I’m sometimes amazed by the people I get to meet through my job. There was that time I spoke to a cool-looking girl at the @coperni show without knowing who she was (she had zero entourage.) It turned out to be @theodorabosslady , fresh off the release of her debut album and on her way to becoming a bona fide MEGASTAR in France. A couple of months ago, she collected four awards at the French music awards @lesvictoires . What a difference a year makes! (📹: @hey_imlara )
Inside Palazzo Gucci in Florence: the “Gucci Storia” exhibition blends craftsmanship, technology, humor and a little @wwd . Also, I spotted @madonna ’s turquoise silk shirt in the window of a @gucci boutique the same day, in a clever little wink at the brand’s history of dressing celebrities. Do you recognize the black leather jacket?
Surf’s up! The @chanelofficial Coco Beach collection is on sale at its new pop-up store in Biarritz, opened just in time for @matthieu_blazy ’s debut cruise collection on Tuesday. Hope the weather holds!
What a rare sight to see designers and CEOs on stage together at a Capital Markets Day. It’s not the only industry convention that Luca de Meo has challenged since taking over as CEO of @kering_official last fall. Read all about his plan to return the French group to its former position as the “undisputed challenger” in the luxury sector on @wwd via the #linkinbio.

Roger Vivier is doubling down on its Paris presence with the opening of a new flagship offering exclusive products and services, including a made-to-order process that allows customers to personalize signature shoe styles like the Belle Vivier.
The boutique at 20 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré is located just 100 yards from its former store, which opened in 2004. But the prime real estate spot — a stone’s throw from Hermès and across the street from the one-year-old Alaïa flagship — is expected to bring a bump in visibility and foot traffic.
At 2,900 square feet, it’s the brand’s largest store worldwide and offers a full assortment of shoes and accessories — including handbags, jewelry, hats, belts and waistcoats — designed to distinguish Vivier from its competitors and diversify its revenue streams.
