On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week.

This week, we take a look at the consolidation of Teen Vogue under Vogue, including the laying off of all its politics writers. We also talk about the ongoing battle between Shein and French authorities over its newly opened store in Paris and the blocking of Shein’s website in France. Lastly, we discuss the departure of Olivier Rousteing from Balmain after he spent 14 years as its creative director.

Later in the episode, Danny is joined by Sarah Davis, co-founder and president of the luxury fashion resale company Fashionphile.

The break-in at the Louvre last month was a major scandal for France and led to tens of millions of dollars worth of jewelry going missing. While arrests have been made, the jewelry has yet to be recovered.

With millions of dollars worth of merchandise on Fashionphile’s shelves, Davis is familiar with both the intense security measures required to keep valuable products safe and the gut-punch feeling when merchandise goes missing. Below are a few highlights from the conversation with Davis about how Fashionphile and other luxury companies keep their stores safe.

On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week.

This week, we talk about the closure of Gen-Z-favorite underwear brand Parade, six years after its founding. We also talk about Lululemon becoming the latest fashion brand to partner with the NFL. And we discuss layoffs at big companies like Amazon and what they mean for American consumers' dim outlook on the economy.

In the second half of the episode (23:30), we’re joined by Glossy editor-in-chief Jill Manoff to discuss the new rules of the denim market.

Denim is a perennially popular category, and there’s more diversity and competition in denim than ever. We talk about the trends that are dominant and the ways the denim customer is changing, plus we group together some of the current top brands to provide a better sense of how the sector is evolving.

On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week.

This week, we discuss Grace Wales Bonner taking over as the creative director of menswear at Hermés. It’s a job that Wales Bonner has previously referred to as a dream job, and it makes her the first black woman to lead a major European luxury brand.

We also discuss Dsquared2's restructuring and layoffs amid its legal battle with licensing company Staff International. And we break down Saks Fifth Avenue’s recent earnings report, which shows the retailer continuing to struggle after its billion-dollar merger with Neiman Marcus.

Later in the episode, Zofia is joined by our editor-in-chief, Jill Manoff, and Glossy’s research director, Li Lu, to discuss holiday retail strategies. The conversation draws from our annual Glossy+ Holiday Research Report, released earlier this month.

One of the main takeaways from the report: Neither marketers nor brands have high hopes for this holiday season.

“I would say a lot of marketers have very conservative expectations for holiday revenue,” Li Lu said. “About 56% of them said they don't expect increases to be more than 10%. Within that 56%, 27% of them just said, flat out, that they don't expect any change. So it's very conservative this year for the most part.”

The discussion also covers price increases for the holiday season due to tariffs, discounting strategies heading into the holidays, and the role of digital marketplaces like Amazon and traditional department stores like Macy’s this holiday shopping season.

On this week’s episode, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and international fashion reporter Zofia Zwieglinska unpack the week’s biggest fashion headlines. They start with the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Show, which returned to New York with a more inclusive casting lineup that featured WNBA star Angel Reese, plus-size and trans models, and a visibly pregnant Jasmine Tookes. With performances from Missy Elliott and Karol G, the show aimed to balance its signature spectacle with a renewed focus on diversity and empowerment. Danny and Zofia debate whether this marks a genuine evolution for the lingerie giant or a one-and-done activation to win back cultural relevance.

The pair then discusses Gucci’s €119 million fine from E.U. regulators for restricting retailers’ ability to set prices, part of a larger €157 million antitrust ruling also affecting Chloé and Loewe. The case highlights how luxury brands’ tight control over distribution is clashing with European competition law, a precedent that could loosen pricing control across the sector. They also cover Armani’s leadership transition following Giorgio Armani’s passing last month, with longtime executive Giuseppe Marsocci stepping in as CEO and partner Pantaleo Dell’Orco taking over as chairman. The succession marks a historic moment for what was one of fashion’s last founder-led houses as it considers a partial sale to outside investors.

In the second half of the episode (22:00), editor-in-chief Jill Manoff speaks with Ty Haney, founder of Outdoor Voices, about her much-anticipated return to the brand, which she calls its “chapter two.” Haney explains how her equestrian and hiking capsules reflect a return to OV’s joyful, recreation-first roots, and how her tech startup, TYB, is powering a new community-driven brand loyalty model. She shares brand lessons from the DTC era, the reasons she’s leaning into bolder design and color, and her plans to connect her three ventures — Outdoor Voices, TYB and the energy drink brand Joggy — to create a lifestyle ecosystem built on movement and optimism.

On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi, international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska and editor-in-chief Jill Manoff break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week.

This week, we’re taking a look at the skyrocketing price of gold, the effect it has on jewelry brands and what it indicates about the health of the global economy. We also discuss an investigation into the labor practices of the Italian luxury brand Tod’s, which is the latest of several luxury brands to come under official scrutiny for the conditions in its workshops.

And in the second half of the episode, we discuss the slate of big debuts at this season’s Fashion Month. Across New York, London, Milan and Paris Fashion Weeks, over a dozen brands debuted collections from new creative directors.

We focus on six big debuts: Demna at Gucci, Matthieu Blazy at Chanel, Pierpaolo Piccioli at Balenciaga, Louise Trotter at Bottega Veneta, Jonathan Anderson at Dior, and Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez at Loewe. For each one, we give them a grade based on the clothes, the spectacle of the show, the consistency with the brand and its ethos, the reception, and the expected business impact on the brand as a whole.

At the end of the episode, we tally up all our scores and see which debuts had the biggest impact and which ones left something to be desired.

On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi, editor-in-chief Jill Manoff and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week.

This week, we’re starting with a look back at Milan Fashion Week. Danny and Zofia break down a few of the notable shows, including a big debut from Dario Vitale as the new creative director of Versace. Vitale is the first designer for the brand who is not a member of the Versace family, but his debut collection was well received.

And in the same week, the acquisition of Versace by Prada Group was approved by E.U. regulators.

Giorgio Armani’s show was a fitting tribute to the recently deceased designer who had a profound impact on Italian fashion. And the Brunello Cucinelli show was outshone by allegations from a short seller that the brand has been operating in violation of E.U. sanctions in Russia. Cucinelli has denied the claims.

In the second half of the episode (20:00), in light of Paris Fashion Week, we discuss two of the biggest luxury companies in the world. LVMH and Hermès, both French and both presenting this season in Paris, have traded the top spot for the most valuable luxury company in the world several times this year.

We break down the strengths of each company. For Hermès, its laser focus on a single brand and high-value customer; for LVMH, its diversified portfolio and broader appeal. Both approaches have their upsides and their challenges, depending on market conditions.

And both companies also face competition from independent brands. We also hear from Luca Solca, senior analyst at Bernstein covering luxury goods, who weighs in on the challenges that megabrands like LVMH and Hermès face.

On this special Milan Fashion Week edition of the Glossy Podcast, international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska is joined by editor-in-chief Jill Manoff and Betches’s new style director Madeline Galassi to break down the shows, shifts and standout debuts shaping the season.

The episode kicks off with a discussion on NikeSkims, the buzzy new partnership dropping this week. From there, the hosts recap London Fashion Week highlights, including Burberry’s youthful pivot under Daniel Lee and Simone Rocha’s viral-ready mix of toughness and tulle. They also dig into how new BFC head Laura Weir is boosting visibility and cutting designer fees.

In Milan, Diesel and Fendi set the tone early, with Glenn Martens staging an interactive citywide scavenger hunt and Fendi leaning into color over logos. Prada’s architectural silhouettes and Jill Sander’s tailoring kept the momentum going. But at the center of the week is Gucci: Demna’s fast-tracked debut came with a film premiere featuring Edward Norton, Demi Moore and Kiki Palmer, plus an immediate product drop in select boutiques.

Zofia and Jill debate whether the pared-back collection signals stability or a transition phase, while luxury analyst Luca Solca weighs in on the stakes for both Gucci and parent company Kering. With Bottega Veneta and Versace still to show, Milan is proving to be the season’s biggest stage for reinvention.

On this special London Fashion Week edition of the Glossy Podcast, international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska is joined by editor-in-chief Jill Manoff to break down the shows, shifts and standout moments shaping the season.

London has been particularly charged this week, with President Trump’s visit, Parliament debating fashion’s cultural and economic value, and new BFC head Laura Weir waiving designer fees and boosting international visibility.

The London Fashion Week schedule reflects the mix of pressures and possibilities: More fast-fashion names like Zara joined the calendar, bringing visibility but also sustainability concerns. The stalwarts are still showing, including JW Anderson, Simone Rocha and Erdem, which are holding strong among a tough macro environment. And a wave of NEWGEN designers, such as Jenn Lee, The Ouze and Ewusie, are bringing fresh energy. NEWGEN is the British Fashion Council’s talent support scheme that gives emerging designers financial backing, mentoring and a platform to show at London Fashion Week.

Zofia also shares highlights to come this week in Glossy's coverage, including what is going on at Rixo, Edeline Lee and Patrick McDowell.

But at the center of it all is Burberry. Zofia and Jill trace the brand’s turbulent recent history — from executive and creative director shifts to pricing resets — and assess Joshua Schulman’s “Burberry Forward” strategy (9:00).

Luxury analyst Luca Solca from brokerage firm Bernstein joins the episode to weigh in on Burberry’s turnaround, stressing the importance of heritage, consistent execution and the brand’s ongoing challenge in accessories. We discuss how Burberry's new campaigns — like "Festival Season," featuring Liam Gallagher, and "Back to the City," shot on a red London bus — are reframing the brand. We also talk about how wholesale partners are responding to the brand's Fall 2025 collection and what’s next for Burberry, in both the U.K. and the U.S.

On this special New York Fashion Week edition of the Glossy Podcast, we’re looking back at some of the shows, trends and interesting moments that arose from this season on the runway.

Senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi is joined by editor-in-chief Jill Manoff and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska to discuss what they saw over the course of the week. Danny and Jill were on the ground attending shows, while Zofia was reporting from the U.K.

In our preview episode last week, we discussed the move toward smaller, more intimate shows that were happening this NYFW, and that proved to be the case. Many brands held intimate presentations, often in their own stores or leveraging unique formats, like dinners, brunches and presentations, in locations including coffee shops.

We also talk about some of the trends we saw on the runway, including the lack of color in many of the collections. And we discuss the continued prevalence of ouside-the-box sponsorships like Christian Siriano’s collaboration with the drink brand Capri Sun.

And lastly, we talk about which shows were the most memorable, from Zankov’s welcome splashes of color to Off-White’s use of New York Liberty mascot Ellie the Elephant on the runway.

For the latest NYFW designer episode, international fashion reporter Zofia Zwieglinska sat down with Hillary Taymour, founder and creative director of Collina Strada, to discuss her Spring-Summer 2026 collection. The collection's show featured a striking visual: Every colorful look was mirrored by a black duplicate, like a “shadow” that followed each model down the runway. The doubled styling underscored how progress, in fashion and in politics, is never free from the weight of what came before.

The collection arrived as the U.S. navigates heightened scrutiny abroad following Donald Trump’s return to office in January 2025. With sweeping tariffs and immigration crackdowns, America’s cultural exports now carry a dual narrative: vibrant and innovative on the surface, but shadowed by policies that shape international perception. Collina Strada’s runway mirrored the tension, with the more colorful brand expression tempered by stark reminders of consequence.

But Taymour is expanding the Collina Strada universe beyond the runway. 

At NYFW, she announced a new partnership with OnlyFans, debuting as a creator on the platform while introducing a limited-edition OnlyFans x Collina Strada “Level Up” T-shirt. Through her channel, she’ll give fans an inside look at her design process, plus offer business lessons, creative inspirations and everyday style, while extending NYFW coverage to OFTV. Alongside that came another first: Collina Strada’s debut fine jewelry collaboration, with Awe Inspired, featuring surreal sterling hedgehogs, molten talons and thorn-like forms, priced $225–$1,145 and made available immediately following the runway.
