Fendi Announces a New Collab + More Fashion News
Plus, Michael Kors celebrates ten years of Watch Hunger Stop.
Fendi teases its forthcoming collection with Stefano Pilati
Fashion is not known for being an overly friendly industry. But Kim Jones and Silvia Venturini Fendi are ready to change that with Friends of Fendi, “a diverse series of projects and collections crossing the party lines of the fashion industry and distinguished by a belief in sincerity over strategy, with a true notion of friendship at their heart.”
First up is Fendi x Stefano Pilati of the Italian streetwear label Random Identities. In the collection, he explores what a 1920s flapper would look like today. While the new assortment won’t be released until November, expect an emphasis on tailoring with Gatsby-esque sex appeal.
Rabanne H&M is coming this November
Get those calendars ready because Rabanne H&M is coming fast, and the lines will be furious. On November 9, the Scandinavian conglomerate will team up with the Parisian luxury brand on an affordable designer collaboration that includes womenswear, menswear, accessories and home decor.
As Paco Rabanne was known for his space-age designs in the ’60s, we suspect silver, sparkle and shine will somehow be involved.
Reformation teams up with Veja
We didn’t need another reason to love Reformation, but it gave us one anyway. This month, the sustainable clothing brand is collaborating with Veja on a pair of sneakers made with bio-based materials. (Think recycled cotton, sugar cane and Amazonian rubber.)
Available in cream and brown colourways, these chunky runners are perfect for getting your 10,000 steps in and looking good while you’re doing it.
Michael Kors celebrates ten years of Watch Hunger Stop
Nearly a decade ago, Michael Kors launched Watch Hunger Stop, its first global philanthropic initiative where the brand works with the United Nations World Food Programme to provide school meals to children in food-insecure regions. Since then, the program has provided more than 30 million school meals worldwide.
To celebrate, Michael Kors enlisted the help of Kate Hudson and Halle Berry to star in its newest Watch Hunger campaign. For each special-edition watch, T-shirt and tote purchased, the designer will donate up-to 200 meals to the program.
Lambert launches a travel capsule
It might seem a little early to think about holiday gifts, but in case you are, may we suggest luggage from Lambert’s new travel capsule for the frequent flyer on your list? The Aspen suitcase and Mae carry-on scream (or rather whisper) quiet luxury and are big enough to fit even Shiv Roy’s wardrobe.
Bonus: the case comes with packing cubes to keep you more organized while you fight for your father’s empire.
Paris Jewellers introduces a bespoke collection
After designing engagement rings for celebs like Derek Hough and Lana Condor, Canada’s Paris Jewellers has introduced the Bespoke Collection, a series of one-of-a-kind rings “designed to embody your story.” And while the sold gold band might be more on the traditional side, the gemstones and settings certainly aren’t. Think rainbow moonstones, smoky quartz and blue topaz in unconventional shapes and sizes.
