The RXCH Designer Rainey Washington Dies At Age 30 From Cancer

Very sad news we are just now hearing of The Rxch designer Rainey Washington who passed away from breast cancer on September 9, 2021, at the far too young age of 30. We interviewed Washington in the early days of the pandemic after we spotted Leah McSweeney in her Lil Kim mugshot dress during her debut season of the “Real Housewives of New York.” Even in the midst of a very difficult and uncertain period, Rainey clearly was so fun and bright and full of hope.

Inspired by her love of streetwear, Rainey founded The Rxch line in 2011 with a goal of creating a line with a sexier, night-time edge. When we asked her her motivations for entering the fashion space, she told us, “I’ve always known since I was a little girl I wanted to own a fashion brand. I wanted to be like Kimora Lee Simmons, model turned fashion brand mogul.”

Alejandro Collection designer Alejandro Peraza, who kindly provided us with the images in this post, was a good friend of Washington and described her as a “go getter hustler and people inspirer.” She added, “She had a very razor sharp eye for aesthetics. She inspired me to push my brand more and to believe I myself. I’ll never forget her.”

We extend our condolences to her family, friends and all the people she touched, especially her father who was thrilled enough by our interview to leave a comment. He wrote, “Proud Dad in Nigeria. Expecting her brand to explode in Nigeria market real soon. All blessings gurl! Your extended families, in Nigeria are real proud of your success and wishing you a greater heights. Kisses!”

A new #Gucci luggage campaign under Sabato de Sarn A new #Gucci luggage campaign under Sabato de Sarno's creative direction starring Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny, was unveiled this weekend.

To give context to the campaign, a portion of the press release reads,"Shot in an airport, the meeting place where journeys begin, the campaign explores the intimacy of traveling together through the creative lens of Anthony Seklaoui. Stills capture the fleeting spirit of Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny's airport stroll, redefining the Jet Set glamour of the 1990s."

Does this campaign count as a relationship hard launch?

Sarah Burton presented her last collection as Alex Sarah Burton presented her last collection as Alexander McQueen's creative director during Paris Fashion Week this Saturday. Naomi campbell closed the show in a stunning silver dress!

Burton's tenure as creative director for Alexander McQueen has  been remarkable, spanning an impressive 26 years. Her ability to maintain the brand's distinctive blend of beauty and edge is noteworthy.

Burton became creative director in  2010 after the tragic loss of Lee Alexander McQueen. As the only female creative director in Kering's fashion portfolio, her contributions have been significant, and her departure, in our opinion leaves a big gap in a house with a very deep and unique brand dna. 

Any thoughts on who will be the next McQueen creative director?
