djerf Avenue’s mission to serve as a “big sister” to its customers.

This thread also runs through the new NYC boutique, which Djerf said is staffed with employees familiar with the sizing, fit and fabrication of each item.

“As a consumer myself — I’ve shopped in so many stores — the level of expertise [among sales associates] can look very different,” Djerf explains. “Sometimes you walk into a store and you don’t really feel welcome. That’s something we absolutely do not want, and it’s something we learned very quickly with our pop-ups. I wanted to bring Scandinavia to New York but I don’t want it to feel so cold and minimalistic that you’re scared to sit on the couch.”

The layout of the store, rendered with help from LEAP Architecture, was primarily designed by Djerf herself and takes inspiration from her island summer home in Sweden. (Think warm woods, lots of natural light and high ceilings.) The shop is also decked out in the brand’s best-selling hand-painted prints in the form of decorative drapery and upholstery.

The boutique is stocked with pieces Djerf Avenue fans know and love, such as its best-selling line of Go Slow pajamas and ready-to-wear staples like the Weekend Blazer. Shoppers will also be treated to a selection of in-store exclusives, including playing cards, reusable water bottles and yellow cab keychains.

Teaming up with local vendors was an integral part of Djerf Avenue’s pop-up strategy, a tradition that the new store is upholding. For opening weekend, Leon’s Bagels and Bluestone Lane returned to serve up strawberry bagels and matcha (a nod to the brand’s popular Summer Berries collection). Such collaborations are expected to be a consistent feature of the flagship.

With brick-and-mortar retail and in-person brand experiences on the upswing, now felt like the perfect time to start building out Djerf Avenue’s physical footprint. What’s more, the label’s typical customer purchases a higher quantity of items in-person as opposed to when shopping virtually.

“You get so much information from the customer that is incredibly important for growing the business and evolving as a business owner,” Djerf said of operating a standalone boutique. “When people try things on, you can stand in the store and immediately hear their first reaction. That’s something you can’t get when they purchase online.”

The Djerf Avenue flagship is now open at 25 Bond St. in New York City, Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Nike Cuts Jobs Under New ‘Pace’ Restructuring Plan

On Thursday, Nike announced a restructuring plan called “Pace” that will cut jobs next year and consolidate its four geographic regions into three, after quarterly sales fell 4% to $11.2 billion. The company expects the plan to save $2.5 billion by fiscal 2031 at an implementation cost of $1 billion, including $300 million in severance. Sales in Greater China dropped 22% — the fifth straight quarterly decline in the region. Nike expects full-year revenue to fall by a high-single-digit percentage. {Nike; Business of Fashion/paywalled}

Sycamore Close to Selling Boots for $9 Billion

Sycamore Partners, the private equity firm that took control of Boots by acquiring its parent company Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. in 2025, is nearing a deal to sell the chain to the Canadian Weston family. The sale would hand over more than 1,800 U.K. stores just weeks after new CEO Alex Baldock started and would end speculation about a London IPO. Boots reported revenue of £7.5 billion ($9.9 billion) in its latest year’s accounts, up 3.2%. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}

ChatGPT Adds Virtual Try-On to Its Features

OpenAI updated ChatGPT Images to version 2.5, adding a virtual try-on feature and a way for shoppers to save items they like in a personal library. Users can upload a selfie and tap “try on” in shopping results, or upload a photo of a style they want to see on themselves. {WWD/paywalled}

How the Target Boycott Impacted Black Beauty Founders

In January, consumers began boycotting Target over its rollback of diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Since then, the retailer has not restored the programs. Sales and traffic have rebounded from the initial slump, but Black-owned brands that rely on Target shelf space may have taken the hardest hit, according to several beauty founders and executives. The debate has been sharpened by the launch of Target Beauty Studio, where only two of 90 brands are Black-owned or Black-founded. {Beauty Independent/paywalled}

Business of Fashion Unveils the BoF 500 Class of 2026

The Business of Fashion unveiled The BoF 500 Class of 2026, adding 100 people to its index of figures shaping the global fashion industry and bringing the total to 1,713 members. Among the new class are designers Dario Vitale and Foday Dumbuya, executives Luca De Meo of Kering and Hillary Super of Victoria’s Secret as well as athletes and entertainers Eileen Gu, Naomi Osaka and Teyana Taylor. All of these new entrants will be honored at a gala at the Shangri-La Paris on Saturday. {Fashionista inbox}

What’s the opposite of gatekeeping? Welcome to “Payment Processing,” in which we ask stylish, generally cool people who’ve tried it all about their favorite fashion and beauty buys.

When someone tells me they aren’t familiar with Mckenna Grace, I tell them they probably are, no matter what generation they’re from. The 20-year-old has been a working actor for 14 years. She’s perhaps best known for playing young Tonya Harding in “I, Tonya,” her Emmy-nominated stint in “The Handmaid’s Tale” and her roles in two “Ghostbusters” movies. In 2025, she starred alongside her real-life boyfriend, Mason Thames, in “Regretting You,” a film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel, on which she also served as an executive producer.

And she’s not slowing down. Grace has a handful of buzzy films slated through early 2027 (notably, for this interview: “Scooby-Doo: Origins”), as well as new music; plus, she’s currently the face of Crocs’ cozy fall/winter campaign.

We caught up with Grace on a Crocs set in Los Angeles to chat about her favorite luxury lip oils, drugstore makeup finds and her dreams of having Adéla-pink hair.

What’s a luxury beauty item you’re into right now? Why?

I like the little Dior lip oils, especially because they’ve come out with a lot of purple stuff lately. I’m very much in my purple vibes lately. That’s my era. So I like the Dior purple blushes and their lip oils.

What’s a drugstore/mass market beauty item you love?

Any sort of eyeliner. I especially like getting a nude or a white that I can put on my waterline. I heard somewhere that it makes your eyes pop. But also, I saw it on TikTok actually, I love the L’Oréal Paris Telescopic Mascara.

What’s an accessory you’re eyeing right now?

I’m trying to get more in my sunglasses game… I’ve been looking for any sort of purple sunglasses or things like that, but I’ve loved Miu Miu’s sunglasses lately. I think that they’re really pretty.

What shoes do you want to buy right now?

I walked in and I saw [the Crocs Chalet Clogs] today. They’re so cute with the little ribbons. I feel like it’d be really cute to wear these and get a ribbon that looks like that and put it in my hair.

What’s a fall fashion must-have you swear by?

I love cozy socks. I love knitted knee-high. Right now I’m wearing the sheer one that goes with my Crocs. I love a little grandpa sweater moment. Any sort of cozy thing: a scarf, a sweater, knee-highs.

Have you been influenced by a celeb or influencer recently?

Between Adéla, and there’s this influencer that I really like, I think her name is Miranda Ray. She always has really colorful hair and she’ll pop up on my For You Page every once in a while. It’s making me want to have pink hair, but I don’t think my job would like that. It’s not a product or anything, but I feel like I really want pink or colorful hair.

Of all the characters you’ve played, which one’s wardrobe did you love the most?

I definitely loved [Scooby-Doo’s] Daphne Blake’s wardrobe, and I feel like that’s pretty self-explanatory. Everything in my life is slowly becoming purple. I definitely maybe stole a few items. I did steal a lot of my wardrobe from “Regretting You” because it was really cute, easy, everyday items. And coincidentally, that was Erinn [Knight], who was our costume designer on “Regretting You,” [and] was our costume designer on “Scooby.” So that makes sense as to why I loved both of those characters’ wardrobes.

Founded in 2018 by Milena Bernocco and her son Nicolas Garatti, the Italian high jewelry house specializes in green diamonds. You’ve likely heard of their yellow or blue counterparts (see: the Tiffany Diamond or the Hope Diamond), but what, you may ask, are green diamonds? The rare gemstone’s greenish hue comes from natural exposure to radiation over millennia, resulting in various levels of saturation and clarity. (No, they’re not radioactive; I asked.)

In fact, any colored diamonds are exceedingly rare, as only one out of 10,000 carats of fashioned diamonds displays “fancy color,” according to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), a nonprofit organization and the global authority on diamonds, colored stones and pearls. But green diamonds rank among the rarest of the rare, second only to red diamonds. Now, Garatti is further positioning itself as the premier destination for the green-tinted gems: It currently owns 60% of the world’s known green diamonds as well as more than 90% of those currently available on the market, per the maison.

For Bernocco, a career gemologist, two factors fueled her decision to go all-in on green diamonds. “The first is the sheer beauty of their color: a magnetic green born from a long, natural process of formation,” she told Fashionista over email, translated from Italian. “The second is our desire to bring these gems the recognition they deserve for their rarity and allure, as they represent the second rarest diamond color in the world.”

Inside its Milan atelier, Garatti artisans combine traditional Italian craftsmanship with contemporary design to create custom pieces. Bernocco spearheads the design process for each of the label’s capsules, including its Settecento collection (a multi-strand necklace referencing 1700s high jewelry) and its Venezia collection (statement earrings and a necklace inspired by Venetian chandeliers). Unlike many of the industry’s front-facing high jewelry players — Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels and Tiffany & Co., for example — Garatti firmly commits to its custom, made-to-order business model.

“What sets our brand apart from competitors is the sheer uniqueness of our creations,” Bernocco shared. “We craft exclusively one-of-a-kind pieces, tailored ad hoc for each client, alongside museum-grade collections featured on the world’s most prestigious red carpets.”

As one of its most notable celebrity placements, Garatti’s green diamonds (more than 41 carats of them, worth a whopping $35 million, to be exact), graced the neck of Kate Hudson at the 98th Academy Awards in 2026. Other A-listers like Angelina Jolie, Emma Stone, Gwyneth Paltrow, Penélope Cruz and Lupita Nyong’o have also donned the Italian house’s rare jewels.

Regardless of a prospective client’s means, the atelier’s concealed entryway ensures that not just anyone can waltz in and purchase a multimillion-dollar diamond necklace. Instead, Garatti operates on an invitation-only basis. “The selection of our clientele extends beyond financial standing — even though our creations represent true luxury — and is rooted primarily in moral and ethical values that align with our brand identity,” Bernocco explained. “Our ideal client is a person of refined culture, a passionate patron of the arts and actively engaged in social and humanitarian causes.”

This emphasis on ethical values and transparency continues into Garatti’s diamond sourcing, as the jewelry house uses the Kimberley Process (KP), which is an international initiative established in 2000 to eradicate conflict diamonds from the legitimate trade. According to KP, conflict diamonds are “rough diamonds used by rebel movements or their allies to finance conflict aimed at undermining legitimate governments.” Plus, each Garatti diamond is guaranteed and certified by the GIA. (Translation: No “blood diamonds” here, per the company.)

Despite many high jewelry brands targeting female consumers with glittering necklaces and dangling earrings, the wider gemology industry is largely run by men. While scaling the ranks in her gemology career, Bernocco eventually hit a wall. So, after deciding to go out on her own, she brought in her eldest son Nicolas (along with her younger son Luca) to help open more doors.

“It was by no means an easy journey, but my passion and determination to open up this world to true connoisseurs are what [have] driven me to build our brand,” she said. “From a young age, my son Nicolas — now president of Garatti — supported me in its founding, standing by my side to navigate the challenges and obstacles of this industry.” Though in Bernocco’s opinion, “this kind of art is even more beautiful and better with a feminine vision.”

In an age when lab-grown diamonds are becoming increasingly popular on the jewelry market, Garatti highlights its green diamonds’ exclusivity, permanence and exceptional rarity as its key differentiation points. As the high jewelry maison looks to the future, Garatti is focusing on preserving its time-honored craftsmanship for a new generation. (In fact, one of its in-house artisans is a 19-year-old woman, sitting alongside male colleagues with decades of experience.) 

“As a brand, we are dedicated to educating and inspiring anyone who encounters our world, ensuring that the passion and love for this fine art endure through time,” Bernocco said.

A prominent retail partnership is no longer a finish line; rather, it’s a starting point, a high-stakes test of whether a brand can finance inventory, absorb tighter margins, satisfy compliance requirements, fund marketing and keep customers coming back once launch-day excitement fades.

Retailers want more than a strong product. They also expect differentiation, an engaged community, reliable fulfillment and a plan for sustained sell-through. Brands, meanwhile, must determine whether the exposure is worth the cash, control and capacity the partnership demands.

What “Retail-Ready” Means Now

“Retail-ready isn’t just having a great product anymore. It’s having a business that’s ready to be put under a microscope,” says Kate Souied, head of marketing at FlutterHabit, which recently entered Sephora. “Retail doesn’t fix your business; it puts it on full display.”

That scrutiny begins before the first purchase order.

Jessica Phillips, vice president of merchandising at Ulta Beauty, says the retailer looks for brands with differentiated innovation, compelling storytelling and an operational foundation capable of translating an existing consumer connection into retail. “Being retail-ready today means much more than having a great product,” she says. “The strongest brands have begun building an engaged community and have the operational foundation and long-term vision to translate that connection into retail.”

Credo Beauty Co-Founder and CEO Annie Jackson starts with an even more basic requirement: a strategy. “‘I’ll take a PO [purchase order] from anyone’ is not a strategy,” she says. A brand should understand which retail partners serve its positioning and can add growth without taking business away from the channels it has already built, Jackson explains. Credo launches only 12 to 15 brands a year, and a clear point of difference is the most persuasive sign of readiness.

At Ulta, success is measured through sales as well as whether a brand attracts new shoppers, encourages repeat engagement and remains relevant across the retailer’s omnichannel ecosystem. For Credo, the calculation is more direct.

Beyond sales, Jackson says, success is rarely measured by anything other than productivity per unit of shelf space. “We can’t afford to run a store like it’s a museum,” she says, pointing to the fixed costs and thin margins associated with physical retail.

The Cost of Getting on the Shelf

For founders, the celebratory retail partnership launch announcement can obscure the less glamorous question underneath it: Can the business afford to succeed at said retailer?

Veronica Pedersen, founder of Timeless Skin Care, asked precisely that before expanding into more than 1,500 Target stores. The company estimated how much product it would need, secured raw materials and packaging components and assessed its production capacity for both the initial order and rapid replenishment if the products took off. Its in-house manufacturing gives the brand direct control over quality and production, but the rollout still required systems for purchase-order processing, electronic data interchange and vendor compliance.

“One of the biggest misconceptions is that a purchase order is the same thing as profitability. It is not,” Pedersen tells Fashionista.

Before saying yes to national distribution, founders must determine whether they can finance inventory, support marketing, absorb payment terms and meet increased demand without weakening the rest of the company. Timeless forecasts 12 to 24 months out across direct-to-consumer, Amazon, national retail and international distribution.

Liz Folce, founder and CEO of Nakery Beauty, has observed the same shift over more than 30 years in the beauty industry. Retailers can quickly see what is selling, converting and driving repeat purchases, leaving brands with less time to find their footing.

“You’re not handing a retailer your product and expecting them to build the business for you,” she says. “You need to come with inventory, marketing support, content, sampling, education and a plan to drive the customer to that retailer.”

Those needs create a long list of expenses. Inventory is financed ahead of payment. Packaging may need to change. Then come displays, testers, samples, freight, retailer programs, advertising, education, customer support, potential deductions and additional staffing. If an item sells faster than expected, the company needs more product and working capital immediately. If it moves slowly, cash remains trapped in inventory.

Souied puts the first requirement more plainly: “Cash,” she jokes. “Seriously though, retail is expensive before you ever make a dollar back.”

Building the Retail Engine

That transformation became clear for hair- and scalp-care brand Nutrire while preparing to launch at Ulta through the retailer’s Sparked program. General Manager Kristen Chase says the company was not originally built for wholesale, so preparing for national retail required it to rework its forecasting, inventory planning and fulfillment while developing a trade-marketing capability.

“[P]reparing for Ulta meant rewiring a big part of our operation,” Chase says. “Selling direct to a guest and supplying a national retailer are two different disciplines.”

Nutrire invested in clinical testing, packaging, creator relationships and consumer education while keeping its internal team lean. It also brought all nine products in its scalp-to-strand system to Ulta rather than fragmenting the assortment.

By the end of the process, Chase says, the team understood that retail readiness was less about preparing for a single launch and more about building an engine capable of performing week after week.

Every Retailer Has Its Own Playbook

Every channel and each retailer demands a different version of retail readiness. While there is of course plenty of overlap, what works for one may not necessarily be true for another.

Folce says Nakery approaches Ulta, Amazon and HSN as separate environments: Ulta depends on physical and digital discovery, packaging, positioning and education. Amazon rewards search visibility, reviews, advertising and conversion. HSN relies more heavily on storytelling and product demonstration.

Timeless, menawhile, takes a similar approach across its retail partners Target, Amazon, Nordstrom and Macy’s. Not every product belongs in every channel, Pedersen says, and more distribution does not automatically equal better distribution.

Ryan Siegel, co-founder of beauty-hydration brand H2Glow, prioritizes audience alignment, data transparency, pricing protection and commercial terms over a retailer’s size.

“A smaller partner with the right audience always outperforms a massive retailer where your core customer isn’t looking,” he says.

The question is not simply whether a retailer will accept a brand, but whether the partnership will strengthen the business. Jackson advises brands to ask retailers for explicit sales expectations and a clear definition of what could lead to discontinuation. Waiting until performance slips to discuss a turnaround may be too late.

Access to the merchant matters, too. Jackson notes that one merchant may oversee 20 or more brands, so founders should determine whether they will be able to discuss the business at least monthly. Brands should also understand the cost of samples, gratis, co-op marketing and field coverage.

What Retailers Bring to the Partnership

Retailers say they are trying to help emerging brands close some of these gaps. Phillips points to Ulta’s MUSE Accelerator, which has supported more than 32 emerging brands with more than $1.5 million in funding and over 150 hours of coaching since 2022. Ulta can also connect partners with third-party logistics providers and offer customized merchandising, digital storytelling, education and in-store experiences.

“Supporting emerging brands goes far beyond providing shelf space,” Phillips says. “We think about how we can support founders at different stages of their journey and help build businesses positioned for long-term success.”

Chase says Ulta’s support of Nutrire exceeded her expectations, while Phlur Chief Marketing Officer Erica Dunivan credits Sephora with helping the fragrance brand expand from the U.S. and Canada into the Middle East, Mexico and Europe. “Sephora is a true brand growth partner,” she says. “They have a deep understanding of Phlur and our point of difference.”

Those examples show what a productive partnership can unlock: scale, credibility, new markets and consumer discovery that would be difficult for an emerging brand to build alone.

Sell-Through Is the Real Finish Line

The danger arrives when scale becomes the strategy. A crowded shelf can pressure brands to adapt their assortments, packaging or messaging in ways that make them easier to merchandise, but harder to distinguish.

The sources Fashionista consulted for his story draw their boundaries in different places. Siegel considers pack configurations and promotional timing flexible, but calls H2Glow’s pricing integrity and narrative “sacred.” Folce will change Nakery’s assortment by retailer, but not its focus on women over 50. Dunivan says Phlur adjusts campaigns for local markets while keeping its fragrance storytelling consistent.

Even with the right partner, placement does not create demand on its own. Phillips says the biggest misconception founders hold is that getting onto the shelf is the finish line. “In many ways, that’s when the work really begins,” she says.

Souied is sharper: “Shelf space is an opportunity, not a marketing strategy.”

That reframing changes the metric that matters. Door count may make an impressive press release, but velocity reveals whether the business is working.

“Getting in is not the win, but selling through is,” Siegel says. “Watch how fast the product moves per store, not how many stores you are in.”

Major retail can still be transformative. But the new definition of readiness asks brands to prove much of what retail once promised to create: consumer awareness, community, operational maturity and a reason to believe the business will last.

The shelf is not a trophy. It is a weekly performance review, and the brands most likely to survive it are the ones willing to ask not only “Can we get in?” but “Should we, and can we afford what happens next?”

How Emerging Designers Approach Celebrity Placements

While celebrity placements earn emerging designers notoriety early on in their careers, it can also be difficult for rising brand founders to stay on top of the fast-paced celebrity style news cycle. Emerging designers need to carefully select which stars reflect their established brand aesthetic.
