Fresh off its mostly sold out collaboration with Lanvin earlier this year, Gallery Dept., the artful streetwear brand established by artist Josué Thomas four years ago, announced it plans to cease its fashion line.

Pinning the decision on the problematic nature of the industry, Thomas took to Instagram to make the announcement where he wrote, “We speak to the dissatisfaction with the monotony of the fashion industry polluting not only our minds, but the environment. Through mass media the ideology of consumerism is conflicting with our ethics and involvement in the conventional plane. I detest making disposable product.”

H added, “Because each case is unique and deserves a unique solution, I am choosing to continue the practice of being an artist and withdraw myself from the fashion industry.”

Established four years ago by Thomas In Los Angeles, Gallery Department has garnered a noteworthy amount of success with garments worn by Rihanna, Virgil Abloh and Taz Arnold, to name a few. Stocked at top-tier boutiques such as Ssense, Mr. Porter and Luisaviaroma, the brand’s remaining inventory is also still available while on its gallerydept.com.

Gallery Dept.’s Los Angeles store closed on September 11, 2021. Thomas recently announced on his personal Instagram account that he plans to open Le Bar de music de la Galerie, a café and bar.

Check out Gallery Dept.’s full announcement below.

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.
The purveyor of consistent heat, Casey Cadwallader The purveyor of consistent heat, Casey Cadwallader's #Mugler fall 2023 runway show in Paris, gave what it's supposed to give. Excellent casting featuring #Ziwe, Amber Valetta, Debra Shaw, Omahyra Mota, Paloma Elsesser, Anok Yai, Dominique Jackson, Maria Carla and more! 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."
