“This marks Skims first-ever foray into the world of winter wear, and partnering with The North Face allowed us to leverage their expertise in this category,” said Kim Kardashian, Skims co-founder and chief creative officer, in a press release. “I’ve spent a lot of time on the slopes, so I was definitely inspired when we were developing this collection and I can’t wait to wear these pieces on my next trip.”
…
The ski-inspired collection includes a range of cropped puffer jackets, skin-tight jumpsuits, layering tops, gloves, headwear, and more. It blends The North Face’s iconic, functional designs with Skims’ body-hugging silhouettes and signature neutrals. The result? Mixed-and-matched layers or striking monochromatic looks, perfect for winter activities — from ice skating and skiing to holiday shopping and hot cocoa dates.
Sizes range from XXS through 3X in most apparel styles, and mule sizes 5 through 11; prices start at $60 for a beanie and go up to $1,200 for a down one-piece.
“At The North Face, we always put innovation and functionality first, the collaboration space is no exception. With Skims, we maintained best-in-class constructions and materials and this collaboration came about from a mutual admiration,” said David Whetstone, North Face director of collaborations and energy, in the press release.

RF29: For some, it’s hard to get excited for winter outerwear: it can be bulky, restrictive, and repetitive as the season drags on. Plus, unlike a chunky sweater or trusty pair of pants, investing in a coat or jacket means committing to something you’ll wear most days of the week.

Legendary movie star Steve McQueen loved the fast track, and always wore the same pair of Red Wing boots. Minnesota’s Red Wing Shoes partnered with his family, in particular granddaughter Molly McQueen, on a new campaign that celebrates the King of Cool by promoting the ideas of legacy clothing and sustainability.
…
The newest “Will your Wings” campaign featuring McQueen starts this week and encourages customers to pass down their beloved Red Wing boots to heirs. The campaign is “our representation of steering clear of fast fashion,” said Red Wing creative director Aaron Seymour-Anderson. “This is intentionally a campaign that is pushing against fast fashion. Our boots last so long that you can hand them down to someone else.”
…
To kick off the idea, the Red Wing boots, Minn.-based manufacturer is partnering on a limited edition of the “Classic Moc” Red Wing boots worn by McQueen in the 1960s and 1970s, including on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
…
The updated leather boots feature a McQueen signature and “278,” his racing number. While the new and somewhat contrarian marketing campaign highlights a well-known player in America’s $95 billion footwear marketplace, the company does not expect it to win any sales awards.
…
…That’s because only about 500 pairs of the $420 McQueen Classic Mocs will be made. They will be sold online and in 20 of Red Wing’s 575 stores, including the flagship store in Red Wing. To emphasize the legacy angle, store clerks will stitch fabric “legacy gifting tags” inside the tongue of each boot. Customers can then write their own name on the tag, along with the name of the person to whom they’ll will the boots.
Mary Van Note and Beth Perro-Jarvis, former Fallon ad executives and founders of the Minneapolis-based brand strategy and research firm Ginger Consulting, said Red Wing’s marketing approach takes a page from the “sneaker drops” that other shoe companies do. They will release only 20 or so pairs of an exclusive design to one or two obscure retail shops.
…
That creates a big buzz, heightens demand and increases the chance a buyer will drop big money for what they see as a luxury item.

In the hustle and bustle of New York City’s fashion scene, no one’s doing high-quality accessories quite like Jennifer Behr.
Based in Brooklyn, Behr’s namesake brand is a go-to for unique hair adornments and jewelry. But long before her designs were spotted on “Gossip Girl” and the Met Gala carpet, she got her start in a Baltimore millinery shop. After graduating from Washington University with a BFA in sculpture and art history, and with her first hatmaking job under her belt, Behr moved to New York City in 1999.
“New York was really the only place to do [fashion],” she told Fashionista’s Brooke Frischer live on The Fashionista Network. (Watch the show here!) That year, she took classes at FIT and interned for celebrity hairstylist and entrepreneur Frédéric Fekkai. “I thought I wanted to do bags, but then I fell in love with [hair accessories],” Behr said. “They’re this really specialized, kind of weird thing, and at that point, there were no luxury [options].”

Behr took the largely untapped market of luxury hair accessories into her own hands and founded her eponymous brand in 2005. Inspired by her sculptural and millinery knowledge, her products began to attract major attention in 2007 when they were first featured on “Gossip Girl.” “They started buying our pieces organically at Bendel’s,” Behr said. “Eventually, my friend Eva Chen made an introduction to Eric [Daman], the costume designer, and we started sending them pieces.”
The television features sparked a resurgence for high-end hair accessories, a market that was largely limited to drugstore lines and children’s products before Behr and Blair [Waldorf] came together. “People started to be excited about wearing [hair] accessories,” she said.

In 2017, the brand launched jewelry, a longtime goal of Behr’s, with necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Nearly two decades since launching, Jennifer Behr employs a team of around 20. Jennifer Lawrence, Sydney Sweeney, Sofia Richie Grainge, Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez and Sabrina Carpenter are among its many celebrity clients.
Behr attributes her success in transforming the accessories space to following up on opportunities when they arise. “You have to identify when [opportunities] come and work hard to execute on them,” Behr said during the interview. “When you get the opportunity, take it and follow through.”
