CNN —It’s been nearly 20 years since I moved from New York to London. I don’t drink alcohol, so, when I first moved to the UK, I avoided the pubs for about a year. To my great surprise, I discovered that British pubs were nothing like I had imagined! “Yeah?” “Yeah!!!!! According to the UK Tea and Infusions Association, Brits drink over 100 million cups daily and 36 billion cups per year!

I had 11 direct reports, and in the first 18 months, nine of them were gone," Charles Bergh, CEO of Levi's Strauss, said. Still, Bergh told CNBC's Christine Tan that his biggest regret was not firing the wrong people fast enough.

With an Instagram audience of 1.2 million followers, a popular photo-editing app, and now a magazine, Tessa Barton — better known by her moniker Tezza — is building a media empire. The Tezza app, similar to photo-editing tools like Adobe's Lightroom or VSCO, announced this week that it had surpassed 20 million downloads and has about 2.5 million monthly active users. Turning social media followers into app usersGrowing an audience on social media helped the two cofounders build and grow the app. Barton's latest world-building play took place during New York Fashion Week in September, where the influencer launched a new magazine: Tezza Magazine. Its content pulls from brands Barton has collaborated with or admires, as well as art created by Tezza app users.

The style on the streets at New York Fashion Week is often an indicator of what people will be wearing as fashion weeks continue in London, Milan and Paris. Based on the crowds outside the latest round of shows, which ended Wednesday, one might wonder if individuality is going out of fashion. While there were plenty of stylish people, the risk-taking that makes it fun to document street style felt a bit sparse. Among the most exciting trends was a fresh shape for women’s suit jackets, a sort of inverted triangle with wide shoulders and a narrower body. And more than a few looks incorporated fringe, suggesting the dawn of a new era for urban cowboys.

Led by Scorsese, the filmmakers aimed to be scrupulously authentic in the ways they depicted the Osage, down to the threads in their clothing. “Few people in the world could afford that, but they documented their lives and their travel and where they lived so beautifully. By the early 20th century, the Osage were as au courant as Vogue editors. The wedding scene in “Killers of the Flower Moon” is a showstopper, with Mollie Kyle, the bride played by Gladstone, and her bridesmaid sisters in richly embroidered skirts, finger-woven belts and bespoke military coats, complete with brass buttons and braided epaulets. The look is topped off by towering 18-inch hats decorated with French ribbon and festooned with feathers dyed cyan or magenta.

New York City CNN —Swarming crowds and extravagant locations are par for the course at New York Fashion Week. On Monday, a packed rooftop show hosted by convicted felon Anna Delvey became one of the more unusual runways the city has seen in recent years.

Tough Times for Men’s Wear? Designers Find a Workaround

You’ve maxed out your credit cards, asked your family for loans, begged vendors for favors, cajoled friends into sacrificing salaries to model for a day, and then suddenly it is New York Fashion Week and, with it, New York Men’s Day, the only chance some men’s wear designers will have to be seen. “What else could we do?” said Erin Hawker, the indefatigable publicist who first envisioned New York Men’s Day a decade ago. “We staged a peaceful protest on the sidewalk.”It’s Sinatra 101. What you also require, as it turns out, is Gandhian tactics and nerves of steel. The city backed off for a few hours, and 10 designers were briefly given their chance.

TikTok has cemented itself as an essential advertising venue for brands aiming to reach its young users. But at the party, the marketers were abuzz about TikTok’s efforts to sell products from the app itself. The reason: After nearly a year of testing, speculation and some internal upheaval, TikTok this week is rolling out TikTok Shop for all users in the United States. Both enable users to buy products in a few clicks without leaving the app. But it is a venture that other popular social platforms, including Instagram, have not succeeded with in the United States.

Fashion Tribes of New York

It’s been a while since New York was the main character in any costume drama, a while since it starred as anything other than a problem: abandoned, messy, crime-ridden, economically challenged. But as New York Fashion Week began, the city’s designers were telling a different story. One about the city as a place of chaos, movement and dreams. “I was thinking about the inspiration that New York has given me, and it made me want to explore New York style archetypes, and my own personal New York style archetypes, from when I came to the city for my first job,” Stuart Vevers said in a preview before his lively 10th-anniversary Coach show, held in the heart of Midtown Manhattan at the New York Public Library. They were part of the New York of his mind, a place where people come from elsewhere (Mr. Vevers is British) and find their tribe, which isn’t necessarily defined by geography any more — by uptown or downtown, east or west — but rather by state of mind.

Ms. Burton, then its head of women’s wear, had been working with Mr. McQueen since 1996, when she started at his label as an intern after graduating from Central Saint Martins, the design school in London. Within a year of her succeeding Mr. McQueen as the brand’s creative director, Ms. Burton created the Princess of Wales’s ivory lace wedding gown, which became more famous than any dress designed by Mr. McQueen. Ms. Burton, who rose to lead a fashion house in an industry still largely dominated by men, helped Alexander McQueen evolve from a label beloved by fashion superfans into a modern luxury powerhouse. Kering, which bought a 51 percent stake in Alexander McQueen in 2001, is also reconfiguring its organization and its assets. The conglomerate has appointed Maureen Chiquet, a former chief executive at Chanel, to its board of directors and has named Francesca Bellettini, the chief executive of Saint Laurent, as the deputy chief executive of Kering’s portfolio of brands.

Once, back in the early 2000s, I owned a black Helmut Lang pantsuit. That was a time when even the word “pantsuit” kind of made me cringe, but there was something about how this one was cut — three-button, single-breasted jacket and flat-front (but louche) pants — that skewed all its establishment implications. I wore it until I wore it out, and have been in mourning for it ever since. When I talk about it, which I still do, there is almost always another person who will come up to me with a story of their Helmut Lang. Mr. Lang wanted to go first, so he hopscotched to early September, and the entire city went with him.

CNN —Animal rights activists interrupted Coach’s runway show at New York Fashion Week on Thursday to campaign against the use of leather. One woman held a “Coach leather kills” sign, while the other had the same slogan painted on her front. “It’s time to STOP selling someone else’s skin and drop leather, @Coach,” animal rights organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) posted later on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, alongside a video of the incident. An activist is seen protesting outside during the COACH Spring 2024 Ready To Wear Runway Show and dinner event at the New York Public Library (NYPL) during New York Fashion Week. New York Fashion week kicked off on Thursday, and will run until September 13.

"Hip-hop fashion is defined by its brazenness, its originality, its verbal symphony. Earlier this year, the Museum at FIT celebrated hip-hop fashion with an exhibition titled "Fresh, Fly and Fabulous: 50 Years of Hip Hop Style." After five decades, luxury and fast-fashion brands are collaborating with hip-hop designers instead of just being inspired by them. "Us not asking for permission to work with high fashion designers," Ambrose said. "All these are a result of the influence of hip-hop, hip-hop culture, hip-hop fashion.

But what’s really considered a plus-size body or garment? Mike Coppola/Getty ImagesThough there are no universal criteria for plus-size clothing, the general perception of what constitutes plus-size has changed over time. Sixty-seven percent of US women are considered plus-size, Downing Peters said. The dearth of plus-size clothing adds to a stigma that makes people with bigger bodies feel marginalized, she added. Other stores have meanwhile stopped separating standard and plus-size clothing into different departments, which may help eliminate stigma, Keist said.

When did Marc Jacobs, erstwhile downtown darling turned New York fashion éminence grise, become a philosopher of the modern condition? And, on Monday, in a show at the New York Public Library, a three-minute meditation on the abbreviated attention span generated by our digital lives and the looming future of A.I. Thirty seconds for the models — 29 of them — to march in one direction. Thirty more seconds to march out again in the other direction. And then a minute or so at the beginning and end for people to realize what had just gone on.

CNN —Princess Diana left behind a vast style legacy, and soon enthusiasts will be able to bid for one of her most famous looks. The celebrated “black sheep” sweater first worn by Lady Diana Spencer at a polo match in 1981 when she was engaged to the now King Charles III will headline Sotheby’s Fashion Icons auction in New York and online between August 31 and September 14. The sweater will be on display at Sotheby's in New York at the start of Fashion Week on September 7. Artists Sally Muir and Joanna Osborne and their knitwear label Warm & Wonderful created the knitted, bold-red, wool crew neck, which is adorned with rows of white sheep and one black sheep on the front, in 1979. In the photograph, the lone black sheep appears to be on a higher row of white sheep on the new sweater than on the original.

What Is This? A Handbag for Ants?

MSCHF, the creative collective responsible for the Big Red Boots that clomped across New York Fashion Week in February, is thinking smaller for its next accessory release. On Wednesday, the group plans to unveil its Microscopic Handbag, a specklike rendition of Louis Vuitton’s OnTheGo tote. This is not the kind of tote bag that can be filled up with vegetables at the farmers’ market: At most, it could be used to carry around a platelet or two. Kevin Wiesner, the chief creative officer of MSCHF, positioned the bag as a commentary on the impracticality of ever-shrinking luxury handbags. “I think ‘bag’ is a funny object because it derives from something rigorously functional,” he said in an interview.

As techno music blasted, one teenager after another stopped to pose for cameras in a cordoned-off area of Gansevoort Plaza in the meatpacking district. Upon their return to a tented area, they exchanged hugs and high fives with their fellow models. After all, wasn’t New York Fashion Week not until September? And why was the audience cheering with the kind of abandon typical of parents at a graduation ceremony? As it happened, the event that took place last Wednesday evening was a graduation ceremony of sorts: This was the annual runway show for the senior class of the High School of Fashion Industries, the only trade-based public school in New York City dedicated to fashion.

Misconduct by senior leadership was often ignored or glossed over, and choas led to high turnover. But behind the scenes, some staff members say the organization has been wracked with internal turmoil, ineffective leadership, and deep layoffs. Many sources said allegations of misconduct by senior leadership seemed to be ignored or glossed over, and a chaotic environment led to high turnover. The following day, Color of Change eliminated another 12 positions, and again, many of them were part of the union. (Color of Change did not report executive salaries on its 2020 tax filings and has not released its 2021 returns.)
THE LOUD CROWD Guests in blinding-bright outfits at Copenhagen fashion week in 2021. Photo: Getty ImagesIN SEPTEMBER of 2009, Laurel Pantin, then 24, was late to a show during New York fashion week. “I’d been out the night before at the Alexander Wang party,” said Ms. Pantin, now a 37-year-old consultant and stylist in Los Angeles. When his site posted Ms. Pantin’s photo, she was flooded with messages from friends and acquaintances—many of whom had no connection to fashion at all. Ms. Pantin compared the effect of being photographed on the street to “being the heroine in a movie, except it’s your real life,” she said.

She landed a stylist job on season 2 of 'Next in Fashion' after dropping out of fashion school. I wouldn't have been able to land my first major stylist job at New York Fashion Week if I had been at school. Three days later, he called and said he was on the New York Fashion Week calendar, and asked if I would style his show. These are a few models I styled for Nicholas Raefski’s Fall/Winter 2022 presentation at New York Fashion Week. I was allowed to make TikTok content on the Netflix set, as long as I didn't give away anything creatively.
