We always look forward to the street style in London, which tends to reflect the experimental, adventurous stuff we see on the runways. People are designer-loyal, too: You’ll see girls lining Simone Rocha’s front row in her signature puff-sleeve, flowery, pretty-yet-tough dresses and coats, while Molly Goddard’s crowd is bound to turn up in poufs of rainbow tulle. We have a feeling we’ll see a lot of khaki checks before Riccardo Tisci’s sophomore show for Burberry, too. Phil Oh is on the ground shooting all of the week’s wildest and most colorful looks; scroll through his latest coverage here, and check back for his daily updates.
Timothée Chalamet has topped a list for the best-dressed male celebrities in the world.
The Little Women actor, who has gained a reputation for his enviable style on the red carpet, ranked higher than stars including actor Brad Pitt, singer Troye Sivan and rapper Skepta.
The list includes 50 of the best-dressed men across the globe, as decided by British GQ.
The esteemed publication stated that Chalamet is an example of an actor who takes successful sartorial risks on the red carpet.
“Plenty of actors decide to take risks on the red carpet, and for that we applaud them, but so often it backfires,” the magazine wrote.
Not so with Timothée Chalamet, who wears the trickiest of designer ensembles but manages to look as cool and comfortable as if he were wearing regular black tie.”
Under the slogan ‘A Winter Affair’, the JOOP! couple leaves the hustle and bustle of the city behind this autumn/winter 2020/21 and heads to the hotspots amidst the peaks of the Alps. Long walks through nature, a weekend for two or partying with friends – the new JOOP! collection offers fashion for all occasions.
Against the backdrop of fascinating scenery and breathtaking panoramas, special moments in life are cultivated and celebrated. Outdoors, but also inside by the fire, at the bar or when dining together, the JOOP! man opts for casual yet eye-catching looks from the new JOOP! Collection and is perfectly styled whatever the occasion.
The legendary JOOP! cornflower logo reveals a new design for the second season, forming a creative connection with the Dynamic Products by JOOP! Cornflower and comfort assume centre stage. Easy-care properties and resistance to creasing also dominate thanks to better product performance, as impressively proven by the JOOP! dynamic shirt, for instance – a must-have for every wardrobe. Highly breathable, rapid-drying 3D stretch also distinguishes this innovative shirt.
Suits are modern and stylish in a mix & match look – sometimes sporty with jogging pants, other times elegant and formal with suit trousers. Outer fabrics reveal an interplay of soft wool blends and jersey, emphasising a sporty character. Elastic lining guarantees flexibility and comfort.
The outerwear also focuses on flexibility with ultra-light, comfortable stretch fabrics. The final chapter in this stylish story features jersey pieces for the perfect finishing touch to the casual look. In our hectic everyday lives and especially during travels, the Dynamic Products prove to be indispensable companions that excel through performance and no-fuss handling.
The new JOOP! Cornflower features across various product groups. Another new element is a dynamic cornflower print in a graphic, linear composition created by the JOOP! design team. The JOOP! brand lettering and cornflower outline motif merge to form a skilful, creative symbiosis.
The designs can be found on knitwear as jacquard patterns and as flock prints on jersey. The existing chessboard pattern continues to feature. This gives the Dynamic Product capsule collection a modern boost with seasonal hints.
Spanish fashion brand Desigual has unveiled a 100 percent sustainable collection made in collaboration with Ecoalf that has been made from waste and recycled raw materials.
The capsule collection has been designed to “minimise consumption of natural resources” while also being what the brand calls a “story of true love that transforms waste into timeless designs”.
The wintery line adopts the concept “reuse, reinterpret, rethink, relove” and features timeless designs across outerwear, trainers, bags and accessories, which it adds have been made to “last a lifetime”.
Key styles include short and long padded jackets that are made from 100 percent recycled nylon and are 100 percent Vegan, as they are free from any materials of animal origin. Both brands also add that because they have been made entirely with recycled materials and with reused textile waste, Desigual reduced CO2 emissions by 28 percent and cut the use of natural resources by 27 percent.
Ecoalf x Desigual sustainable collection
While the lightweight trainers have been made from recycled polyester from plastic bottles, and the first 2-in-1 reversible beanie designed exclusively for Desigual by Ecoalf is made from recycled materials, which was produced using 20 percent less water consumption, 50 percent less energy usage and 60 percent less CO2 emissions.
Other accessories in the capsule collection include two backpacks made from recycled nylon, with the black backpack being lightweight and waterproof, and took 20 percent less water to make as well as utilising recycled polyester from bottles and fishing nets.
The move is part of the Desigual’s wider commitment to sustainability, which it states is a “path it will continue to follow in future collections,” with 11 percent of its spring/summer 2020 and 20 percent of its autumn/winter collections being sustainable.
Commenting on the collaboration, Javier Goyeneche, president and founder of Ecoalf, said in a statement: “Reducing environmental impact is everyone’s responsibility. This is why alliances between fashion industry companies are essential to continued progress towards a model that facilitates sustainable fashion manufacturing.
“Joining forces with Desigual in this effort to pair their unique designs and creativity with sustainability and a commitment to the environment is both challenging and satisfying.”
Ecoalf is a pioneering brand in terms of sustainability and innovation, launched 10 years ago with the goal of manufacturing the first generation of fashion items made from recycled materials that would be able to match top non-recycled products in terms of quality, design and technical properties. They have developed more than 300 different fabrics including materials the brand recycles such as plastic bottles recovered from the seafloor, cotton, used tyres, abandoned fishing nets and wool.
By recycling plastic bottles, Ecoalf states that it makes water savings of 20 percent, power savings of 50 percent, reduces air pollution by 60 percent, and saves 27 percent in terms of natural resources.
Desigual isn’t new to sustainable innovations, in 1984 the brand was born through a now-iconic jacket made from scraps of vintage jeans. The denim patchwork jacket became one of the world’s first upcycled garments.
Adidas has eroded Nike’s dominance of the US market in recent years, helped by partnerships with celebrities like Kanye West and Pharrell Williams.
HERZOGENAURACH, Germany —
Adidas will start selling a new collection designed with singer Beyoncé
on January 18 in a relaunch of her Ivy Park brand that includes shoes,
clothes and accessories, mostly in maroon, orange and cream.
Adidas
described the collection, which features on the cover of January’s Elle
magazine, as gender-neutral. It includes jumpsuits, cargo pants,
hoodies and cycling shorts, mostly featuring signature Adidas
triple-stripes.
The German sportswear brand announced it was
teaming up with the singer in April to relaunch the Ivy Park brand
Beyoncé started in 2016 together with British fashion chain Topshop. The
company did not give financial details.
The partnership comes as
Adidas seeks to attract more female customers, an area where it has
lagged behind bigger rival Nike and German competitor Puma, which saw
its sales boosted by a collaboration with singer Rihanna that ended last year.
Adidas
does not expect much of an immediate help to sales from the initial
Beyoncé collection, but it will ramp up over time, Chief Executive
Kasper Rorsted told analysts in November.
“You’re going to see
several launches coming up, but they have no substantial revenue impact
and this has been part of the plan all the time. You will see that
change throughout next year,” the chief executive said.
Adidas has eroded Nike’s dominance of the US market in recent years, helped by partnerships with celebrities like Kanye West and Pharrell Williams, but Nike has been growing faster in China and Europe, a trend that continued in the latest results.
Ivy Park said last year Beyoncé had bought the fitness clothing brand from Topshop.
Charity finds one in five won’t re-wear new outfits, despite spending average of £73.90 each
Britons are poised to spend £2.4bn on new outfits for the Christmas party season this year – yet many items may be worn fewer than three times – a survey shows.
After shelling out an average of £73.90 per person on partywear for the festive period, one in five people admit they won’t wear the same outfit to more than one party or event, according to the study from environmental charity Hubbub.
The charity is highlighting the findings as another example of the environmental and financial impact of fast or throwaway fashion, amid growing concerns that the industry is wasting valuable resources and contributing to the climate crisis. With consumers now bombarded with advertising for Christmas partywear, it is urging shoppers to consider second-hand clothing, swapping and even renting outfits rather than only buying brand new.
Sarah Divall, project co-ordinator at Hubbub, said: “Vintage and
pre-loved clothing has never been so on trend and it’s only going to get
bigger as people realise the massive environmental impact of the
fashion industry. Going green doesn’t mean you can’t dress up. There are
so many eco-friendly options out there now, including clothes swaps,
renting, pre-loved and charity stores, so you can look good and save
money without damaging the planet.”
Men are set to spend more than women – £88.14 per person compared with £63.12 – the survey of 3,008 UK adults found. And when it comes to sparkly dresses and sequins, only 24% of respondents said they knew that most contain plastic. Hubbub analysed 169 party dresses from 17 online, high street and designer outlets and found 94% are partially or totally made from plastic or plastic-derived fabrics.
A damning UK parliamentary committee report this year found that the textile industry creates 1.2bn tonnes of CO2 a year, and is responsible for the consumption of vast quantities of water, while 35% of the microplastics in the ocean come from the synthetic fibres in abandoned clothing.
A glimmer of good news is that the younger generation – 16- to
24-year olds – are adopting greener ways to dress, with higher numbers
swapping with friends (36%) and buying from charity shops (30%) than
older consumers.
Meanwhile Asos, one of the world’s largest online fashion retailers, will on Monday announce it has signed up to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s New Plastics Economy Global Commitment, an initiative to stop plastics becoming waste or pollution. The retailer, which has 20.3m global customers – including 6.4m in the UK – is stepping up its work to make its plastic mailing bags more eco-friendly. The bags are already 100% recyclable and made from 25% recycled material – rising to 65% in 2020 – but it is taking further action to eliminate “problematic or unnecessary” plastic packaging by 2025.
A British Retail Consortium spokesperson said: “Consumers can be assured that, on average, the clothes they are purchasing have lower environmental impacts. Retailers are making strides to ensure old clothes can be turned into new ones for a more circular economy.”
