London Label Asai Slows Down And Finds Beauty In Chaos With Spring 2018

September 18, 2017. 3 Comments

Among the four designers shown on Fashion East’s group runway during London Fashion week, once again London designer A Sai Ta of Asai’s presentation popped out. Anchored on textured and fringe silk fabrics as well as sculpted wovens and paired with jewelry offerings from Joanne T., the collection (highlighted by an extremely fun pair of open toe, over-the-knee porcelain dragon boots), just clicked and felt fresh and influential.

In an interview with Dazed, the London-based designer, whose resume includes working with Kanye West on Yeezy Season 2, said the collection was themed on slowing down and taking in the scenery. “We live in such a fast-paced, easily-distracted, materialistic world, that we pay very little attention to the actual materiality of the things we own, explained Asai. “So this season is about giving attention to the materiality of the everyday garments. Elevated street pieces in fabrications that alter the forms. Luxury is the ability to wear something fucked up ’cos you can afford to look this way. Showing your fragility is the confidence. Less is less and more is definitely more! [It’s about] finding the calm in the chaos!”

From the intricate jewelry collaboration with designer Joanne T. to intricate silks and fringes, Asai’s spring 2018 requires a closer look to discover artful details and a diverse cast of models that include diversity of skin tone but also height.

Prior collection from Asai can be viewed on asaita.co.uk.

In sad news, Kering hasn't realized its mistake an In sad news, Kering hasn't realized its mistake and brought back Alessandro Michele (kidding but not really). Instead it's announced the appointment of Sabato De Sarno as Gucci creative director. De Sarno will present his debut runway collection at Milan Women’s Fashion Week in September 2023.

The 39-year-old Sabato De Sarno was raised in Naples, Italy. He began his career at Prada in 2005, moving to Dolce & Gabbana, before joining Valentino in 2009, where he eventually was appointed fashion director of men’s and women’s collections.

De Sarno's resume is no joke, so we look forward to seeing what he brings to the table and will do our best to not hold it against him that he replaced Michele. That's on Kering.
French luxury conglomerate LVMH announced earnings French luxury conglomerate LVMH announced earnings yesterday and noted that Fenty Beauty doubled its revenue in 2022 versus the prior year. In an earnings release the company attribued the growth to "expansion of its distribution network and the success of its launches." 

First launched with LVMH's beauty brand incubator Kendo in 2017, Fenty's growth over the past several years has largely been fueled by global expansion. 

Comnenting on Fenty Beauty's first forray into Asia, CEO Rihanna in 2019 stated on social media, "When I launched @fentybeauty in 2017, it was important to me to make sure it was available globally so everyone had access to it. We are continuing to expand our Fenty Beauty family to Hong Kong, Macau, Seoul and Jeju in September!”

While LVMH didn't provide 2022 Fenty Beauty revenue figures, it announced the beauty brand brought in $573M in revenue in 2018. Forbes in 2021 valued the entire operation as worth $2.8 billion, of which 50% belongs to Rihanna.

Badass energy, bold pieces in leather, lace and some denim.

We think Thierry Mugler would be pleased✨
Tiktok sensation Terri Joe has landed a feature wi Tiktok sensation Terri Joe has landed a feature with Paper magazine with an editorial shot by Oscar Ouk. 

Assuming the character of a conservative Christian southern belle, Terri Joe's live exchanges attract thousands of viewers and have lead to exchanges with Doja Cat, Madonna and Hunter Schafer. 

In real life, Terri Joe is Kelon, a 27-year-old based in Houston (who is okay with any pronoun). According to Paper, Kelon worked in tech before becoming a fulltime content creator with more than a million followers on his main account @_psyiconic.

When asked about the origins of Terri Joe (who is white), Kelon explained, "It actually didn’t start off with Terri, but with Jeorgia Peach. It started with that background and with me talking to random people and saying the most random things. And then one day I decided it would be funny to just throw on a grandma costume that I had and a raggedy wig and just go on Live. I think I was loosely basing it off of a character from my favorite TV show True Blood."
