    Eloquii + Walmart, Chanel's Fashion Beach, LVMH Revives Jean Patou

    Welcome to another episode of Pop Fashion! Walmart bought Eloquii, Amazon opened another store filled with random stuff, and Birkenstock opened its first U.S. store. Paris Fashion Week left us scratching our heads about Celine and losing our minds over another Chanel runway set. It's 2018 and we're still selling costumes that objectify Native Americans. Amazon raised its minimum wage! LVMH bought Jean Patou and will resurrect the legendary brand. Oh, and there's a new NAFTA! But it's not NAFTA. Phew! That's a lot. Come hang out!
