I do believe that every designer has a shelf life within a brand, especially if it’s something that takes a lot of creativity, a lot of thought, a lot of evolving a brand. There’s only so many times one designer can do that before fatigue sets in. I was at Coach for 15 years. I was at Tiffany for about six. I had my own brand for about six. One of the things that makes it exciting is that I’m involved in everything from being on the board, to the stores, to the marketing, to the product, to events. It…

“I’m not there yet,” says Tory Burch, as a model walks into a conference room wearing a satin jacket in an athletic, boxy shape, with leather twine threaded through eyelets around the collar and hood. On one side of her sits Pookie Burch, associate creative director – and Burch’s stepdaughter – and on the other Brian Molloy, a stylist who has worked with Burch since 2020, just after she took a purely creative role at the company in 2019, relinquishing many of her CEO duties to her husband, Pierre-Yves Roussel.The satin of the jacket is maybe a little too “maternal evening,” says…

Still, they must show up in the right way.Reddit’s value lies in siloed, topic-driven communities (subreddits), where users gather around shared interests. Conversations are authentic and rarely driven by influencers, but because posts aren’t easily tracked via public hashtags – and content circulates through deep-linking or internal cross-posting – it’s much harder to monitor without purpose-built tools. To tackle this, in June 2025 Reddit launched Community Intelligence and Insights, an AI-powered platform that analyses its discussion data to surface trends and audience sentiment.New Balance tapped into this for the UK launch of its Fresh Foam sneaker. Working with media planning and…

“Brad and I had been friends for years. One Tuesday night, I had a dream about him. In my dream, I’m sitting on a couch and I’m looking at him. He’s standing and a woman is dressing him. He’s in head-to-toe green, a bright green, including a hat, and it’s all cashmere. I go, ‘What are you doing? You look like a leprechaun.’ And he says, ‘I just need more softness in my life.’”As far as origin stories go, God’s True Cashmere has one of the craziest. The cashmere brand was founded in 2019 in Los Angeles by Brad Pitt…

Cecilie Bahnsen burst onto the Copenhagen Fashion Week scene 10 years ago this month. And today, the designer — one of Copenhagen’s biggest fashion exports — is returning to her home city for a one-off archive show, celebrating the brand’s heritage and its long-standing creative community. Ambitiously, this celebratory showcase will not replace the brand’s usual Paris show, which is taking place on 1 October, or show the same pieces. When I visited the brand’s Copenhagen atelier two days before the show, her team were working on both collections at once.“Right now, we feel very calm and excited at the…

Copenhagen Fashion Week (CPHFW) turns 20 next year. And this season, the arguable “fifth city” of fashion felt like it was levelling up.Spring/Summer is always a bigger season in the Danish capital, and if you speak to anyone during the January event, they implore you to return when the weather is better. It wasn’t just better weather: this season, the CPHFW schedule was more packed than usual, with 44 shows and presentations, as more and more brands from across the Nordics and beyond pile into CPHFW to align with its sustainable ethos and take advantage of its growing guest list…
