ICYMI: Womenâ€s Recap (Oct. 24 – Oct. 30)

In case you missed it, hereâ€s what happened this week in womenâ€s fashion, beauty, and sneaker news. 

Fashion

Iconic

The Council of Fashion Designers of America, Inc. (CFDA) will be hosting the CFDA Fashion Awards on November 10. It was recently announced that Zendaya will be crowned the 2021 Fashion Icon. The actress is the youngest recipient of the award and is being recognized for her global impact on fashion. Sheâ€s joining a list of past Fashion Icon recipients such as Beyonce, Rihanna, Naomi Campbell, Jennifer Lopez, and Lady Gaga.

Stay tuned for the CFDA Fashion Awards premiering next month.

Athleisure Meets High Fashion 

Following the Fendace line, Fendi taps SKIMS for an athletic wear collection. Athleisure and shapewear have been a popular category as of late. These two brands acknowledge that there are blurred lines between underwear, activewear, and clothing. 

The collection features logo hosiery, sports bras, bodycon dresses, and more. Will we see Zucca print apparel to follow suit?

The collection prices range from $950 – $4,200. Which pieces are you hoping to get your hands on?

The games continue 

Korean Model and Squid Game star, HoYeon Jung is the face of the latest campaign from Heron Preston for Calvin Klein.

Jung is seen in a yellow bra top and matching jeans featuring a no-makeup makeup look. Another image exhibits a tee and briefs with Prestonâ€s signature orange branding and CK logo. The model is joined by a diverse cast under Prestonâ€s direction with talent such as Kaia Gerber and Jennie from BLACKPINK.

Check out Jung in her Calvins and Season 2 of Heron Preston for Calvin Klein now available online.

Beauty

Word on the street is that Jacquemus is plotting to enter the beauty space. The French luxury brand, loved by bloggers and celebs like Kendall Jenner, Gigi & Bella Hadid, Rihanna, and more, is most recognized for its tiny purses and stunning suiting (think: oversized blazers and trousers) in trendsetting color palettes.

According to WWD, the project is slated for introduction in 2022 in partnership with Puig, a Spanish fragrance and fashion house.

Cue ‘Da Baddestâ€

 

Curology partners up with social media influencer, Bretman Rock on his first skincare campaign. The influencer has an Instagram following of 17 million and a YouTube following of 8 million.

This collaboration highlights Bretmanâ€s skincare journey with his customized Curology formula.

“I have been using all of the Curology products. I am using the cleanser, the moisturizer, and the custom formula bottle,” Rock explained in a press release. “I felt that if anybody was going to make Curology that skincare brand, it was going to be me…”

The campaign was significant to Bret as he was able to work with Asian-American Curology team members, “Itâ€s important to me that fellow AAPI executives and creatives who look like me allowed me to be a part of this. There is so much power in this shoot and itâ€s so much more than a skincare shoot, itâ€s my creative vision that Curology believed in and itâ€s a vision I got to have because another member of my community allowed me to have it.”

Check out the campaign and more on Curologyâ€s website. 

Sports

Any Bachelorette fans here? This week we caught a few WNBA athletes on the show: Diamond DeShields of the Chicago Sky, Dearica Hamby of the Las Vegas Aces who will be coaches of the two teams.

On the WNBAâ€s Instagram account, we saw a few snippets of the basketball challenge the contenders had to participate in for a shot with the Bachelorette contestant Michelle Young.

Sneakers

Earlier this summer, Fear of God introduced a mule to its footwear lineup. While this may have seemingly flown under the radar for many sneakerheads initially, itâ€s in line with the current obsession with mules, mocs, and slides and released in full family sizing for men, women, and (as Lorenzo joked on his Instagram) rascals.

While perhaps overshadowed by a plethora of releases hours earlier, these popped up on our SoleSavy monitors and most people were able to purchase.

AJ15 Collab 

Billie Eilish has been killin†it from music to fashion. This week Jordan Brand released the Air Jordan 15 Billie Eilish collaboration that was highly anticipated by fans and sneaker enthusiasts alike. Eilish is known to go against the grain and do things her way, this collab is no different.

The AJ15 is her favorite Jordan silhouette so itâ€s only right that she was able to collaborate on this specific pair. The shoe features tonal hues and sustainable fabric.
