Renewed: Can Kamala Harris Unite Karlie Kloss and Taylor Swift For America's Future

Renewed: Can Kamala Harris Unite Karlie Kloss and Taylor Swift For America's Future

Scanning all of Apple News for Karlie Kloss news just now, 5 percent of the coverage included Karlie Kloss celebrating her baby son Elijah’s first birthday in July [IG] and her major hire of Michiel Steur for Bedford.

Once Besties: Karlie Kloss and Taylor Swift

The remaining 95 percent of Apple News coverage of Karlie Kloss is devoted to her recent positive commentary on Taylor Swift. No lie!

Karlie is suddenly acknowledging her Swiftie ties. What does this mean? Call Anne clueless.

But I do have a brainstorm idea for getting this duo together — a call to collective action by 2024 presidential candidate and current Vice President Kamala Harris. A call for protecting America’s suddenly fragile democracy.

Ferragamo FW 2024 Campaign Brews Thoughts on Italian Renaissance & Kamala Harris' Presidential Run

Ferragamo FW 2024 Campaign Brews Thoughts on Italian Renaissance &  Kamala Harris' Presidential Run

The rise of the Medici family 1400 years after the founding of Florence is a pivotal chapter in world history, marking a period of extraordinary cultural and political transformation.

The Italian Renaissance Is Relevant

These historical facts are on Anne’s mind because of the timeliness of the Italian Renaissance and its connections to several Italian houses like Brunello Cucianelli and Loro Piana. I don’t think of Ferragamo as a philosophical brand, in the way that Brunello Cucianelli is deeply devoted to the humanist philosophy. But they could be.

In the pursuit of accuracy, there’s no argument to be made that Loro Piana is seeped in philosophy either. However, one weekend in June, AOC’s post on Bella Hadid’s Orabella launch suffered a collision with an Apple News post titled ‘Human Consciousness Is an Illusion’.

Sha’Carri Richardson Wins Silver Medal in Paris, Fronts Vogue US August Olympics Issue

Photographer Luis Alberto Rodriguez [IG] delivers richly well-done images of Olympic runner Sha’Carri Richardson in a sporting fashion story for the Vogue August’s 2024 digital issue. Julia Sarr-Jamois styles the track star inn Ralph Lauren Collection for the cover and slinky white dress, Bode tank top and shorts, and Nike Team USA Olympic leotard and bikers. / Hair by Key Rentz; makeup by Sally Branka; no credit for Richardson’s outstanding talons.

Richardson won her first Olympic medal today, after suffering the sad suspension for the track star at the Tokyo Games in 2021.

Today was a far happier event for Sha’Carri Richardson, when she won silver in Paris. Was silver — not gold — a surprise? Yes. And her gold medal loss was 1/4 of a second to Julien Alfred of Saint Lucia.

Tory Burch FW 2024 Campaign, Lensed in Lisbon by Jamie Hawkesworth

Tory Burch FW 2024 Campaign, Lensed in Lisbon by Jamie Hawkesworth

‘Experimental’ is not a word used over the last 20 years to describe designer Tory Burch [IG]. When she presented her Fall 2024 collection at the New York Public Library last February, a new adjective arose to describe Burch — one we love. The word was ‘daring’.

Vogue Runway summed up the Fall 2024 Tory Burch collection, writing: “Let’s just say she’s come a long way from the people-pleasing crystal embellished tunics and Reva flats that were her earliest successes.”

The Fall 2024 campaign photographed by Jamie Hawkesworth [IG] in Lisbon, Portugal plays with light and quiet joy. It captures Tory Burch’s new word — which is good — because fashion hammers the same words to death. We need some new words — in this case ‘sublime’.

Sporty & Rich x adidas Originals  Capsule Pops into Le Bristol Paris with Malika el Maslouhi

The Sporty & Rich brand has a habit of hanging out in the best hotels. Which is why the current Sporty & Rich x adidas Originals capsule collection popped into Le Bristol in Paris’ 8th arrondissement last week in time for the Paris Olympics.

Model Malika el Maslouhi models the sporting capsule in digital media and in-store materials.

Marketing and branding has tapped every aspect of food sourcing, including a flour mill and a chocolate factory in the hotel basement. This is important to know, when a Sporty & Rich x adidas Originals miche du pain arrives on one’s table in the relaxed brasserie. Or the famous Le Bristol door key for your room? Emily Oberg has left her mark there, too.

Naomi Watts' Stripes Beauty Snags Platinum-Level Investor L Catterton

Naomi Watts' Stripes Beauty Snags Platinum-Level Investor L Catterton

AOC completely missed the June announcement that L Catterton is partnering with actor Naomi Watts to acquire her menopause-care brand Stripes Beauty.

The American multinational private equity firm closely partnered with LVMH and Groupe Arnault is putting some expertise power behind the venture. Debra Perelman, the former Revlon CEO, is executive chair of Stripes Beauty and Cara Kamenev, a former L'Oréal executive, is president.

This nation is very messed up over the expression of a healthy female sexuality and sensual joy as a form of wellness. France and most of Europe are way ahead of America in supporting a positive sexuality at any age.

I just had a rush of my own joy reading that Naomi Watts is now in the hands of a platinum-level, business development team in the L Catterton stable. Talk about a safe harbor for Stripes Beauty. It’s a fabulous piece of news that will age well for all parties!! ~ Anne
