Estée Lauder Posts Strong Q4 Sales

Estée Lauder projected fiscal 2027 adjusted earnings per share of $3.10 to $3.35, topping analysts’ average estimate. The company credited strong spending by younger shoppers on trending brands like Le Labo and Balmain Beauty. “For fiscal 2027, we are affirming our confidence to accelerate organic sales growth. In addition, we are raising our outlook for an even stronger adjusted operating margin, as we double down on our strengths to further diversify growth across product categories and geographies, including accelerating growth in North America,” Stéphane de La Faverie, president and CEO, said in a statement. {Estée Lauder}

Target Shows Signs of Recovery in Q2

Target reported its second straight quarter of gains, with net sales up 5.3% and net earnings rising to $1.8 billion, or $4.11 per share. CEO Michael Fiddelke noted strength across most categories, though he said apparel and home sales remained “barely positive.” The company raised its full-year sales growth forecast to around 5%, with earnings per share now projected between $9.90 and $10.90. {Target}

Outerwear Brands Embrace Warm Weather

Canada Goose, Moncler and other winter-focused outerwear brands are expanding into warm-weather lines, with campaigns like Canada Goose’s “We do summer, too” signaling the shift. Executives cite a slowing luxury market and hotter climates as key drivers, with Canada Goose noting non-outerwear sales have grown from 5% to nearly 40% of revenue in five years. Rather than simply lightening winter designs, brands apply the same technical construction — waterproofing and breathability — to summer-ready pieces. {Vogue Business/paywalled}

TJX Lifts Outlook Amid Shift to Discounts

TJX raised its full-year profit guidance despite a slowdown at its Marmaxx division, home to T.J. Maxx and Marshalls, where same-store sales rose just 1%, down from 3% a year earlier. CEO Ernie Herrman points to growth at HomeGoods and the company’s international operations for offsetting the decline. Second-quarter sales climbed to $15.18 billion, exceeding estimates, with net income rising to $1.52 billion, or $1.36 per share. {TJX}

Do you have an emerging brand you want to share with Fashionista readers? Jumpstart your business with our affordable digital offerings.

We all know the beauty shopping drill: You fall in love with a viral foundation or a holy-grail serum on your feed. You click over to buy it, but your exact undertone is sold out. Suddenly, you have 14 browser tabs open across department stores, boutique stockists and direct-to-consumer sites, frantically trying to figure out who actually has your match in stock — and who’s running a promo code.

It’s exhausting, but the era of chaotic, multi-tab beauty hunting is officially over.
REVERSIBLE, the platform known for simplifying how style insiders shop luxury fashion, has officially stepped into the beauty world. Launched recently, REVERSIBLE’s new beauty destination brings a seamless, hyper-curated experience to prestige skin care, makeup, hair care and fragrance.

Here is why this new launch is about to become your favorite beauty shortcut.

Every Shade, Every Size, Every Retailer — In One Place

If you’ve ever tried searching for a specific lipstick or foundation on a standard shopping engine, you know how messy it gets: endless duplicate listings for every individual color, leaving you to guess which link actually has what you need.

REVERSIBLE approaches beauty shopping like an insider editorial index. Instead of forcing you to hunt through scattered listings, the site thoughtfully groups an entire product family — every shade, finish, and bottle size — into one unified product page.

Want to track down a rare, sold-out shade of your favorite contour stick or the travel size of a niche eau de parfum? Simply select your preference, and REVERSIBLE instantly reveals every premier retailer carrying that exact item. You can compare real-time pricing, stock availability and special offers across the world’s best beauty destinations without ever leaving the page.

Pinterest Meets Sephora: Visual Beauty Moodboards

Shopping is only half the fun — inspiration is the rest. REVERSIBLE moves beyond simple product listings by introducing an interactive Moodboard feature designed for visual storytelling.

It allows you to curate, style and publish your own aesthetic routines. Whether you want to build a “French Girl Summer Skin” lineup, showcase your “Holy-Grail Everything Shower” products or map out a seasonal lip palette, you can create a beautiful, shoppable canvas to share with the community.

Turn Your Top-Shelf Taste Into a Side Hustle

For the Fashionista crowd, the best news might be the expansion of REVERSIBLE’s Creator Program.

Whether you’re a professional makeup artist, a licensed esthetician or just the group-chat friend everyone asks for perfume recommendations, you can now monetize your beauty expertise. By curating moodboards and sharing your authentic voice, creators earn commissions on sales generated through their content across REVERSIBLE’s expansive luxury retail network.

With new prestige brands and global stockists added weekly, the destination is rapidly becoming the ultimate home for beauty discovery.

Ready to simplify your shelfie? Head over to the new Beauty section on REVERSIBLE to compare your favorite products, find your sold-out shade,or start building your very first shoppable moodboard today.

Origin Story

Virginskin was born from the pioneering work of renowned New York City-based dermatologist, Dr. Albert Lefkovits. Created in the 1990s in Provence, France, its original moisturizer was designed to heal and restore skin after invasive treatments.

What started as a skin healing solution following laser treatments to nourish and plum their skin quickly became a coveted formula for Dr. Lefkovits’ patients. Even after his passing, the demand for this transformative cream only grew, inspiring the next chapter of Virginskin Beauty. The brand was reformulated in 2023. Today, it blends cutting-edge dermatological research with globally sourced, sustainably harvested botanicals. Cruelty-free and clinically validated, its skin care embodies the harmony of nature and science.

Maisonette was co-founded in 2017 by Sylvana Ward Durrett and Luisana Mendoza de Roccia, who met while working at Vogue. (Mendoza de Roccia is no longer with the company.) After becoming mothers themselves and finding shopping for children uninspiring, they launched an e-commerce platform stocking a curated collection of kids’ and baby clothing, furniture, decor and more. But these kids are getting older, and the need for tween options became more evident. Enter: the new Neon Rebels platform.

“Many of our core consumers who first shopped at Maisonette for their babies are now raising older kids, and we want to evolve alongside them and support every stage of parenthood,” AJ Nicholas, president of Maisonette, told Fashionista via email.

The data supports it: “Today, over 20% of Maisonette’s active customer base has at least one child aged 7 or older and tween/teen brands [on the site] have grown +30% over the past three years,” she continues. “Launching a dedicated destination for this age group was the natural response to this significant built-in demand.”

The hope is that Neon Rebels becomes a “co-shopping” experience for parents and tweens with items they can both agree on, Nicholas explains. “Most retailers often force families to choose between products that feel either too young or too grown up, which naturally causes friction between parents and kids… [Tweens] are digitally native, form distinct visual tastes earlier, and know exactly what they want,” she says. “However, because they aren’t fully shopping on their own yet, there’s a real need for alignment between kids and parents, which is where Neon Rebels comes in.”

They sure do know what they want. According to PwC’s 2026 Gen Alpha survey, 97% of 7- to 14-year-olds say they have at least some influence over clothing and accessories purchases, with 55% saying they have “a lot” of influence. Nicholas says they “see a massive opportunity to capture value in a largely underserved market,” and recent data puts the global kids apparel market at $226 billion in 2025 and growing to reach $343 billion by 2031.

Neon Rebels features more than 100 global brands, including LoveShackFancy, DL1961 and State on the fashion side, and Yes Day and Erly for beauty. They’re “age-appropriate and premium while genuinely reflecting the trends and interests of older kids,” Durrett tells Fashionista via email.

“Thinking beyond just apparel, we’ve built out every dimension of a tween’s daily routine, from what they pack for school and how they decorate their rooms to every step of their personal care routines,” she adds.

Neon Rebels is for the generation of parents who shopped via Delia’s catalog, so the team brought some of that nostalgia into the platform with wishlists and images of real teens. “There was a real magic in flipping through pages and discovering products that spoke to you,” Durrett says. “We wanted to bring back that same sense of tangible inspiration for Gen Alpha, while channeling the memories of millennial parents’ own tween years.”

Maybe this is a less complicated way to think about what Gen Alpha wants. Like all the generations before them, they’re figuring out what they like in real time. With their parents in the (proverbial) room, Neon Rebels hopes to give them somewhere to do it.

“We were obviously upset and disappointed,” Co-Founder Lela Becker tells Fashionista of the fire. “But because of the level of devastation, we were just like, ‘We’re one little dot amongst everything.’ So, we just sort of left it behind us and moved on because there’s nothing you can do.”

There was never a plan to be in Beverly Hills, Becker says, but it ended up working out perfectly with the same concept and build of the original store. The 3,850-square-foot space is part California living room, part social clubhouse and part “cabinet of curiosities,” per the brand. (More on that later.) It was designed by L.A.-based firm Mahte (with Fernanda Tarr overseeing the architecture) and features a rich color palette with warm terracottas, deep reds and soft dusty pinks, which helps the shopping experience feel immersive as you walk through. Sculptural curved architecture was inspired by vintage design.

“[We] created what we feel at the office and even through the visuals of our website, and [brought] that to the customer,” Becker says of the store they call “The Motherland.” Although the brand might be best known for its denim, Becker wants customers to get the full Mother experience and see how far it has expanded — into ready-to-wear, bags, accessories, knits, sweats and more — while still keeping more than 90% of manufacturing in L.A.

But one of her favorite parts of the new store actually has little to do with these product categories: It’s the rotating installation she calls “Cabinet of Curiosities,” featuring “objects, artifacts, ephemera and personal inspirations drawn from Mother’s evolving collection themes and creative references,” per the brand. The collection also includes pens and pencils, playing cards that resemble a pack of cigarettes, “Mother Beverly Hills” emblazoned flasks and lighters and more. Many items are exclusive to the Beverly Hills store, which also offers merch like sweats and tees.

Another standout area is the conversation pit designed to be a communal gathering space. It’s adjacent to the Mother Café, which offers coffee, tea and matcha, inspired by European rest stops. “The cafe was super important to us just as a gathering point,” Becker says. “Make yourself at home and be part of the Mother world. Read a magazine. Hang out.” Try on clothes in the boudoir-inspired fitting rooms.

While this store is Mother’s flagship, a Pacific Palisades location will happen next year in the just-reopened Palisades Village. The actual space is different and the design will be different, too. “Our idea for now is to do, [for] whatever neighborhood we’re in, what feels good for that area, but make it Mother,” Becker says. A New York City store is also in the works for 2027. “We want each one to feel curated and unique and special.”

Marc Jacobs Covers Vanity Fair

Marc Jacobs covers Vanity Fair‘s latest style issue, discussing the pending sale of his namesake label from LVMH to a joint venture between WHP Global and G-III Apparel Group in an accompanying interview. (The deal is valued at roughly $850 million and expected to close by October.) Jacobs said he remains uncertain about his brand’s future direction and acknowledged frustration with how LVMH managed the business over nearly three decades, while also praising chairman Bernard Arnault. New co-owners Yehuda Shmidman and Morris Goldfarb said they intend to keep Jacobs involved creatively and continue his runway shows. {Vanity Fair/paywalled}

CFDA Launches Third Empowered Vision Award

The Andréa W. and Kenneth C. Frazier Family Foundation and CFDA have launched the third edition of the Empowered Vision Award, a program supporting emerging Black designers with a $100,000 grant, mentorship and business development resources. Applications open Sept. 1, with a well-rounded selection committee of nine that includes fashion critic Robin Givhan, designer Willy Chavarria and musician Travis Scott. Since launching in 2024, the award has gone to Diotima and Proenza Schouler’s Rachel Scott as its inaugural recipient, followed by designer Daveed Baptiste in 2025. {Fashionista Inbox}

Frasers Group Expands Hugo Boss Holding

Frasers Group, controlled by billionaire Mike Ashley, has raised its stake in Hugo Boss to 48% after 17.6% of shareholders accepted a €38-per-share ($43-per-share) offer, even though the German fashion house’s board had rejected the bid as inadequate in June. The move follows Frasers’ recent £40 million ($54 million) acquisition of Harvey Nichols out of administration and adds to Ashley’s growing luxury portfolio, which already includes Flannels and a significant stake in Mulberry. {Hugo Boss}

Dior’s Mathilde Favier Dies at 57

Dior confirmed the death of longtime public relations executive Mathilde Favier, 57, who died Monday in a car accident alongside her partner, French film producer Nicolas Altmayer. Favier most recently served as international PR director for Dior women, managing VIP relations with celebrities including Rihanna and Jennifer Lawrence. “Dior is losing an incredible professional, and I have lost a loyal friend. Her optimism and courage commanded admiration. We will sorely miss her smile and her talent. I feel deeply saddened today; my thoughts are very much with her children, her mother, her sisters, her family, her many friends and her team she loved so much,” said Chairman and CEO of Christian Dior Couture Delphine Arnault. {WWD/paywalled}

Amer Sports Tops Q2 Estimates

Shares of Amer Sports gained momentum early Tuesday after the company reported second-quarter revenue growth of more than 30% and lifted its full-year 2026 outlook for the second time this year. Net income for the quarter climbed to $107.2 million from $18.2 million a year earlier, helped by a $50.1 million tariff refund benefit, though revenue of $1.63 billion fell short of Wall Street’s $2.07 billion estimate. Growth was led by Arc’teryx, which drove a 32% rise in technical apparel to $674 million, alongside gains in Salomon outdoor products and Wilson tennis gear. {Amer Sports}

Origin Story

Established in Korea in 1984 by Young Tae Choi, Nadri’s origin began with a spark of inspiration on a school trip to a history museum. Captivated by the jewelry designs he saw there, Choi eventually left his career as an ocean-going vessel engineer to pursue his destiny, returning home at his father’s request to build his own company.

Combining his engineering expertise with international trading skills and guidance from a supportive mentor, Choi founded Nadri. Today, it stands as a trusted market leader with over 35 years of heritage. By owning its factory, Nadri controls every step of production — from design concept to delivery. This vertical integration allows the brand to perfect innovative techniques and maintain unmatched quality across all collections. Its diverse product range spans from accessible plated brass and sterling silver with cubic zirconia to luxurious 14-karat gold with genuine diamonds. Whether crafting fashion pieces or fine jewelry, Nadri applies the same rigorous quality standards to ensure unparalleled excellence in every piece.

“Ibiza is so much more than the parties people associate it with,” Annie Doble, founder and creative director of Annie’s Ibiza, tells Fashionista over email. As someone who has regularly visited the island since she was a teenager and has come to love it like a second home, Doble emphasizes that the true allure of Ibiza lies in its history, creativity and people.

“Ibiza is unlike anywhere else in the world,” she explains. “It has this incredible ability to bring people together; you meet people from all walks of life, and somehow everyone connects.”

She opened the first Annie’s Ibiza boutique in Ibiza’s Old Town, and she regularly draws inspiration from the island while designing. “There is a freedom here to be completely yourself, whether that’s through music, fashion, nature or simply spending time with friends,” she shares. “It has such magical energy.”

Given her expertise, we asked the designer for an insider-approved itinerary of must-visit shops, restaurants and more. Read on for all her hidden gems, from her favorite flea market to the breakfast spot she swears by.

What’s one food/dish everybody who goes to Ibiza should try?

This one is a little tricky for me, as I’ve been vegetarian my whole life. But one thing everyone should try is the ice cream at Es Moli — it’s really famous in Ibiza and such a lovely treat, especially after a day in the sun. 

Where is your favorite place in Ibiza to get breakfast?

I love a slow morning at my home in Dalt Vila, but if I’m going out, my favorite place for breakfast is The Croissant Show. It’s such a special little spot and the perfect place to sit outside, enjoy the island’s atmosphere and take in the peaceful Ibiza mornings before the day begins. There’s something so lovely about having a drink, enjoying a beautiful view and watching the island slowly come to life.

What’s your favorite place in Ibiza to get lunch?

La Paloma is one of my favorite places for lunch, especially at the beginning of the summer. It has such a beautiful setting surrounded by nature; the food is incredible, and it always feels so authentic to Ibiza. It’s the kind of place where you can relax, take your time and really enjoy the magic of the island.

What’s your favorite place to get dinner?

La Oliva in the Old Town is one of my favorites. It’s directly opposite my shop, on my favorite street in Ibiza, Carrer de la Santa Creu. It has such a special atmosphere and feels like part of the island’s history. They always make me a special vegetarian dish, usually their truffle pasta, which I love.

Where is your favorite place to get drinks?

I love spending the day at the beach and then heading to Tirrapalla afterward. One thing I always enjoy is a Sparkling Lemon — it’s crisp, refreshing and perfect under the Ibiza sun (just sparkling lemonade and Bombay Sapphire gin). I first tried one while working on the E1 Series, where I designed a bespoke RaceBird with Bombay Sapphire inspired by the signature prints and aesthetic of my collections.

If you were to plan a trip for yourself in Ibiza, where would you stay?

I would stay at La Torre del Canónigo in Dalt Vila. It’s such a special place — full of history, character and incredible views over Ibiza.

What’s one tourist attraction you think is well worth the visit in Ibiza?

Dalt Vila is a must. Walking through the old castle walls and cobbled streets feels like entering another world. The history is incredible, and the views from the top are some of the most beautiful on the island. Some people even come into town just to explore the unique shops, and of course I love when they come to visit Annie’s Ibiza, my little treasure trove of magical party wear, archival vintage pieces and one-of-a-kind finds.

If you had time to visit only one museum or gallery while in Ibiza, which would you pick?

I would choose the Contemporary Art Museum in Ibiza Town. It’s actually just a 30-second walk from the shop, which makes it a very special place for me. It has an incredible mix of contemporary art and history, including fascinating Roman ruins inside, showing the beautiful layers of Ibiza’s past. It’s the perfect place to experience both the creative and cultural side of the island.

Where do you shop for fashion, beauty, etc. in Ibiza?

I love walking around the Old Town at night and discovering all the little shops and boutiques. There are so many unique places to visit, especially my friend Laura’s shop, Porta Official, and Archive Closet. 

What’s a good place to buy souvenirs in Ibiza?

I love the markets. Sant Jordi flea market is amazing for finding antique treasures, vintage pieces and things with a story. Las Dalias is also a beautiful experience.

What’s your top beauty or wellness experience in Ibiza?

Free diving is probably my favorite wellness experience. Being underwater with no phone and no distractions is the ultimate reset. It’s where I feel the most peaceful.

What’s the best place to take in nature in/around Ibiza?

Cala Xarraca has always been very special to me. I’ve been going there since I was young, and it’s one of those places that reminds you why Ibiza is so magical:  crystal-clear water, beautiful nature and a feeling of complete escape.

What’s your favorite recent discovery in Ibiza?

I always love discovering new hidden corners of the island, but one place I always return to is the north of Ibiza. It feels like the soul of the island, more peaceful and surrounded by nature.

This role is for someone who can lead a team, solve problems before they become emergencies, keep stores running smoothly, and also bring energy and creativity to the customer experience.

What You’ll Do

• Oversee daily retail operations across three locations and make sure each store is staffed, organized, open, and ready for business.
• Manage store leads and sales associates, set clear expectations, follow up, and hold the team accountable.
• Own scheduling, coverage planning, call-out response, and proactive problem-solving so operational issues do not automatically fall to the owner.
• Hire, onboard, train, coach, and develop staff while helping create a positive, professional, high-accountability culture.
• Maintain strong store standards including customer service, cleanliness, organization, opening/closing procedures, and weekend readiness.
• Support inventory flow, transfers, receiving, stock organization, replenishment, and communication between locations.
• Identify operational problems early, create practical solutions, and know when something truly needs to be escalated.
• Partner with the owner on sales goals, store performance, staffing needs, launches, and priorities.

Creative + Community

• Plan and execute in-store events, parties, workshops, trunk shows, launches, and other customer-facing experiences.
• Develop local partnerships and community outreach that bring new customers into the stores.
• Help create promotions and special retail moments around new products, seasons, weekends, and store events.
• Collaborate on merchandising, product launches, clienteling, and ways to make each location feel active and engaging.

You’re a Great Fit If You

• Have retail management or multi-location operations experience.
• Are calm, dependable, organized, resourceful, and comfortable making decisions independently.
• Naturally anticipate staffing and operational needs instead of waiting for someone else to solve them.
• Can communicate clearly and directly while still being supportive and respectful.
• Enjoy both the practical side of retail operations and the creative/community side of running independent stores.
• Are comfortable working across Los Angeles and Ventura locations and being present in stores when needed.
• Want real ownership of your role and are excited to help a growing independent retail business get stronger.

Compensation
$24–$28/hour, full-time, depending on experience.

About the Role
This is not a desk-only management job. We need someone who notices what needs to happen, communicates with the team, follows through, and can keep the stores moving without the owner having to be the default backup for every issue. The right person will have meaningful autonomy and the opportunity to shape how the retail operation grows.

To Apply
Please send your resume to me@haleysolar.com.

South Florida Emerges as a Hub for Beauty Founders

South Florida (encompassing Fort Lauderdale, Miami and Palm Beach) has emerged as a new home base for beauty and wellness brands. Key leaders of Crown Affair, Glow Recipe, Naturium and Vacation have relocated from New York to South Florida.

How Brands Are Rethinking the Influencer Trip in 2026

Influencer trips were once focused on big-name talent, but now more brands are hosting smaller, better curated trips. Brands now want content that will outlast the trip, and drive brand engagement beyond the creator’s own content. These trips are now long-game plays that are designed to stick in customers’ brains, rather than simply get in front of as many people as possible. {Vogue Business/paywalled}

Why Emerging Fashion Brands Are Betting on L.A. Manufacturing

California is the leading U.S. state for apparel manufacturing, and L.A. remains its main hub as it accounts for roughly 23% of national apparel-manufacturing employment. Anna Esposito, account director at L.A. manufacturer Lefty Production Co., said that the company is seeing more emerging brands interested in producing locally because they can review samples in person as well as change fit or construction quickly. L.A.’s cluster of apparel specialists also makes it different from manufacturers elsewhere in the U.S. {Glossy/paywalled}

Origin Story

After moving from Vietnam to the U.S. at 18 years old, Michelle Nguyen trained as an esthetician and lash tech before eventually opening her own salon. Believing that supplying product to lash salons had the potential of being far more profitable than owning salons, Nguyen started selling lashes out of her garage, which grew into PLA Beauty, now the largest professional lash brand in the U.S.

After 15 years of wearing lash extensions, Nguyen developed an allergic reaction to the adhesive. She tried every DIY lash on the market, but many poked and lifted. Nguyen leaned into manufacturing innovation, specifically 3D printing, to overcome these challenges. Nguyen spent a year collaborating with OPT, an MIT-adjacent engineering firm whose clients made medical devices using 3D technology, to 3D print a lash. The result is TAD Beauty. Powered by proprietary “Memory Flex” technology and featuring a unique microstructure that helps the TAD lash hug the natural lash. TAD lashes are the first DIY lashes to be printed on a curve, allowing them to wrap around the eye and spring back to shape after sleep and after pressure.

On Aug. 14, Sézane’s Brentwood Country Mart store, at 225 26th St. in Santa Monica, CA, officially reopened — permanently. That’s the good news. The possibly unfortunate news for Sézane’s biggest fans is that the store is smaller and more curated than its original — a “petit boutique,” as the brand calls it. The design is reimagined with a vintage apartment feel: glossy bordeaux lacquer, striped upholstery and antique mirroring that create a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.

Inside are the French fashion brand’s top sellers across all categories (clothes, accessories, shoes, bags and home goods), plus big changing rooms and a cozy ottoman for admiring your purchases. Of course, there’s still the iconic wall of knits ($100-$230) with cardigans, jumpers, pullovers and more. Tees emblazoned with “Paris <3 Los Angeles” are exclusive to the store.

The new store coincides with a bit of a relaunch for the brand. The Sézane website makes it clear that a “new chapter” is coming on Aug. 23, previewing silk scarves ($85) and cotton totes ($100). In an interview with Vogue Business, Founder Morgane Sézalory explained that the direction will be bolder and more structured, made with higher-quality, organic materials. The brand will also roll out new items at a slower cadence with a focus on the core products it does best instead of chasing trends.

Many of those new items are already in the Brentwood store, and the collection does feel like a more grown-up Sézane. We spotted a standout green funnel-neck leather jacket ($650) and tons of rich suede and soft textures throughout the clothes and bags.

This store isn’t the only new retail concept Sézane has up its sleeve. After debuting in Newport Beach, CA in May, “En Route,” its mobile Airstream shop, will travel to more locations. Made to feel a bit like a Parisian vintage market, it features a curated edit of Sézane designs, plus exclusive items. “Every piece we create, and now this Airstream, is designed to carry a little of the city we love and bring it closer to you,” Sézalory said in a statement. After two stops in L.A., it’ll head to San Diego and then Texas.

Get a first look at the store in the images and video below.

Origin Story

Rewrites is a luxury eyewear house built on the philosophy of clarity — in style, in choice and in presence.

Founded in 2023 by fashion stylist Joyce Gereige, Rewrites was created from a global perspective shaped across New York, Lebanon and Dubai. After years of working closely with women through styling, Gereige recognized that true style is not defined by abundance, but by intention.

Rewrites challenges the cycle of excess and returns luxury to its essence: thoughtful design, enduring quality and quiet confidence.

Each frame is conceived as a modern classic, with sculpted silhouettes, balanced proportions and materials chosen for longevity. Crafted from Mazzucchelli acetate and finished with Tac polarized lenses, every piece reflects a harmony of heritage craftsmanship and contemporary precision.

Beyond product, Rewrites represents a mindset: Through community gatherings, curated events and storytelling, the brand fosters spaces where conscious style and personal presence are celebrated.

Rewrites is a study in quiet luxury — where clarity, confidence and intention define the future of style.

“If you want to go out, if you want to take a tequila shot at 4 a.m., who are we as a skin-care brand to shame you for that?” Sade, now a physician and post-doctoral dermatology researcher, tells Fashionista. “We are actually going to do that with you and celebrate that with you.”

Beguelin and Sade launched 4AM in 2021 with two “all-in-one” serums: Rise Serum ($69) and Rest Serum ($69). Think of each product as a “multivitamin for your skin,” the brand’s marketing reads. Its Rise Serum focuses on skin barrier support via cotton stem cells (to protect against pollution), rosemary extract (to reduce inflammation) and aquaxyl (to hydrate at the cellular level). For improved skin elasticity, its Rest Serum utilizes garden sprout extract, niacinamide and ergothioneine (an amino acid that interrupts the aging process, according to the brand).

Inspired by circadian rhythm research, both serums feature lespedeza capitata, which emulates “skin cells’ ability to resynchronize and regulate rhythm-dependent biological functions such as skin hydration, detoxification and essential repair pathways,” per 4AM. Multi-functional products often get a bad rap in the beauty industry (we’re looking at you, 3-in-1 shampoos), but 4AM aims to shift this narrative.

“The thesis was really, ‘how can we make people’s lives easier through skin care? How can we make the all-in-one thing or the quick thing or what is now ‘shameful’ in the industry actually something that’s better and aspirational?'” Sade explains.

The New York City-based skin-care brand followed up its serum duo launch with reusable Overtime Undereye Masks ($16) donning its slogan, “late nights, early mornings.” But it was in 2025, when 4AM launched Clean Sheets ($23) — its super-soaked cleansing wipes — that the skin-care brand was catapulted into TikTok virality.

Just don’t call Clean Sheets “makeup wipes”: The co-founders are “trying to create a new category” known as “skin-care wipes,” since the individually wrapped sheets contain serum ingredients like rose water, centella asiatica, glycerin and vitamin B5. They’re also packed with four times the liquid of a standard makeup wipe to deliver a gentle cleanse with minimal tugging, per the brand.

“When we developed [Clean Sheets], we didn’t look at other wipes on the market as any sort of benchmark,” Beguelin says. “We looked at: What are our favorite micellar waters? What are our favorite serums? How can we put that into a wipe format?”

Since going viral on TikTok shortly after launching, Clean Sheets has sold out four times, says Beguelin. But while TikTok virality can send beauty brands soaring into the zeitgeist, it can also be a double-edged sword for a business: Sold-out inventories can signal a smash hit, but prolonged restocks can lead to a brand missing out on potential consumers. While trying to restock before Black Friday, Beguelin recalls running the brand’s bank account down to $400 to ensure there was enough product to meet consumer demand.

“After the third time that we ended up selling out and then increasing volumes of Clean Sheets, that’s really when we realized that wipes, for us, can be the platform that we built the entire narrative of the brand around,” Sade says.

Now, 4AM’s Clean Sheets order runs are 40x the size of the product’s initial one. Thanks to this surge in its manufacturing negotiating power and its bulk ingredient orders, 4AM could afford to produce more Clean Sheets for a reduced cost. Within the current economic landscape of brands passing down price hikes to consumers, 4AM is one of the few beauty brands lowering its prices. In July, the company announced that it was increasing its Clean Sheets box size from 25 sheets per box to 30 sheets per box, while simultaneously decreasing the price from $29 to $23. Broken down further, this places the price per sheet at $0.77, down from $1.16.

“The one thing that we really wanted to convey is [that] just because it’s expensive does not mean that it’s premium,” Sade says. “We are trying to get that consumer the best price possible so people can actually use it every day and have a premium product that’s not gated by a $50-plus price point.”

While gradually scaling its 5-year-old business, 4AM has also been expanding its retail footprint into major players like Revolve, Bloomingdale’s, C.O. Bigelow and, most recently, Target. The skin-care brand’s exclusive mini five-pack of Clean Sheets is available in more than 1,700 Target stores nationwide, and it is currently scaling up to launch its full-size boxes in these doors. In keeping with the brand’s ethos of embracing simpler solutions, 4AM’s main reason for launching into Target was consumer accessibility. According to the big-box retailer, 75% of the U.S. population lives within 10 miles of a Target store, making it an accessible hub for product discovery.

“We wanted to give the consumer that better experience without it feeling hard for them,” Sade says. “That is the core of the brand, that we’re giving you back your time. So it almost felt like Target was the perfect place because that is the place that you go [to] do your quick haul or run.”

Although much of 4AM’s branding is inspired by New York City’s nightlife, it attracts a wide-ranging audience, from lawyers to Alaskan fisherwomen. Above all else, 4AM wants its audience to treat their lives (and their skin-care routines) like “it’s a party.” To honor the LGBTQ+ community’s influence on club culture, a portion of every 4AM order is donated to New York City’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center.

As 4AM continues to expand its nationwide distribution, it’s going all-in on its mission to reframe the beauty wipes space as a celebratory, yet still convenient, experience.

“I think so many people fall into this trap of wanting to launch a million different products,” Beguelin says. “That is not our focus. We have plenty of room to grow in our category, and we want to really own that category.”

In 2024, Shein tasked six young designers to create repurposed garments as part of its Shein x Rescued program. This year, Uniqlo challenged Central Saint Martins graduates to create a scalable, upcycled collection and H&M relaunched its Design Award, a global competition for design students.

British retailer Asos is the latest to bet on young talent with the recent launch of Arrange Bespoke. The program invites designers to create exclusive, handcrafted, one-off pieces for Arrange, Asos’ elevated occasionwear line. The goal is to champion creativity and craftsmanship beyond seasonal collections, while simultaneously introducing new talent to a global audience, Vanessa Spence, executive vice president of Brand & Creative at Asos, tells Fashionista via email.

“Championing emerging talent has always been an important part of how Asos supports the fashion industry,” she says. “Through Arrange Bespoke, we’re giving the next generation of designers a platform to reach a wider audience while bringing fresh ideas, creativity and innovation to our customers.”

Its first collaborator is Johannes Warnke, a Central Saint Martins graduate known for his unique draping. He unveiled his design, a silk-and-sequin maxi dress made entirely from surplus materials, during Paris Haute Couture Week Fall 2026.

Warnke had caught Asos’ attention with his graduate collection, which explored reflection through sculptural draping, movement and layered reflective materials. “Because reflective embellishment and sequins are a recognizable part of Arrange’s design codes, there was an immediate creative connection,” Spence says. “Johannes brought a fresh, artistic perspective to elements that already exist within the brand’s DNA, making the collaboration feel both authentic and unexpected.”

Throughout the design process, Warnke was given considerable creative freedom to realize his vision and had several weeks to finish the piece, Spence shares. “We wanted the collaboration to feel like a genuine meeting of creative minds rather than a commissioned brief. Our role was to support and collaborate throughout the process while ensuring the final piece remained authentic to both Johannes’ vision and the Arrange identity.”

Currently, Warnke’s design is a one-off piece that will not be reproduced. The fact that it’s not being sold does raise the question: How will Arrange Bespoke measure its success if it’s not looking at sales data? “Success goes beyond traditional commercial metrics,” Spence emphasizes. “We’ll look at the quality of the creative outcome, the conversations it generates within the fashion community, engagement from our customers and how effectively it helps shine a light on emerging creative talent.”

That said, Arrange Bespoke is open to changing its production model in the future. “We’re intentionally keeping the format flexible as the initiative evolves,” Spence says. “Our focus is on creating meaningful creative opportunities, and future collaborations may take different forms depending on the designer and the concept.”

The company is already looking for new talent to bring on for future partnerships. It’s searching for designers who bring fresh perspectives, challenge expectations and have a unique creative voice, Spence shares.

“We see strong potential for Arrange Bespoke to become a recurring initiative that introduces customers to exciting new designers,” she says. “This first collaboration is just the beginning. Arrange Bespoke will continue to be showcased at major fashion moments such as London Fashion Week and beyond.”

Origin Story

Sincerely Yours was born from a deeply personal problem. Co-Founder Salish Matter struggled with sensitive, reactive skin but found herself caught between harsh acne products and trendy skin care that wasn’t designed for developing skin. When she began sharing her experiences online, thousands of teens revealed they were facing the same frustrations.
Recognizing that an entire generation was being overlooked, Salish teamed up with her father, creator Jordan Matter, beauty industry veteran Julia Straus, leading dermatologists, pediatric dermatology experts and cosmetic chemists to build a different kind of skin-care brand. Together, they set out to create products that were clinically credible enough for parents to trust and emotionally relevant enough for teens to genuinely love using.

From the beginning, Sincerely Yours was built alongside its community. More than 60,000 teens contributed feedback throughout development, while a dedicated Teen Advisory Board helped shape everything from product concepts to packaging. Every formula is dermatologist-developed, clinically tested and created specifically for developing skin.
The result is a new model for teen beauty: science-backed skin care that empowers confidence by listening to the very generation it was designed to serve.

From avid collectors to street style stars to everyday shoppers, there are a lot of sneaker obsessives out there. And while demand for the category is always high, it’s also always changing. So what’s trending sneaker-wise in 2026?

Few retailers would know better than StockX: The resale platform’s annual Big Facts report compares global sales from the first half of 2026 to the same period last year, spotlighting the fastest-growing brands in sneakers, apparel and accessories (along with what’s fueling growth in trading cards, collectibles and StockX Listings, its marketplace for used sneakers and vintage apparel).

For the past two years, Asics has come out on top as the platform’s fastest-growing sneaker brand, but it has officially been dethroned by Saucony, whose sales more than tripled year-over-year, up 239% for 2026. The brand’s buzzy ProGrid Omni 9 and ProGrid Triumph 4 sneakers pushed it over the edge. As for Asics, it’s still StockX’s fourth-largest sneaker brand, so the platform sees this as “more of a normalization than a collapse.”

Vans follows close behind Saucony at number two, with a 238% sales spike thanks to the ongoing low-profile sneaker trend. Plus, the skate brand’s sneakers are selling at significantly higher price points compared to 2025: The average resale price jumped from $102 to $180, while the average “price premium” — a measure of how much higher an item sells for on StockX than the original retail price — went from 12% to 69%, marking
the “biggest premium expansion of any sneaker brand,” according to the report.

Two Japanese brands whose products also align with the low-profile sneaker trend nabbed the third and fourth spots: Mihara Yasuhiro, which saw 191% growth, and Onitsuka Tiger with 162% growth. And if you feel like Salomons are literally everywhere, you aren’t wrong. Thanks to the brand’s XT-6 sneaker (and to a lesser extent, XT-4), Salomon’s growth more than doubled year-over-year, from +53% to +126%, and it landed at number five. Its average resale price also rose, from $166 to $193, as well as its average price premium.

When it comes to non-sneaker shoes (slides, mules, slippers and sandals), Bravest Studios jumped to number one after debuting at number five last year. Thanks to the maximalist shoe trend, the brand has seen a more than 1,120% increase in sales. Perhaps surprisingly for those of us who know more of their athletic footwear, Jordan Brand and Nike nabbed the number two and four spots, respectively: The former saw its non-sneaker styles jump 727% , the latter 138%. The report states the biggest driver for Nike was the Mind 001 slides, but the Air Rift and Mercurial Superfly cleats also helped. Burberry was number three, and Birkenstock number five.

In the apparel category, sales of the brand Godspeed surged a massive 1,603%, going from hundreds of trades on StockX to thousands in just one year, thanks to tees from the Voltage drop and courtside shorts. Adidas’ apparel sales also rose nearly 700% year-over-year thanks in part to jersey sales and our soccer-focused summer, plus those viral Chinese New Year track jackets.

Supreme is also set to make a comeback, according to the report. Sales are up 19% year-over-year, and average price premiums have gone up from 11% to 41%. Plus, six of the 10 best-selling apparel releases on StockX in H1 2026 were from Supreme, five of them box logo launches — what the brand was originally known for.

There’s some other fun data, too. If you’ve ever scrolled through StockX late at night, you’re not alone. The most expensive middle-of-the-night purchase was a used pair of Rick Owens cow-fur Geobaskets for $950. Read the entire report on stockx.com.

“I looked at every pain point in the traditional [nail salon] experience and used it as an opportunity to build something better,” Yeager tells Fashionista over email. “The Shade is a place you can actually come in, exhale and feel taken care of.”

Upon entering The Shade’s SoHo studio, guests are greeted by stone-like walls and sleek, modernist furniture instead of the typical rolling chairs seen in most nail salons. There’s no harsh fluorescent lighting or deafening pop music here, only soft ambient lights and soothing tones that aim to reduce overstimulation. From The Shade’s in-store product displays to its intimate suites, this futuristic, monochromatic aesthetic flows throughout the space.

After ceiling-length curtains conceal visitors from the outside world, they can choose between UV-protectant or collagen gloves — which are included with every manicure. (Nail lamps emit a low amount of UV radiation called UVA during gel curing, so UV-protectant gloves help guard hands against premature aging.) The collagen gloves — or single-use, lotion-filled gloves with removable tips — aim to boost the skin’s hydration and elasticity. Manicure prices range from $75 for bare nails to $265 for a full set, while pedicure prices range from $110 for bare nails to $135 for gel.

The Shade follows the Russian manicure method, where technicians file nails into the desired shape, buff out the edges and clean up the cuticle area without any water. Technicians then buff The Shade’s Cuticle Oil onto the nails for a glossy finish. For those looking for a long-lasting gel set, technicians will observe the condition of the guest’s natural nails and then proceed with the right course of action for the guest’s personal nail maintenance. Regardless of the client’s desired service, their long-term nail health takes priority over aesthetics at The Shade, Yeager says.

“Every guest gets a manicure that actually treats the skin, not just polishes over it,” she adds.

Each session also includes red-light therapy, which can ease inflammation and improve skin texture, per Yeager. She has even created and patented a specific red-light lamp that is used in treatments: It’s different from other such machines on the market in that it “doubles as a dust vacuum to reduce the fine particles people would otherwise breathe in.” The airborne dust from drilling away gel polish can potentially lead to long-term respiratory issues, but The Shade’s special machine sucks up excess dust before it can be inhaled. This innovation aims to foster a “healthier” nail salon experience — for both the technician and the client.

The Shade’s manicures and pedicures can occur simultaneously, with visitors laying face-down on a massage table in a secluded, dimly-lit room. This unorthodox positioning allows the customer to relax during their visit, while also allowing the technician better access to the feet and calves for the pedicure’s exfoliating callus refinement treatment and final massage. For an added boost of R&R, technicians also offer a complimentary, single-use caffeine sheet mask to reduce inflammation and redness.

“Upgrading the pedicure wasn’t about being different for the sake of it — it was about making it better and safer,” she says.

In keeping with its approach to a “wellness-driven” nail experience, The Shade’s lymphatic drainage treatments help to reduce puffiness and improve circulation for busy hands and feet. The nail salon has taken a page out of The Tox’s playbook, as Yeager’s studio chain (which first launched in 2019) specializes in these sculpting treatments. To close out both the manicure and pedicure, technicians massage The Shade’s Silhouette Sculpting Lotion into the hands and feet for a hydrated, smoothing finish.

The Shade’s in-store product assortment currently features seven SKUs, including its Cuticle Balm ($68), Cuticle Oil ($68), Silhouette Sculpting Lotion ($72), No. 1 Candle ($98), Beauty Brew Tea ($24), Glass Slipper Foot File ($26) and Off The Clock Face Mask ($30). This line was “thoughtfully developed as an extension of The Shade experience,” Yeager says, as it aims to function as the key to maintaining healthy-looking nails and cuticles between appointments.

“Ultimately, I wanted The Shade’s products to reflect the same philosophy as the brand itself: results-focused care that feels modern, luxurious and unlike anything traditionally associated with the nail-care experience,” she continues.

Today, The Tox boasts more than 90 franchise locations across the nation, and The Shade is also adopting a similar model. After officially opening its first location’s doors earlier this summer, the business is now courting potential franchise owners for expansion. Yeager intentionally created the modern nail studio as a “scalable concept,” thus laying the groundwork for The Shade to be successfully replicated in other major cities.

“Everything we do — the atmosphere, the UV protection, the collagen treatments, the red-light and lymphatic treatment that is included in all services — comes back to one belief: Self-care should actually care for you,” Yeager says. “That’s the standard we’re setting for the modern nail studio.”

Ahead, watch Fashionista Associate Editors Janelle Sessoms and Catie Pusateri’s inside look at The Shade’s new flagship studio located at 345 W Broadway.

PR Representation: Infinity Creative Agency
How to get in touch: stylist@auter.co

Origin Story

In 2025, celebrity stylist Rob Zangardi founded Auter on the simple belief that the coat is the outfit.

After more than two decades dressing some of the world’s most recognizable figures, Zangardi believed that outerwear is often the first thing people notice and the piece that defines an entire look. Yet he felt there was an opportunity to create coats that combined the precision of luxury tailoring with the ease and confidence of everyday dressing.

Drawing on years of styling experience, Zangardi created Auter to reimagine outerwear as the foundation of a wardrobe rather than an afterthought. Every silhouette is designed with intention, balancing proportion, structure, movement and comfort to create pieces that feel timeless and effortlessly modern.

Crafted using premium Italian fabrics, elevated shearlings and thoughtfully developed animal-free furs, each coat reflects an uncompromising commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Designed to be worn season after season, Auter pieces are made to become lasting wardrobe staples.

Danish designers can be relied upon to provide nuanced takes on rising fashion trends without sacrificing comfort or individuality, resulting in looks that feel rooted in (an exceptionally stylish) reality. Labels like Baum und Pferdgarten, Skall Studio, The Garment and OpéraSport held up that reputation this season, confirming that our closets are about to be filled with: color- and pattern-blocking, pops of light blue, elastic headbands, balloon pants and perhaps even mullet hems. But if that’s not your speed, I’d recommend the “I literally just rolled out of bed” look that dominated several runways.

Peruse all the standout Spring 2027 trends from Copenhagen Fashion Week via the galleries below.

Bedtime Story

Pajama dressing took many forms across the Copenhagen runways: The Garment focused on dressed-up sets and slips, Skall Studio did nightgowns to take you from bed to the prairie, and others like Freya Dalsjø and Institution by Galib Gassanoff took a more literal route as models appeared to be swathed in (very luxurious) white sheets.

Mullet Over

Mullet hems never stay out of the trend cycle for long, it seems. Designers love a party in the front/business in the back moment, and in Copenhagen they're creatively applying the silhouette to tops, dresses and skirts alike. Several showed high/low garments as layering pieces: over capris (OpéraSport), trousers (By Malene Birger) and cargo pants (Herskind), while The Garment doubled up on nostalgia trends with bubble-hem mullet gowns.

Battle of the (Head) Bands

Tradwife-coded headscarves are still prevalent on runways (and in street style), but another hairline-covering accessory seems poised to take their place: thick elastic headbands. They were seen keeping models' hair out of their faces and giving a casually polished vibe to various looks at By Malene Birger, Baum und Pferdgarten and Nicklas Skovgaard.

Balloon Pants Pop Off

Fashion loves to get excited about a new(ish) pant silhouette, and right now designers are all about balloon pants — or genie pants or parachute pants or whatever you happen to call these voluminous, rounded trousers with tapered hems.

Blockbuster

Many Danish labels eschewed quiet minimalism for bold, unexpected color and pattern combinations, often within the same garment. Nicklas Skovgard mixed colors and ginghams alike; Caro Editions went all-in on '90s-tinged maximalist clashing; and Mr. Larkin blended colorful plaids with stripes. On the simpler end, Gestuz and Baum und Pferdgarden did sporty contrasting accents and Munthe showed classic patchwork denim.

Blue Pilled

Even though it's been trending for a few seasons now, there's something about these pale blue shades that continue to feel fresh whether they're worn head-to-toe like at The Garment and Mr. Larkin, or used as a pop of color like at Munthe and Gestuz.

With more than 130 million daily active users flocking to Reddit for genuine (read: transparent) product reviews and conversations, the platform’s new report tracked the biggest shifts within its beauty-related forums from the past year. Perhaps it’s fitting that “no-makeup makeup” is fizzling out as consumers are increasingly reminiscing about 2016-era beauty trends that spotlighted bold cut creases and sculpted faces beaten to the gods. Beauty brands are also tapping into nostalgic throwbacks: This July, Milk Makeup reissued its 2016 OGs — Tattoo Stamp, Eye Vinyl and Roll + Blot — each retailing for $20.16.

Although the post-pandemic “clean girl” phenomenon has reigned supreme in the beauty industry for years, consumers are once again embracing glitz and glam. This renewed appetite for creativity shows up in Reddit’s data: In r/MakeupAddiction (“r/” indicates subreddits, or distinct discussion forums on Reddit), views to eye-shadow palette posts increased 56% and tutorial discussions rose 38%. Beauty brands are already responding to consumers’ evolving tastes: Saie (a classic “clean girl” staple) just debuted its SuperSuede Baked Eye Shadows and Marc Jacobs Beauty unveiled whimsical star-shaped single shadows for its June relaunch.

Conversations around makeup experimentation are surging on Reddit, signaling a shift away from the pursuit of “effortless” perfection. Views to discussions around “pre-shower makeup” (a.k.a. trialing bold, colorful looks right before hopping in the shower) and “playing” with makeup increased nearly 400% over the past year in r/MakeupAddiction and r/Makeup (two of Reddit’s biggest makeup communities).

Reddit’s community-based beauty culture is also punctuated by a 32% decrease in posts mentioning keywords like “fix,” “hide,” “cover,” “correct” and “conceal.” This coincides with a 220% increase in posts mentioning “embrace,” “highlight,” “enhance” and “emphasize,” which showcases the presence of supportive online communities in popular subreddits like r/HoodedEyes, r/ShortyNails, r/BlackHair and r/AskWomenOver40. The gender-inclusive r/Bald community (where users navigate hair loss or choosing to shave their heads) also skyrocketed to 1.2 billion views, up 467% year-over-year.

The platform serves as a popular hub for product discovery and education, as seen in r/AsianBeauty, where users recommend sunscreens from K-beauty brands like Beauty of Joseon, Skin1004 and Round Lab (with each bringing in about 700,000 to 1 million views). This online community support is also leading to an IRL impact on consumer confidence: According to the report, “nearly 7 in 10 people feel more confident buying a product after reading about it on Reddit.”

CPHFW Spring 2027 showgoers turned up wearing headscarves, lacy layers, bloomers, prairie dresses and baby bumps — the ultimate tradwife accessory — en masse. One attendee even went so far as to wear a literal apron as a dress, layering it over a distinctly anti-“Little House On the Prairie” tailored blazer and collared shirt for a study in creative contrasts. In most cases, the street style set modernized their throwback looks in some way, whether via a leopard-print East/West handbag, studded leather accessory, pair of statement sneakers or brightly colored print (in direct opposition to the inherent drabness of the standard neutral trad color palette).

Other non-tradwifian trends we spotted (and loved) in Copenhagen: creative layering, 2000s-era going out tops, balloon pants, ample use of sheer fabrics and a variety of minimalist thong sandals. Keep scrolling to see the best street style looks from outside the Spring 2027 shows in Copenhagen.

Consumers Criticize Tarte’s Snatch Stick Marketing

To market its new contouring product, Snatch Stick, Tarte Cosmetics converted an ambulance into a “glambulance” and offered content creators “snatch consultations.” Online users are criticizing the rollout, saying it makes people feel like they need procedures to be beautiful, while others claim it trivializes emergency services. A Tarte spokesperson responded to the backlash by stating that the company never meant to suggest that people should change their appearance and that the campaign aimed to show that you can create a sculpted look without a procedure. {Modern Retail}

Under Armour Reports Revenue Decline for Q1 Fiscal 2027

In Under Armour’s Q1 fiscal 2027 report, net revenue dropped 3% to $1.1 billion, with North America revenue declining 9% to $610 million. The company credits this to “a challenging consumer demand environment,” including inflation and more cautious spending by shoppers. The company forecasts revenue to continue to decline this year, but is optimistic its ongoing restructuring plan will turn things around in the future. {Under Armour}

Why GMV Is a Misleading Success Metric for Resale Platforms

Resale platforms are looking beyond gross merchandise value (GMV) — or the total value of all products sold on the platform — to accurately measure revenue performance. While a high GMV looks impressive, marketplaces are limited in how much commission they can charge. Now, resale platforms are looking for additional revenue streams, such as selling ads or charging sellers for additional features. However, these alternative revenue sources come at the risk of alienating both buyers and sellers. {Glossy/paywalled}

Why This HBCU Banned Bonnets and Durags

Brown said his only aim with the dress code “is to prepare students to be successful.” Some students expressed confusion and frustration with the HBCU’s new dress code, noting that it seems to be a non-issue in the university’s established “dress to impress” culture. {The New York Times/paywalled}

Origin Story

Kerativ was founded by Stanford-trained, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Joyce Park, who continues to actively see patients at Skin Refinery, while also educating millions as @TeaWithMD. Her unique vantage point, both in clinic and across a highly engaged digital audience, gives her direct, real-time insight into how consumers experience hair loss, what confuses them and what actually drives behavior.

One concern consistently surfaced across both channels: patients felt overwhelmed by options and unclear on what actually works. Many were looking for something straightforward, effective and easy to stay consistent with. Kerativ was built directly from that gap. It reflects how Dr. Park approaches hair loss in practice: focus on the scalp as the foundation for healthy hair, use clinically validated ingredients and design routines simple enough to follow every day. Rather than creating another hair-care brand, she applied the same evidence-based principles she uses in dermatology to build products that bridge clinical science with everyday usability.

The result is a scalp-first hair-care brand that combines dermatologist expertise, skin care-inspired innovation and thoughtfully designed formulas that make consistency achievable because lasting results depend on products people will actually use.

Origin Story

Walk With Dada started with a problem: Danielle Anderson couldn’t find a sandal when living in the city that actually did it all — comfortable enough to walk all day, stylish enough to wear for coffee runs to dinner and sturdy enough to survive a New York summer without falling apart. So she made a sandal, guided by her father, a board-certified podiatrist, who helped ensure the sandal had a supportive foundation. In 2023, Anderson and Courtney Bolton officially launched Walk With Dada.

Three years later, it’s grown into a small-batch leather sandal brand run by two friends who split their time between Atlanta and St. Petersburg. They are building the brand on nights and weekends, around full-time jobs and full-on parenting, self-funded the whole way. It releases one new style or colorway a year.

Eileen Fisher took its sustainability efforts a step further this week, expanding its Renew take-back program with the debut of the TK Resewn Collection, a “limited-edition capsule that transforms one of the brand’s most iconic fabrics into an entirely new collection,” as described in a press release. Made in Los Angeles in partnership with Studio 9D8, the capsule features an A-line mini dress, gathered skirt and boxy top, each “thoughtfully reconstructed from returned pairs of the brand’s best-selling black pants made of Eileen Fisher’s signature washable stretch crepe (‘TK’) fabric,” per the brand. Rather than recycling the fabric, the design team developed a process to sort, deconstruct and repurpose the returned garments into usable fabric panels. Shop the collection at eileenfisher.com.

Chris McMillan’s Clarifying Shampoo

Hairstylist Chris McMillan’s eponymous hair-care brand launched its take on clarifying shampoo this week, a cooling formula that “removes buildup and detoxifies the scalp with a…minty tingle,” without stripping strands. Made for use on all hair types, it’s also safe for hair color, extensions and sew-ins. Shop it for $38 at chrismcmillan.com and sephora.com.

One/Size’s Color Corrector Stain

Patrick Starrr’s brand One/Size introduced an innovative “Color Corrector Stain” — a waterproof color corrector stick that evens, brightens, neutralizes and corrects the appearance of discoloration without transferring. Available in six shades for $28 each, the swivel-up crayon also features niacinamide to help improve skin tone over time. Get it at onesizebeauty.com and sephora.com.

Makeup By Mario’s New Eye Shadow

A New Serum From Dr. Dennis Gross

There’s a new serum from Dr. Dennis Gross: the DRx BioRejuvenation Serum ($89), the first-ever topical treatment in the brand’s DRx franchise (best known for the SpectraLite FaceWare Pro LED mask). Reportedly the result of more than five years of research, the formula relies on collagen amino acids as an alternative to simply applying collagen directly to the skin (since it cannot effectively penetrate). It also includes glutathione, niacinamide and adenosine to support skin’s “natural energy cycle” to boost collagen production and improve skin tone, signs of aging and the skin barrier. Shop it at drdennisgross.com and sephora.com.

Claire’s’ North American business is now owned by Maryland-based private holding company, Ames Watson. (The firm acquired the business and intellectual property in a $140 million deal that closed in September 2025.) Instead of liquidating and closing stores as some expected, Ames Watson committed to keeping more than 900 locations open across the U.S. and Canada with a promise to revamp the 65-year-old brand.

Almost a year later, the first store under the new generation of Claire’s reopens Aug. 8 inside The Shops at Santa Anita in Arcadia, Calif., a suburb east of Los Angeles. The mall, home to tween favorites like Hollister, Aerie and Sanrio, was selected in part because it’s the largest store in the Los Angeles area, making it well suited for launch events and creator content, according to a brand rep. (More on that later.)

Perhaps the biggest update to Claire’s is in the piercing experience: Gone are the spring-loaded piercing “guns” many millennials remember from childhood. Claire’s now uses a hand-pressured instrument with single-use sterile cartridges, which the company says offers greater control and a more hygienic experience. The entire piercing area feels ripe for a digitally native audience who craves an IRL moment.

“We know that Gen Alpha wants to touch, feel and try before she makes the commitment of getting pierced,” Jillian Cueff, chief merchandising officer at Claire’s, tells Fashionista. “So things like our little earring tree, where you can check yourself out before you make the commitment of getting pierced, [are] new to us.” Lollipops, de-stressor balls, hair clips and stickers are also available for those who want to lean into the experience (and possibly document it on social media). Cueff says they were mindful of keeping merchandise away from the area so it feels more like a calm, personalized moment.

But of course, shopping is close by, with upgraded jewelry options. The “premium plated brass collection” features more elevated materials that are still affordable, Cueff says, and includes favorites like Stack Lab sets for the perfect earscape. “This is where I think you can see where we’re going with the product: We’re really trying to modernize, but we’re not trying to make it inaccessible to anyone,” she adds.

It wouldn’t be Claire’s without trend-driven jewelry, seasonal offerings (Halloween is already ready to shop) and BSF necklaces. (Kids these days say “BSF” instead of “BFF.” Weird, I know.) Scattered throughout the classics are modern accessories like bag charms, fidget toys and lip gloss keychains.

Speaking of lip gloss, the Claire’s beauty section now features more than a few sets of press-on nails. There’s a whole wall of lotion, body spray, undereye patches and more for those “GRWM” moments Claire’s knows are important to this generation. “One of the things that people always talk about is ‘why is beauty important at Claire’s?'” Cueff says. “One of [those] things is that we want to be a playground for girlhood. So many brands are aging her up and telling her to use products that mom uses or, ‘here’s what you need to do to look like a Kardashian.’ We really want to celebrate girlhood and the kind of products that you want when you’re having your first beauty experience.”

That includes charms on body wash with scents like cake, strawberry and cotton candy. “These are all her flavors,” Cueff continues. “We’re not trying to be too serious here. We’re just trying to have fun. That’s what you want her to do when she comes into the store and that’s what our approach is to the merchandising.”

The small tweaks to merchandising are evident throughout the store, including putting products at a height that younger shoppers can “touch and feel,” Cueff says. “Because in a world where everyone’s online TikTok Shop-ing and doing everything digitally, this is a space where we know she can come and play IRL and have so much fun with merchandise that’s built just for her.”

That’s not to say those trendy products from social media don’t make an appearance: They’re front and center as soon as you walk into the store, with the new “trending” section complete with “KPop Demon Hunters” ramen and those viral butter-shaped squishies. “We’re feeding new products into this area almost every week as we find new things that are trending, whether it be slime or blind balls,” Cueff says. The idea is that the customer can enhance their piercing experience or, if they don’t need another piercing, check back in to shop what they see online.

Related: How Can Gen Alpha Beauty Brands Successfully Age Up With Their Consumers?

More IRL moments include collaborations with talent that feels like “hers” and not favorites of her parents, or, well, magazine editors. Claire’s focus is on becoming a launchpad for YouTubers and digital creators to reach their hardest‑to‑reach fans (Gen Alpha girls) through product, storytelling and store experiences. To wit, on July 25, Clarie’s launched its partnership with Lana Rae, the popular YouTube/Roblox creator behind Lana’s Life. She now has an exclusive beauty and accessories line, a VidCon booth, a Roblox extension and plans for meet-and-greets.

Gen Alpha may live online, but Claire’s is betting that they crave more sensory, in‑person moments. The rest of the 900+ store upgrades will continue rolling out through fall and into 2027.

“All of the things that you can think of that we would do to support women in business and women in fashion businesses, that’s what we’re doing,” Okaro tells Fashionista. “And we intend to stay here and do it for quite some time.”

Okaro, an economic and social justice activist with a background in law, got the idea for Custom Collaborative while working with a woman named Mariama to alter her off-the-rack clothing. Okaro began brainstorming about how Mariama could “make more money and reach more markets,” and soon envisioned a way to bridge the gap between underprivileged women and the wider fashion industry.

The nonprofit organization offers three skill-building programs — Training Institute, Business Incubator and Cooperative Development — that provide participants with design and entrepreneurship workshops, in addition to mentorship. Its Business Incubator program supports graduates (and other emerging designers) with career and financial guidance, while the Cooperative Development program helps develop worker-owned businesses by advancing fair wages, equitable working conditions and ownership opportunities.

After completing an interview (as well as math and English language assessments), applicants are selected to enter the 15-week Training Institute program, where they have access to courses on pattern-making, garment construction, business plans and leadership development at Custom Collaborative’s Midtown studio. In keeping with its commitment to expand women’s economic success, participants are given weekly $200 stipends to attend, in addition to metro fare assistance.

On Tuesday evening, Custom Collaborative celebrated Cohort 16’s graduation with a runway show titled “Written in the Stars.” The cohort’s six members — Angela Altagracia Baez, Emmeline L. Celestine Dorelus, Malika Randall, Viviana Collazo Richardson, Jazmine Saint-Victor and Natalia Semenuk — unveiled their final handcrafted designs, spanning cultural homages and upcycled creations.

Baez, a Dominican designer from the Bronx, says her love of fashion stems from the “beautiful dresses” her grandmother, a lifelong seamstress, created for Baez and her cousins. “I still remember those designs that she made for us growing up,” she says. Although Baez began the program with no formal sewing experience, she discovered her love of upcycling denim and transforming excess fabric into patchwork outerwear. Her final garments included a black-and-gold gown resembling an hourglass and a drop-waist pleated dress.

“Learning about [sustainability] also inspired me to create art because now I’m thinking, ‘what can I do with everything else that I don’t use?'” Baez says. “I save every little piece of scrap fabric that I use.”

Dorelus, who immigrated to the U.S. from Haiti three years ago as a single mother, sprinkled celestial references throughout her two designs: a structured black pantsuit featuring a gold star-shaped button closure and twinkling cape; and an asymmetrical slip dress with white butterfly-printed lace across the bodice. Dorelus says the program felt longer than 15 weeks given all the industry knowledge the cohort gained. “They [taught] us not for one moment, but for [our] whole life,” she adds.

Semenuk spent most of her career working as a seamstress, and after recently relocating to New York City and looking for other opportunities, she returned to her fashion roots. “My mind [was] going crazy about creating and staying with clothing and fashion,” she says. Her two looks — a tiered mini dress and a boatneck gown paired with a ruffled shawl — embraced an oceanic color palette of midnight blue and cream. Pulling inspiration from water and the night sky, Semenuk’s gown appeared to combine seafoam’s airy texture with the ocean’s stillness via pom-pom details and a satin-like skirt.

For Okaro, what sets Cohort 16 apart from previous classes is that “they have really owned who they are and their responsibility through turmoil and success and feedback and fear.” Ahead, see the rest of the looks from Custom Collaborative’s “Written in the Stars” graduate showcase.

A Jewish Fashion Editor Addresses John Galliano’s Met Gala Exhibit

Faran Krentcil, a Jewish fashion editor (and the founding editor of Fashionista), penned an op-ed in the New York Post addressing John Galliano’s upcoming Met Gala exhibition. Despite her “personal fury” surrounding the designer’s past anti-Semitic comments, Krentcil writes that the exhibit is a “fine idea” as Galliano appears to have “done real work in the 15 years since his vile explosion.” She adds that Jewish scripture is on his side, as it “calls us to gaze at our former enemy and search for shared humanity.” Read her full essay here. {New York Post}

Origin Story

Designer and Neptunalia founder Nedal Habany has always felt both fear and fascination about water. While most swimwear brands stay on the lighter, sunnier sides of the shore, Neptunalia is unafraid of the dark waters.

Inspired by the idea of sirens, who are both seductive and deadly, the collection blends contrasts: hardware that adds a sharp, edgy touch and boyish details that play with the idea of femininity. Each piece is designed for duality, moving from the dance floor to the water, “embodying a bold, fearless femininity that embraces both strength and allure.”

It’s against this backdrop that Fashionista surveyed more than 500 industry professionals across a range of fields, resulting in the 2026 Inside the Fashion Workplace Report.

Beyond the current state of compensation, professional happiness and burnout rates in fashion jobs, the report also provides insights into the future of industry employment. For one, we learned that layoffs are becoming more common: 38%, or more than one-third, of survey takers said their company had layoffs in 2025 — a 6% increase from the year prior. Perhaps relatedly, a higher portion of respondents said they don’t feel confident in their job security going into 2026. There was also a small uptick in respondents who said they were actively looking for a new job: 56%, vs. 50% last year.

Of course, these metrics vary by sector: On average, those in retail, corporate and wholesale roles reported higher confidence in job security than those in product development, media and styling. Far more designers (55%) witnessed layoffs than sales professionals (33%).

These results reflect macro conditions seen across the job market, beyond just fashion. Entry-level jobs are declining and, resultantly, unemployment among young college graduates is rising. Meanwhile, AI will undoubtedly continue have an impact on the job landscape by both reducing the need for some roles and creating demand for others.

In its State of Fashion 2026 report, McKinsey found that by 2030, across industries, 700,000 net new jobs will be created in the U.S. and 2 million in Europe. It also found that up to 40% of workers in developed countries will need to “reskill” or change roles by 2030 due to technology. Diving into specific fields, the report estimates that around 22% of marketing tasks can be automated by then, and that demand will rise for “product flow engineers, integrative marketing strategists and consumer experience designers” as well as expertise in “data quality, system integration, digital twins and marketing automation.”

Related: Which Fashion Jobs Pay the Most?

In the U.S., the Bureau of Labor Statistics also provides up-to-date statistics and projections for employment growth across sectors and positions. Between 2024 and 2034, total employment across all industries is expected to grow 3%. But among fashion retail businesses, it’s expected to decline 3%. Broken down further within this sector, it projects a 6% decline for PR specialists, a 10% decline for sales reps, a 2% decline for buyers and a 2% increase for retail salespeople. Those numbers are modest compared to employment in the apparel manufacturing industry, which overall is projected to decline a whopping 30% in the same period. Within that: -24% for fashion designers and -27% for patternmakers.

Much of this aligns with the results of our survey, where job security confidence was highest in retail and lowest in product development and production. For more, download the full report below.

Of the many consumer businesses we cover at Fashionista, only a few have
experienced what can truly be described as “meteoric” rises. Among them are
beauty company Deciem (creator of The Ordinary) and DTC giant Quince. Both beloved for offering accessibly priced, high-quality products, the two entities also happen to have one other thing in common: Dakota Kate Isaacs.

The brand builder began her career in agency PR before becoming Deciem’s first U.S. employee, overseeing the company’s expansion into more than 2,500 doors across North America and playing an integral part in its acquisition by The Estée Lauder Companies — at the time ranking as ELC’s largest acquisition in its history.

(In the interest of full disclosure, Dakota also happens to be a friend! She and I have had the pleasure of working together for almost the entirety of our careers, and I played a little part in helping her land the Deciem job – listen to our interview for more about that.)

After nearly a decade with Deciem, she was tapped by then-up-and-coming (and now $2 billion-a-year) retail brand Quince, becoming its head of brand strategy & narrative. Isaacs sat down for an interview on The Fashionista Network to share her wide-ranging insights — including how she landed these major roles without ever applying for them, her career advice for young women, some of the challenges she’s faced and the “how” of it all with regards to Quince’s business model. (Yes, I asked her for her thoughts on it being referred to as a “dupe” company.)

Chanel Sales Reportedly Spike by 16% in First Half

Chanel’s sales reportedly rose by about 16% in the first half, Bloomberg reported on Tuesday. This revenue boost is likely due to wealthy shoppers buying designer Matthieu Blazy’s new collections, which went on sale in March. Sales at Chanel’s fashion division (its largest unit) grew by a similar double-digit percentage, according to Bloomberg’s source. {Bloomberg}

Capri Holdings Posts 3.5% Revenue Drop in Q1 2027

Michael Kors saw its revenue decline by 7.1% to $590 million, while Jimmy Choo’s revenue rose 10.5% to $179 million. The company now expects total revenue of approximately $3.4 billion for the fiscal year 2027, down from its previous outlook of $3.525 billion. {Capri Holdings}

Procter & Gamble to Acquire Wellness Company Thorne

Procter & Gamble (P&G) has acquired Thorne, a wellness company known for its supplements.

While terms of the deal were not disclosed in the official release, P&G CEO Shailesh Jejurikar told CNBC that the deal is valued at $3.8 billion.

Retailers Are Selling Economic Rights to Their Potential Tariff Refunds

In search of immediate cash, some retailers are selling off the economic rights to their potential IEEPA tariff refunds in an approach called “tariff refund monetization.” For example, a third party bought $68.9 million of American Eagle Outfitters’ refund claims for $18.6 million in cash, according to the company’s quarterly report from June 3. Since American Eagle Outfitters began receiving refunds from the government on claims, $33.1 million was paid to the buyer. {Retail Dive}

Origin Story

The Dawn of Good was created from a simple realization: Men are often taught to show up for everything and everyone… except themselves. Founder Hosea Chanchez wanted to change that. Not with complicated routines or unrealistic standards, but with something honest, accessible and effective. The Dawn of Good is where that shift begins, where better habits, better products and a better relationship with self all come together. It lives inside Chanchez’s parent company, A Very Good Company, a growing ecosystem of companies built on the idea that “good” should exist in every part of life.
