What Is Your Definition Of Fashion?

In February 2022, as COVID-19 restrictions loosened and consumers itched to bring the life back into dark days, Byoma skin care gained immediate attention. Launching with a sleek, geometric, color-blocked design, the London-based brand immediately made a splash on social media, primarily targeting Gen Z. According to the brand’s launch agency, its release campaign generated 58 press placements in four weeks, including 14 standalone features and 253 social mentions across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, with a reach of more than 27 million users. Its social-first design was a stark contrast from the minimalist, muted packaging that had been dominating the industry in its millennial optimism days. Brands including Nécessaire, Ouai, Aesop and The Ordinary contributed to cohesive shelfies and quietly luxurious beauty counters. Even in the case of Drunk Elephant, which notably implemented bright color into its packaging in 2013, the pop functioned primarily as a point of ...

British Fashion Council CEO Laura Weir’s regeneration strategy is taking hold and the results are tangible.

Welcome to Factory Tour , where we take you inside the manufacturing facilities of our favorite brands to reveal how the products we buy are actually made.  Nestled in the northern Italian countryside, brushing shoulders with the Alps, are Falconeri’s two cashmere factories in Biella and Avio. There, the 26-year-old Italian fashion house oversees nearly every stage of its production process. This thorough oversight is intentional, as the time-honored craftsmanship characteristic of Falconeri’s cashmere garments doubles as the antithesis of fast fashion. “Falconeri believes that modern luxury is defined by authenticity, exceptional craftsmanship, versatility and longevity,” Gianni Forlini, chief business officer of Oniverse U.S., tells Fashionista over email. “From the selection of cashmere in Mongolia to the specialized expertise of the teams in Biella and Avio, every stage reflects the brand’s commitment to the quality of natural m...

Its parent company OTB Group announced the news Friday, stating in a press release that his exit marks the conclusion of a “transformative chapter in the brand’s history.” Martens will remain creative director of Maison Margiela — also owned by OTB — a role he took on last year after John Galliano’s departure. Diesel founder Renzo Rosso tapped Martens to lead the denim powerhouse back in 2020, introducing himself to the role with the “Diesel x Diesel” campaign, which dug into the label’s late-1980s archive for inspiration. From there, fabric twisting and wrapping (techniques he’d honed in his previous position at Y/Project) quickly became a defining feature of the designer’s collections for the brand. “Glenn Martens’ c...
