What Is Your Definition Of Fashion?

In the age of AI shopping agents, finding a human touch is becoming increasingly rare. ChatGPT is working on positioning itself as a destination for personalized shopping recommendations , while major brands like Gap and Ralph Lauren (among many others) have embraced their own AI assistants. Leading affiliate marketing platform ShopMy is approaching things a little differently. Rather than churning out another AI agent, it's introducing Noir, a concierge personal shopping experience connecting consumers with real human curators. Launching on Wednesday, Noir allows shoppers to receive personalized recommendations across product categories, essentially functioning as a "personal shopper in your pocket," ShopMy Co-founder Tiffany Lopinsky tells Fashionista. Consumers can send in prompts ("I need a floor-length gown for a black-tie wedding ," for example) that are routed to ShopMy's personal shoppers, who are called "curators" in the platform...

"The fresher the better" is a guiding principle most of us follow when it comes to what we eat and drink. But is that also the case when it comes to skin care ? Yes, according to the people behind "freshly made" skin-care brands like Exponent, Skinome and Skin at Peace.

Sponsored Story If you've noticed a shimmering, warm trail of scent in the front row this season, you're not imagining it. While the industry often chases the loudest new launch, insiders are gravitating toward something far more intimate. Enter Golden Kiss , a fragrance from Beguile that doesn't sit on the skin so much as melt into it, like a lingering kiss you never want to forget. Photo: Courtesy of Beguile. The Making of a Modern Signature Golden Kiss opens with a bright spark of Bergamot and Blackcurrant, lifted by crisp Apple and a subtle, sophisticated flicker of Pink Pepper. It feels luminous: energetic, but controlled. Polished, never overpowering. As it evolves, Rose, Jasmine, and Violet bloom at the center, softened by a juicy touch of Raspberry. The effect is romantic without excess, the olfactory equivalent of a vintage s...
