Designer deniers to rock these season

A look at this season’s catwalks would suggest this winter’s legwear is loco for the logo — with everyone from Gucci to Chanel adding luxe legwear to their ranges. In fact, fashion search platform Lyst reports searches for logo tights are up 61 per cent since September. But how much would you be prepared to spend on haute hosiery?
Gucci have a pair of tights embellished with sparkling crystals forming the historic GG motif which will set you back an impressive £750. While these would presumably sparkle through the darkest of locked-down days, one could buy the smaller size of Gucci’s GG Marmont quilted leather shoulder bag for the same price — a more functional purchase perhaps, with reduced laddering anxiety.

And yet the tights, first debuted in the spring/summer 2020 collection, are nearly sold out everywhere online in both nude and black. Personally, I would opt for the brand’s interlocking GG jacquard-knit tights for £170 instead — a pricey pair still, but a fashion-forward entry point to the brand for those that might not be able to stretch to a pair of its logo-stamped furry loafers.

Chanel debuted its first logo legwear at its autumn/ winter 2020 show in Paris back in March. Monogrammed with the brand’s iconic interlocking C’s, the £330 tights, which come in black and white iterations and were styled with leather pirate boots at the show, are, like all Chanel stock, only available to buy in a Chanel boutique. But this hasn’t stopped them from becoming a major hit with the fashion set.

Following on from June’s digital-only, gender neutral event, September’s activation will include both digital and physical activations, and the line-up will feature menswear designers like Bianca Saunders and Ahluwalia alongside womenswear designers that traditionally show in September.

Only a select few brands are opting for the traditional format of physical shows, among them Amanda Wakeley, Roksanda and Simone Rocha.

Michelle Obama's 'VOTE' necklace causes sales to rocket

Michelle Obama made headlines yesterday for her Democratic National Convention speech, in which she claimed Donald Trump was the 'wrong president' for the United States.

And for one small jewellery designer in America, the former FLOTUS' appearance has triggered a surge in sales.

Using her sartorial choices to make a statement during her speech, Obama wore a bespoke necklace by Los Angelean jewellery brand BYCHARI, with the word VOTE on it.

The brand is the brainchild of Chari Cuthbert, who founded it in 2012, and specialises in bespoke pieces.

Speaking to CNN, Cuthbert explained that 12 hours after Obama's appearance on Monday night orders for the VOTE necklace, which retails for approximately £300, were already hovering near 2,000.

Ralph Lauren is channelling the look of its iconic polo shirts into sets of face masks, which are expected to launch in the next few months.

The American brand has designed two types of face coverings; a cloth mask and a high filtration mask.

The former comprises anti-microbial treated cotton that helps prevent bacteria from getting inside your mouth, while the latter has a filter attached, which can filter up to 95 per cent of the particles in the air. The filters can also be removed and fitted with new ones.

The best part about the Ralph Lauren masks is that they're offered in a slew of cool materials, and they all feature the brand's iconic polo logo.
