Read MoreBella Hadid's Swarovski Ambassador Role Hits a Speed Bump in Israel
/
The appointment of supermodel Bella Hadid as ambassador for jeweler Swarovski has generated its first campaign, dripping with color-saturated, visual appeal. Conceptualized by creative director Giovanna Engelbert, and shot by photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot, the brand message is transformative for Swarovski.
AOC always does a last 24 hours Google search on our posts, and the Jerusalem Post’s story on Israel’s rejection of Bella Hadid as Swarovski ambassador is in the #3 position, ahead of the press release.
The Yalon group, which owns Swarovski stores in Israel, has issued a statement distancing itself from Bella Hadid as the new ambassador for the jewelry brand. Limited headlines in the Israeli press — but including the important Jerusalem Post — carry a similar message, calling Bella Hadid a “top model and anti-Israel activist”.

/
In a moment shy on sunny thoughts in America, Pete Davidson gives us reason to smile. Pete is fronting his first major fashion campaign for H&M, after a couple prior shorts. B-Reel Stockholm is behind the campaign featuring the SNL comedian and actor directed by Tim Godsall.
The marketing strategy “Wear that feeling” is created to capture fresh energy for H&M in the menswear category. Men are not known for being fashionistas in the style of women. Rather, they turn to film, TV, music and other cultural inputs to influence their style.

Read MoreGigi X Frankies Bikinis Launches Online May 11, with a NYC SoHo Pop-Up
/
Gigi Hadid is the latest talent to team up with Los Angeles-based swimwear brand Frankies Bikinis. The collab is extra special because in real life Hadid is a childhood friend of Frankies Bikinis founder and creative director Francesca Aiello.
Another childhood friend Alana O’Herlihy, shot the campaign for the 98-piece collection, which will land online at Frankiesbikinis.com on May 11, followed by a second drop on June 2. Francesca Aiello recently sold a minority stake of Frankies Bikinis to Victoria’s Secret & Co. for $18 million. She will continue to lead Frankies Bikinis, with its first New York pop-up in NYC’s SoHo neighborhood coming soon. Kudos to O’Herlihy who launched Frankies Bikis when she was still in high school.

The development of an artisanal approach is different from what is being labeled ‘ethical’ by websites like Good On You.
Leather is a perfect example. Hermès will never be called ethical because they are using leather. Even though they agree to the highest possible worker standards and environment-friendly policies in tanning and how the animals are treated, it’s leather.
Note, though, that even Stella McCartney can’t get a top rating on Good on You, which suggests a bleak future if even she can’t cut it with the uber-progressives. Stella does get a ‘good’ — or a B on a 5-point scale. Note Stella McCartney’s rating is 2018.
