Join me for a brisk stroll through the English Countryside while we unpack everything that’s on my mind in the worlds of news, fashion, design, retail, and my latest obsessions.

The week that was in fashion news. A debrief on Saks Global and SSENSE bankruptcy filings, updates on the Chiara Ferragani trial (the influencer scandal of the century), plus my verdict on two starry new covers.

We're joined by veteran brand and retail consultant Marc Yuquico to discuss the brouhaha over where luxury goods are made vs. what the tag says. We've all seen the viral videos claiming over 80% of luxury brands that say Made in Italy or France are actually Made in China. It's a rumour that's spread rapidly. And sparked an important debate over the issues of labor practices, ethical transparency, and the rising costs of luxury goods.

Well it's finally official. The Prada Group has acquired Versace from Capri Holdings. This week we investigate the terms of the deal, the shady character who wanted to make Versace less glitzy more preppy (as if!) and how Donatella feels about all of these changes. Plus, we look at more designer musical chairs, dog accessorising, Demna's next chapter, and dressing for Coachella. Thanks for stopping by. Follow along on TikTok for the latest scoop.

And we're back for another live show, taking your questions and updating you on the top three fashion news stories of the week. That'd be: Zac Posen's First Gap Collection, Pink Tariffs and how Trump's tariff war will affect the fashion industry, plus the ongoing Department Store Drama at Hudson's Bay Company / Saks / Neiman Marcus. Expect a few tangents along the way, from Tom Ford's first move post-Gucci to archival Prada escapades.

Be sure to follow along on TikTok @NEWSFASH for more.

Talk about a power move: Kim Kardashian's brand new deal with Nike is unprecedented and has the potential to really move the needle for both behemoths. We dig into the nitty gritty of what it entails, while looking at the activewear space as a whole. And while I take your questions, I also have a very important one for you. What do you wear to move? From workouts to plane rides to grocery runs, what comfy/stretchy/cozy labels are getting it right (or wrong) right now? I certainly have strong opinions on the matter. Speaking of close knit relationships, we also look at Burberry's latest love affair.

As a fashion, and culture writer, I've contributed to VOGUE, VOGUE SCANDINAVIA, The Financial Times, CBC, NPR, Toronto Star, Monocle, and Cultured, among others. 

This week, we look at Hermès Q4 sales reports, which showed impressive growth in a difficult climate for most. Plus, in a sea of lemming-like influencers eager to unbox their latest luxury acquisition, one lady stands out to me right now. Her name is Nadine Kasuga (@nkasuga89 on TikTok) and she's the real deal. From her three perches in Tokyo, London, and New York, this exceedingly chic collector actually educates her viewers on her prolific Hermès collection which spans three decades. It's giving connoisseur vs. clout chaser.

Speaking of clout chasing, we also look at the annual reports of Gucci and Moncler. I kid, but not really. Moncler is not for me but many love it clearly. And Gucci sadly is not for anyone at the moment besides influencers and celebrity ambassadors who are being paid handsomely. We discuss how they could change that and more. Enjoy my darlings.

On this Breaking NEWSFASH, we break down what's happening at Gucci. From Sabato de Sarno abruptly exiting the house, to the cultural climate that led to one of fashion's biggest brands losing its way.

We also discuss what Taylor Swift should wear to the Super Bowl and other pressing fashion topics of the week.

This episode was recorded live and I am somehow sick again/still sick? Excuse the sniffles. Achuuu.

I'm diving into the ongoing sea of menswear in Milan and Paris to select some standouts that yes, I'd wear. From Pharrell's latest at Louis Vuitton to Egonlab, an emerging French label we're loving right now. We're also talking about what's happening at Dior, going backstage at Prada, delving into the politics of LVMH dressing Ivanka Trump, and discussing if reporting on the new-again First Lady's historical fashion moments is inappropriate? Is covering it, celebrating it? Is ignoring it petty and biased?

We're all trying to navigate these increasingly choppy waters while keeping our heads held high, and our hats tilted to as not to obscure half our face. Or maybe that's just me?

Thanks for all the great questions. I appreciate it. I miss my dog.

School's out for Proenza Schouler's Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez. The lauded New York designers , who have been toiling away at their label for the past twenty four years (to varying degrees of success) are departing. And it looks like they are most likely headed to Loewe. Let's talk about how this impact the luxury landscape: from all but confirming JW Anderson is moving on up to Dior, to where might current designer Maria Grazia go? Plus, some life, love, and career advice thrown in for good measure. You asked! Love doing these live q&a shows, I gotta say. Thanks to all who joined and chimed in.

An award-winning Canadian design icon with a career spanning over 50 years, it's a true honour to know her, love her, and continually learn from her wise words when it comes to all things fashion, career, creative process, and sticking to your guns. We loved taking your thoughtful questions and hope you can make sense of our mother/daughter banter. Happy hols!

Two of the biggest clothing retailers are in the news this week: Gap's up and Lululemon's down, but it's not what you think. Plus, are boat shoes cool again? And what about those other preppy footwear staples people wear to look posh? (What does posh even mean?)

And my own hot takes the plight of the female designer in 2024.
