4 New Things Fashion People Are Talking About This Week
If it seems like fashion news is moving at a mile a minute, well, you're not alone. Despite our numerous social media feeds and perpetual press releases, it can be hard to keep up with the latest industry news, even as full-time editors, which is why we're boiling it down to just the basics. Here are the four new things fashion people are talking about right now…
Dynamic Duo
Nordstrom and Manolo Blahnik recently hosted a posh lunch at The Maybourne Beverly Hills to commemorate Nordstrom's 125th anniversary and the exclusive Manolo Blahnik capsule. Cohosted by Manolo Blahnik CEO Kristina Blahnik and Nordstrom Fashion Director Linda Cui Zhang, the event drew a well-heeled crowd (literally), including Chriselle Lim, Hillary Kerr, Courtney Trop, Meeka Hossain, and others.

Ladies Who Lunch
Movado ambassador Julianne Moore recently joined the brand's president, Margot Grinberg, and a handful of well-dressed editors and influencers for an exceptionally chic lunch in NYC to celebrate Movado's newest women's watches. The three just-launched collections—Museum Bangle, Heritage 1917, and Museum Velura—are all inspired by pieces from Movado's archives (which date back to 1881, if you didn't know).
Hollywood Night
While the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures is no stranger to rolling out red carpets to host events, Clarins recently swapped crimson for bright orange in honor of its newest product, Extra-Firming Energy. Held at the museum, the brand's launch party attracted Nara Smith, Lucky Blue Smith, Candice Swanepoel, Samara Weaving, Malin Akerman, Brooks Nader, and many others. Plus, none other than Maroon 5 put on a special performance for guests.
Flagship Fashion
Calvin Klein has just opened a new flagship store in New York City. It's located in SoHo at 530 Broadway, and the boutique spans over 3000 square feet. With poured-concrete floors, exposed wood beams, and oversize columns, the design is meant to mimic NYC's classic loft apartments. In addition to a selection of men's and women's jeans, underwear, clothes, and accessories, the store will sell a limited-edition capsule collection featuring custom Calvin Klein SoHo branding. See you there!
