The world’s top models wearing H&M’s off-duty casual femininity from designer Eliana Masgalos between shows includes Alex Consani,Awar Odhiang, Diane Chu, Jacqui Hooper, Maty Fall, Mariacarla Boscono, Mona Tougaard, Paloma Elsesser, Sora Choi and Vittoria Ceretti. Some models had their dollie sidekicks riding shotgun.
This campaign is part of H&M’s larger strategy around their participation in global fashion events. The brand becomes a global fashion voice — not by competing with their own runway show — but by becoming part of everyone’s show in a very democratic way.
Frankly, this strategy appeals to the models, who continue to seek greater direct influence in fashion week action and events. Translated, they want to have roles beyond being a mannequin. The best example of this desire — and ability — was model Awar Odhiang’s spontaneous ‘hostess with the mostess’ takeover of the closing of Matthieu Blazy’s fabulous Chanel debut.
Il Sole24Ore - HTSI Italia, launched in 2014 as a partnership between the Financial Times and Il Sole24Ore with Nicoletta Polla-Mattiot as editor-in-chief has never been featured on Anne of Carversville.

On the subject of Fendi, with Silvia Venturini Fendi being named honorary president and allowing a new creative director to take the reins of the Fendi luxury brand, AOC assumes that Maria Grazia Chiuri will step into the spotlight as the new creative head of women’s and probably men’s as well.
I’ve defended the Anderson decision when other women fashion writers were ripping into LVMH — going so far out on the limb as to say on WaPo: “Calm down. She’s going to Fendi. LVMH is not so stupid as to throw Chiuri to the curb, when some VIP women clients may not even like the new Dior.”
Jonathan Anderson taps Dior’s three newest ambassadors: Mia Goth, Greta Lee and Mikey Madison for the reveal on Monday of the new Lady Dior handbag campaign.
Photographer David Sims [IG] shot the campaign at the Pavillon de Musique de la Comtesse du Barry, the reception space in Louveciennes built for Madame du Barry, the official mistress of King Louis XV. There’s definitely a sense of continuity between Anderson’s debut men’s show in June and this campaign for a truly iconic Lady Dior handbag.

Actor and businesswoman Naomi Watts covers the October 2025 issue of Vogue Greece [IG] in advance of the premier of ‘All’s Fair’. The Hulu legal drama series has Watts playing Liberty Ronson, in the ensemble cast of an all-female law firm with a practice centered on high-stakes divorce cases.
Other members of this phenom ballbreakers cast include Glenn Close, Niecy Nash, Sarah Paulson, Teyana Taylor and — wait for it — Kim Kardashian. Good goddess; as if Kardashian doesn’t have enough to do.
No wonder Disney had to settle with Jimmy Kimmel, with Hulu subscriptions flying cancelled in their faces right before this debut.

Le Smoking’s Embrace by Young Women
While Yves Saint Laurent was not the first designer to put women in a male-identified suit, Le Smoking was the first tuxedo specifically designed for women. In fact, the Parisian Yves Saint Laurent maison was financially prosperous in 1966, even though the initial Le Smoking dive into androgyny was a commercial flop. Exactly one suit was sold.
W Magazine shares ‘For the Love of Fashion: Steven Meisel Shoots Fall’s Most Striking Looks’, zeroing in on fashion’s eccentric side. British model Jacqui Hooper and Sweden’s Signe Michaelsson are styled by Karl Templer in unconventional, sometimes quirky luxury fashion looks.
