Dior’s Next Show Is Headed to Mumbai’s ‘Gateway of India’ on March 30
Under the creative direction of Maria Grazia Chiuri, Dior is headed to Mumbai to present the brand’s Pre-fall 2023 collection on March 30, at the historical monument, Gateway of India. This is the first time a European luxury megabrand is orchestrating a major standalone show in the country. The collection will be available in stores from late April and features silk dresses, evening coats and sari-inspired skirts referencing traditional Indian silhouettes, some embellished with intricate embroidery. The showcase is also meant to be a homage to Dior’s longstanding creative partnership with Chanakya, a Mumbai-based atelier and craftsmanship school for women led by designer Karishma Swali.
Coach Celebrates The Tabby Bag In Multimedia Campaign Starring Lil Nas X, Koki, Cami Mendes And Wu JinYan
The Tabby bag has been a perpetual bestseller for Coach, making it relatively easy for the brand to utilise the bag’s cultural standing for its latest spring campaign, ‘In My Tabby’. As a play on the popular ‘What’s in my bag’ YouTube video format, Coach tapped into an exciting group of ambassadors, including Lil Nas X, Camila Mendes, Koki and Wu JinYan. This is the most recent iteration of Coach’s Courage to Be Real campaign launched last fall.

Law Roach Made His Debut As A Model A Day After Announcing His Retirement
After announcing his retirement from celebrity styling on Instagram, Law Roach clarified what he precisely meant by his statement after he debuted as a model at the Boss Fall/Winter 2023 runway show. He’s not entirely done with the fashion world but made the decision to shift from working behind the camera to being in front of it. The now-former celeb stylist joined notable names like Pamela Anderson, Naomi Campbell, and DJ Khaled as they took on a windy, water-soaked runway in tailored suits at the Herald Plaza in Miami. Following this, Roach sat down for an interview with editor Lindsay Peoples, and elaborated on the many instances of power play and misunderstandings in the industry that led him to realise how unhappy he was in his role as a celebrity stylist.
