This weekend in fashion had some moments that enraptured us. First up, Harlem’s Fashion Row and ICON360 have announced the launch of the 360 Fashion Scholarship in partnership with Nordstrom. The scholarship is open to HBCU sophomores or juniors interested in a career in fashion. This empowering opportunity is Brandice Daniels’ newest scholarship dedicated to addressing the disparities that hinder diverse talent from thriving.
Next, Pharrell Williams has teased a collaboration between Louis Vuitton and Timberland. The classic boot is getting an upgrade with a monogram print on the tongue of the shoe. Would you consider this a “quiet luxury” piece? It’s a great crossover between streetwear and luxury.
Jerry Lorenzo has revealed Fear Of God’s Fall/Winter 2024 menswear collection. The signature monochrome color palette tied the collection together beautifully. Pieces like oversized trousers, buttery leather jackets, and fur coats were part of the collection.
Sotheby’s and the CFDA have launched the “Defining American Style” auction curated by Thom Browne. The selection is made of pieces that will benefit the CFDA Foundation. The auction is set to run on January 23 a few weeks before New York Fashion Week.
Lastly, Chanel has announced its Cruise 2025 runway show location: Marseille, France. The collection will be shown on May 2, and it will follow the French fashion house’s signature designs.
