In this November 2024 drop, The Carlyle New York [IG], a Rosewood Hotel, joins Oetker Collection hotels Le Bristol Paris and Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in Antibes, France in launching a custom collaboration with this truly impressive, big-wings brand-potential business Sporty & Rich [IG], founded by Emily Oberg.
In June 2024, Sporty & Rich collaborated with select Rosewood Asaya spas including the Rosewood São Paolo.
In an interview with Glossy in August 2023, Oberg pegged S&R’s revenue at $30 million with a goal of $200 million.
We think it’s much higher, with branding and product synergies that share much in common with SKIMS.
Emily Oberg is not Kim Kardashian, for sure. But she compensates for some of the name-recognition deficit with these rock-solid, prestige hotel alliances that can open new doors and rain money with reorders and fresh collaborations for years.
One can easily argue that Emily Oberg has aligned herself with “old money” hotels — and golf courses in the future — that have many stories to share about the lives of the world’s global elites.

‘Tous les garçons et les filles’ [1962]
Françoise Hardy, a seminal figure in 1960s pop music, captivated audiences with her distinct voice and stylish presence, marking her rise to fame during this transformative decade. Born in Paris in 1944, Hardy emerged in an era where the youth culture was blossoming, creating a fertile ground for her talents to flourish. Her journey to stardom commenced with the release of her debut single ‘Tous les garçons et les filles’ in 1962.
The rising music phenom was a central figure of the Yé-Yé wave, that characterized post-war Europe.
Francoise Hardy Fashion Muse
Hardy had an innate ability to blend contemporary trends with classic elements, often wearing tailored mini skirts, chic trench coats, and perfectly fitted turtlenecks. Her love for monochromatic palettes and understated patterns allowed her natural beauty and grace to shine through, making her a muse for designers like Yves Saint Laurent and Paco Rabanne.

A NYT Darling Deserves His Status
Not for the first time, the New York Times Style shares another major feature on Bottega under Matthieu Blazy. In doing so, they advance the hot topic of craft beyond superb execution and often ‘dusty’ heritage into the world of the creative director role itself.
At Bottega Veneta, Blazy champions his craftspeople for their role in the creative process. His is a rare ego in the world of luxury brands.
The Times introduces us to Barbara Zanin, a 26-year veteran of the brand who became Bottega Veneta’s first director of craft and heritage in July.
