Today his girlfriend, model Gigi Hadid has done the same – revealing a capsule collection she’s worked on with American brand Tommy Hilfiger. Modelling in the lookbook herself (see above), Hadid’s collection includes clothing, footwear, accessories and fragrance and sees the California native put “a West Coast stamp on Hilfiger’s signature East Coast classics.” The whole thing has a decidely maritime feel – something that is particularly noticeable in the peaked caps, sailor tops, cable knits, naval badges and anchor motifs. What will Alexa Chung's fashion line look like?

Chung has, arguably, become one of the biggest influencers on what young women wear over the past decade. Her own line follows a series of collaborations with other brands including Madewell and Eyeko, drawing on her own personal style. How Rebecca Minkoff Keeps Disrupting the Fashion Industry. Female Fashion Designers Are Still in the Minority. LONDON, United Kingdom — Gender parity is an elusive goal for many industries and fashion is no exception, with men disproportionately dominating top roles across all areas of business.
It is a particularly ironic state of affairs for an industry where women make up the overwhelming majority of the consumer base. Despite the recent trend for gender neutrality on the catwalk, behind the scenes female designers are still outnumbered. For the Spring/Summer 2017 fashion week season, which kicked off with New York Fashion Week this Thursday, BoF has analysed the womenswear brands showing across New York, London, Milan and Paris fashion weeks. Our findings show that there are more male designers creating clothing for women than there are women. Of the 371 designers helming the 313 brands surveyed by BoF across the four fashion weeks, only 40.2 percent are female. “Women unfortunately are still seen as a minority,” says Julie de Libran, artistic director of Sonia Rykiel.

Well, according to The Fashion Law, Céline‘s 2016 fall/winter collection will be her last.
While there has not been official confirmation yet from Philo or Céline, this isn’t the first time rumors of her departure have surfaced. Back in August last year, industry chatter pointed to her impending resignation as Philo was getting tired of commuting to Paris and wished to stay in England to spend more time with her family. Philo made a name for herself when she joined Chloé with Stella McCartney in 1997, before resigning in 2006 at the height of her career to focus on her family. She then joined Céline in 2008. Karl Lagerfeld takes Chanel on a nature trail in Paris. At Chanel, the show starts long before the clothes appear.
Karl Lagerfeld’s overture began a few days ahead of this collection with the show tickets: simple slabs of eco-friendly plywood looking nothing like haute couture’s traditional beribboned and gold-embossed invitations. Once inside the Grand Palais on the day of the show, guests found themselves transported from the leaden skies and frenetic streets of Paris to a blissed-out, spa-like stage set, with a painted blue sky lit by floodlights and a backdrop of trees in full leaf. A minimalist pavilion in slatted wood sat in the centre of a lawn edged by paths picked out in yet more pale wood.
The natural idyll was a notable departure from Lagerfeld’s recent Chanel shows, which have been staged in a Paris street scene (September 2014), a cafe (March 2015), a casino (July 2015) and an airport (October 2015). The setting represented nature at its most chic. With the Oscars a month away, eveningwear is front of mind at haute couture week. The Rise of the Fashion Hipster. NEW YORK, United States — This past Paris Fashion Week, the young label Vetements headed by Demna Gvasalia was the talk of the town and their instantly recognisable logo-ed raincoats and sweatshirts were seemingly everywhere.
They were mostly worn by the young, self-conscious, well-informed fashion insiders and were instant fodder for the street-style photographers, who themselves tend to be young, self-conscious, and well informed. What we are witnessing is the rise of the fashion hipster — a new consumer class that in its self-image and purchasing habits is not driven by the notion of luxury but by characteristics normally associated with hipsterism — irony, camp, and insider humour. They are as self-conscious in their status markers as the Veblenian leisure class, but their status is not stamped with the Chanel logo on cashmere, rather, with “Vetements” in Champion font on sweatshirts. Their relatively low price allowed young people to buy into the hot new brand.
