Cinq à Sept Resort 2023 – WWD – Pen 18
Jane Siskin of Cinq Sept continues to evolve the contemporary brand into an updated interpretation of the bohemian lifestyle. For his resort offering, Siskin drew inspiration from Thea Porter (designer, artist and museum), incorporating elements from the 60s and 70s through Siskin’s bohemian lens. The collection is a celebration of the times – as travelers begin to venture out again on global holidays, Siskin offers a modern and advanced wardrobe through the use of graphic prints and bold color that intensifies the free spirit aesthetic.
sight: Free-flowing fashion with a dash of sophistication – through the use of embellishments and embroidery and a sense of ease in more structured silhouettes.
Quote of note: “We’re seeing a lot of self-expression, people less afraid of color, embellishments, it’s a fun time to do what people want, let everyone fly their freak flags — and this collection evokes that kind of spirit.” Wherever you can go.”
key pieces: a pearl and black tulip burnout print dress, a black crepe suit with floral embellishments in the form of custom bullion and beaded appliques (also over a white T-shirt for a more casual approach), silk Charmeuse top and skirt set of feathers with detailing, and a crimped pearl tone sequined suit (also available in a dramatic floor-length one-shoulder gown).
takeaway: Siskin continues to infuse the excitement of casual dressing by adding a dose of glamor to their commercially successful eye-catching outfits, tailoring and separates.

“In the podcast, I talk with a range of aspirational creatives about their vintage-style journey, complete with eye-catching vintage wardrobes. The podcast aims to get more people to wear more vintage—no insect balls here, just splendor and consistency, naturally,” said Delison, who herself has Marilyn Monroe-esque tresses and can be seen in the 1940s.

The speaker lineup for season one includes broadcaster, writer and collector Claudia Chan Shaw; Emmy Award-nominated costume designer Marion Boyce; Fashion historian and owner of an avid Bonnie Cashin collection Stephanie Lake, and old-fashioned influencer and knitwear designer Natalie Jose among many others.

The New, London Made-to-Order Label Sanne is All Haste, and No Waste – WWD – Pen 18
london – Sanne’s founder and creative director, Lena McCroary, is looking to the past, and taking tips from Savile Row to fashion the future as a womenswear designer in London.
The designer, who studied at Central Saint Martins and trained on Seville Row, creates made-to-order clothing for clients, which she is able to produce quickly by hand in a workshop in Battersea, London.
She can fulfill an order in five days, and sources many of her clothing in the UK. Her aim is to keep the supply chain as short and agile as possible.
She orders only what she has booked from customers, thereby avoiding wastage at the end of the season. He doesn’t have to worry about factory minimums, sell-throughs or other challenges that traditional wholesale models can present to a budding designer.
McCrory envisions themed capsule collections and leaves them out throughout the year. She sells through private events, the latest of which takes place on Tuesdays on the roof of The Mandrake Hotel in London.

“Fashion is a bit stuck at the moment,” said the designer. “A lot of brands are too big to pivot, but we’re small enough to make changes and move things forward.”
McCroary’s latest capsule is called Cosmic Age Part Two. He’s once again teamed up with young artist Isabella Olesinska (whom he discovered on Instagram) to create a series of fun prints that depict a fictional destination beyond the stars.
His inspiration was Elon Musk, his company SpaceX, and his fascination with far-flung travel. With that in mind, he wondered what the people living on Mars might wear, if they manage to make it there.

“I wanted to reflect the times we are living in and see how ordinary citizens would live in outer space,” said the designer. “And I love the fact that nobody took Elon Musk seriously enough about space travel, which is why he decided to engineer his own.”
The prints are cartoonish and evocative, with a Pop Art-inspired palette and lots of pink, turquoise, yellow and red. They appear in luxe, heavy silk twill pajama-inspired suits and coordinating sets. Buttons are made from bio-resin or mother-of-pearl.
Quotes include “The Sky Is Not the Limit,” “The Greatest Voyage Is Still to Come,” “Welcome Aboard the San Space Station,” and “The New Cosmic Age.”
McCrory said she wanted the colors and graphics to be “fun, bright and invigorating”, adding that her silky pieces “look incredibly sexy, even when they are not embracing or revealing.”

Prices range from £500 to £3,000, with shirts in the £800 to £900 range and shorts and trousers costing £650 to £750.
Locking his mind in a greener, no-waste future, McCrory plans to unveil a capsule in September made entirely from vintage cashmere scarves he’s gotten from eBay. A few months ago she created a similar collection using denim used on the site.
December’s fall will center around a new theme: McCrory is moving from outer space to the metaverse, NFTs, and blockchain technology, though her clothing will be for Earthlings, not avatars.

“For Ariana’s tons of looks, we started with conceptualizing the direction we wanted to go for this particular moment,” Smith said. “The Broadway community is so deeply personal to her, so we were looking for clothes that felt suitably glamorous while still having the appropriate level of polish for a host. As Ariana so eloquently put it, the night featured several nominees. It was also about honoring individuals and the incredible show, so what she wore also conveyed a sense of being special while not making her the center of attention.”

“Ariana likes to constantly play with the expectations of a leading lady and blur the lines between masculine and feminine details,” said Adamiston. “Her influence is always quite classic with a twist, which is why we loved the idea of working with a heritage brand like Boss on some very advanced and unexpected options. We played with tuxedo-inspired dresses, blazers with cutouts and ornate lapels and gowns with transformational elements, which suited Ariana perfectly. ,
During awards season, DeBoz stood out for her style of modern classics, regularly making her mark on every red carpet.

djokovic: ATP Rankings: Daniil Medvedev dethrones Djokovic to regain World No 1 spot
Daniil Medvedev on Monday became the world No. 1 male player for the second time on Monday after Novak Djokovic slipped to number three in the ATP rankings.
Originally published at Pen 18
Last week, Medvedev was in action at the Libema Open, where he advanced to his second tour-level final on grass at the ATP 250 event. Meanwhile, Medvedev’s rise came after Novak Djokovic failed to defend his crown at the French Open.
Medvedev is unable to compete at this year’s Wimbledon as Russian and Belarusian players have been banned following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. However, ranking points will not be awarded.
For the first time in 19 years, none of the ‘Big Three’ – Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer – occupy the first two places.
Rafael Nadal remains in fourth place despite losing 1,000 points from last year’s French Open, while Djokovic has fallen 2000 points from his winning run at Roland Garros last year. The Serb has dropped a few places to No. 3, with points dropping this week from last year’s edition.
French Open runner-up Casper Roode has moved up from Stefanos Tsitsipas to fifth place. While Alexander Zverev has climbed to the second number for the first time. However, the German is facing a period after tearing a ligament in his right ankle during the French Open semi-final with Nadal.
Zverev’s participation at Wimbledon 2022 is still in doubt after his injury at the French Open, while Nadal’s fitness will remain in the limelight when he needs an injection for a Roland-Garros win.
Andy Murray scored his first Top 5 win since defeating Novak Djokovic in 2016, beating then-world No. 5 Stefanos Tsitsipas in the quarterfinals. Murray defeated Nick Kyrgios in the semi-finals before losing to Matteo Berrettini in the championship match.
Nick Kyrgios has climbed 13 places to 65th in the rankings after reaching the last four in Stuttgart. The 27-year-old defeated Jiri Leheka, Nikoloz Basilashvili and Maarten Fuskovics to reach his second semi-final of the season.
