Models Adwoa Aboah, Lina Zhang and Beyoncé Ambrose headline the Chloé FW2022 campaign, styled by Camilla Nickerson. Zoe Ghertner [IG] captures the campaign images.
Gabriela Hearst — unlike McCartney — is committed to using leather in her clothes because her supplier is credentialed by the EU and the leather is sourced from meat industry by-products.
Chloé used only recycled cashmere in her knitted sweaters and skirts. The barren ground on which the models are standing in these images is referencing this concept of overgrazing and a total depletion of the soil.
Adut Akech, Amanda Murphy, Andreea Diaconu, Lina Zhang and Nora Attal power their way through the streets of Manhattan with positive spirits and strong backbones in the Tory Burch Fall 2022 campaign..
Not only does Tory Burch design for the total woman, but she is one with a strong sense of civic responsibility and community involvement. In all honesty, the world doesn’t need another uber-successful young woman looking for her own truth, while having a weep-fest on Instagram.
“Oh, Anne,” you say. “Our young women are just looking for their own authenticity.”
I ask you: Do you know that right-wingers just narrowly won the Swedish election on September 14?
The iconic Cartier Panthère is channeled by ambassadors Jisoo of BLACKPINK and actor Ella Balinska in the new Fall 2022 campaign. Her feline fierceness is also on prominent display in Cartier’s New York Fifth Avenue store.
The Cartier New York renovation channels organic parts of the city — its parks — by introducing lush green hues into the space, seen in the furnishings throughout and the carpeting that ascends the grand staircase. “I simply think that green represents vegetation, nature,” designer Laura Gonzalez explained. “Fifth Avenue is very close to Central Park, and I needed to include all these elements in the project to create an oasis, a peaceful beacon in between classicism and the building’s history.”

To have the women leaders of Boucheron celebrate Anja’s bold character on progressive human rights as one that articulates their own brand platform for this iconic high jewelry brand means everything to those of us on the front line of these battles.
It’s good business because every day more women — including wealthy women — understand that we are in the fight of our lives.

Is Billie in danger? We’re on pins and needles with faux fear. Harley Weir [IG] directs the film, with art direction by Lina Kutsovskaya. And, of course, Gucci’s Alessandro Michele is always the conductor of the ensemble.
Over the course of my life, there are perhaps 7-10 dreams that have rocked my world.
I don’t honestly believe that Beyoncé, Tiffany & Co, Alessandro Michele, Gucci, Billie Eilish and Anne Enke are travelling on the same moonbeam — but one never knows.

Beyoncé returns to Tiffany & Co, starring in the global luxury brand’s newest campaign, ‘Lose Yourself in Love,’ which is all about “celebrating individuality, love, and universal connection.” The campaign is “a fiercely elegant homage to the joy of being one’s unapologetic self.”
Beyoncé is “honored to explore even deeper how beautiful our connections are, when we truly celebrate the relationship and importance of love that we have for ourselves as individuals.” This form of self-love — so often ridiculed as being selfish and self-obsessed — is key to forming thriving relationships with other people.
Models Lara Mullen, Lassina Karamoko and Mika Schneider pose in one of Fall 2022’s most delightful campaigns: Hermès. Up on Hermès’ roof, the collections of objects come to life and scarves flutter in the wind, for an airy, carefree afternoon.
