For today’s Fashion Friday, I wanted to throw it back to the first iteration of this series: Fashcap. I created Fashcap in 2014 as a quick way to share new and noteworthy stories in the world of fashion.
Here are the deets for this week.
- H&M taps Simone Rocha for its next designer collab. The collection will be released on March 11 with a focus on sustainability – an important attribute for Rocha. She said to “be surprised” with the quality they were able to achieve at affordable price points. Besides women’s, the collection will include men’s, kid’s and beauty. Will you be shopping?
- Poshmark’s IPO. The app-based reseller far exceeded their initial offering at $100 per share. This continues the prediction that vintage and resale will be the name of the game in fashion going forward. Do you shop on Poshmark? Check out my closet here.
- Nordstorm debuts a clothing donation and beauty recycling program. I could not be more excited about this! I’m a Nordstrom girl for life and these added sustainability features make my heart happy.
- Paul Frank sells all intellectual property. As a kid, Paul Frank was all the rage. I wanted anything brightly colored and cartoon-looking. Paul Frank’s library is now in the hands of Futurity Brands, a Swiss company that plans to continue the legacy with a refreshed update. The cost of acquisition was not disclosed. Hmmm… any guesses?
