Dear Downloader,
In the week that saw Kerby Jean-Raymond step down as Reebok’s creative director, the Winter Olympics kicked off in style in Beijing with sponsors ranging from SKIMS to Prada and Louis Vuitton, and Copenhagen Fashion Week ended on a colorful note with Ganni’s Love Forever Ever digital showcase.
Meanwhile, the fashion industry has been getting ready for Valentine’s Day, with special capsule collections being released by the likes of Balenciaga, Beyoncé’s Ivy Park, Gucci, Loewe, Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty, and more. But while they might have set our hearts aflutter, no recent campaign has whetted our sartorial appetite quite like Jacquemus’ Spring collection preview.
Titled 'Le Splash’ and shot by Tom Kneller and Zoey Radford, it features Puerto Rican musician Bad Bunny dressed in a number of looks from the French label’s latest menswear and womenswear collections, ranging from an acid green suit to a limoncello yellow sweater. As for the look de résistance? A pink linen dress worn with sky blue heels and tennis socks.
And while we patiently wait for the beginning of New York Fashion Week, check out the fourth instalment of our new podcast, The Guest. In this episode, Matthew Spade — aka @mat_buckets — discusses the eternal quest for the perfect grey sweatshirt, Charlie Chaplin's wide trousers and casual fashion in Japan with menswear writer and freelance creative consultant Sam Diss.
Until next week,
Morgane, Content Lead
