December 25, 2021. 1 Comment

Simply put, New York-born sneaker collector and historian Jasmine “Jixie” Gonzalez knows sneakers! When we asked for her top five list, she came through as promised and them some in the form of three lists, one for Air Jordan, Nike and “other brands.” Thanks to her, SIA Collective is now on our radar (“Sells out every sneaker PeriodT. The Sia Skate Vilture concepts: Newport, 808, Bride of Chucky, Doom, all were notable.”)

More than just a sneaker lover, native New Yorker Gonzalez along with Yaya Mazurkevich Nuñez are co-founders of InHerSoles Collective, a community-based organization providing a space to celebrate women in sneaker culture while also documenting their contributions.

Rather than include all 17 of Gonzalez’s picks, we chose the top two for each category. In no particular order, check them out below. To shine a light on additional picks we designated her No. 3 picks for each category as her honorable mentions: Nike Dunk x Off-White: The 50, Air Jordan x Off-White Retro 2 Low and Adidas Campus 80s: South Park Towelie.

Air Jordan Retro 1: Bred Patent
Air Jordan x A Ma Maniére: Retro 3: Raised by Women
Nike x Comme des Garçons: Air Foamposite
Nike Dunk High: Strawberry Cough
New Balance x Salahe Bembury 2002R: Peace Be The Journey 
Adidas x Bad Bunny Forum Low: Easter Egg

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."
