- The Pre-Makeup Glow Audit: How Nykaa Rice Water And Glycolic Acid Perfected My Foundation Finish
By Teyana Sharma By Teyana Sharma The Pre-Makeup Glow Audit: How Nykaa Rice Water And Glycolic Acid Perfected My Foundation Finish 12 November 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Every beauty editor has a secret handshake with their favorite foundation—a moment of silent, knowing appreciation for that flawless coverage. But let’s be honest: even the most expensive foundation is only as good as the canvas beneath it. For years, I chased the perfect primer, hoping for a miracle product that could smooth texture, eliminate dullness, and blur pores all at once. What I needed wasn't a product to sit on my skin, but a ritual to refine it. I needed an ultimate glow-prep routine. It took abandoning the heavy, silicone-laden primers and turning back to the fundamentals to find my Holy Grail—a simple, dual-step prep powered by the ancient secrets of rice water paired with the modern brilliance of Glycolic Acid. The true makeup hack isn't a setting spray or a contour trick; it’s a commitment to a smooth, radiant base that needs minimal coverage. Enter the game-changing duo from Nykaa : a cleansing ritual that polishes without stripping, and a milky mist that primes with pure hydration. Step 1: The Reset Button I've long been a skeptic of exfoliating cleansers, fearing the tight, dry feeling they often leave behind. But the Nykaa Collection Rice Water & Glycolic Acid Facewash is a revelation in gentle efficacy. It’s a moment of mindful cleansing that feels rich and non-stripping, yet delivers powerful resurfacing action. The star ingredients here, Glycolic Acid (AHA) and Rice Water , work in perfect synergy. Glycolic Acid is the gentle sculptor, delicately lifting away dead skin cells to smooth texture and refine pores. Meanwhile, the centuries-old wisdom of Rice Water—packed with vitamins and minerals—brightens the complexion and evens out tone. The result isn't just clean skin; it's skin that has been polished to a glass-like sheen, ready to drink up the next step. Step 2: The Glass Skin Veil If the facewash is the polish, the Nykaa Collection Milky Toner Mist With Rice Water & Glycolic Acid is the ultimate blurring, dewy veil. This product is the absolute key to achieving that luminous, expensive-looking makeup finish. Forget sticky primers. This isn't just a toner—it's a multi-tasking prep spray and a moisturizing milk combined into one lightweight mist. The "milky" texture delivers a burst of hydration that instantly plumps the skin and locks in moisture without a trace of oil. The continued application of Rice Water brightens, while the Glycolic Acid gently encourages collagen production, softening the appearance of fine lines over time. For me, this mist replaces my traditional primer. I spritz it liberally after cleansing and before my moisturizer (if needed), allowing the fine mist to settle. It creates a dewy, non-greasy canvas that grips makeup beautifully. My foundation glides over my skin rather than sinking into it, and that dreaded cakey appearance around the nose and forehead is virtually eliminated. It truly gives the skin an instant, bright radiance boost. This two-step routine is less about applying makeup and more about prepping a flawless, bright surface. The combination of gentle exfoliation and dewy, oil-free hydration ensures your skin is at its radiant best before the first drop of foundation even touches it. In the pursuit of that coveted ‘I woke up like this’ glow, remember this: the secret lies not in the makeup you apply, but in the canvas you create. The Nykaa Rice Water & Glycolic Acid pairing doesn't just treat your skin; it optimizes it. Trust me, your foundation will thank you.

- Say Goodbye To Hair Fall, Dandruff & Oily Skin: Wishcare’s Power Trio Now On Nykaa
By Ananya Patankar By Ananya Patankar Say Goodbye To Hair Fall, Dandruff & Oily Skin: Wishcare’s Power Trio Now On Nykaa 25 July 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Three targeted formulas, one trusted brand. From scalp to skin, WishCare delivers clean, effective care, now exclusively on Nykaa . Get to the root of your beauty woes with WishCare’s three must-haves on Nykaa—whether it’s persistent hair fall, pesky dandruff, or oily skin that never settles, these power-packed formulas deliver visible results, fast. When it comes to personal care, one size rarely fits all. That’s why WishCare, known for its ingredient-led, solution-focused formulas, has launched three high-performance essentials on Nykaa that are tailor-made for your most stubborn skin and scalp concerns. From fighting chronic hair fall to banishing dandruff and balancing oily skin under the sun, these products deliver serious results backed by clean formulations and glowing reviews. Let’s start at the top, your scalp. If your hairbrush is starting to look like a thatched roof, this gentle yet effective shampoo could be the intervention you need. Powered by a potent blend of rice water, multi-peptides, rosemary, and caffeine, this shampoo is a scalp-friendly, sulfate-free solution that strengthens hair from the roots while promoting growth and reducing breakage. Its lightweight formula produces a rich lather without drying out your scalp, making it ideal for oily to combination scalps. What users love? “My hair feels stronger after just a week,” says one reviewer. Others swear by its mild fragrance and how it helps reduce both dandruff and hair fall. At just ₹495, this is the kind of everyday essential your shower shelf deserves. Furthermore, when it comes to flakes and itchiness it’s more than just an inconvenience, they can tank your confidence. WishCare’s dandruff-control shampoo tackles the issue from the roots with AHA and BHA, two exfoliants that gently lift away buildup and dead skin while maintaining your scalp’s moisture balance. Unlike harsh anti-dandruff shampoos, this one hydrates as it exfoliates, keeping sensitivity at bay and restoring scalp health with regular use. It’s especially ideal for those who suffer from recurring dandruff but hate the drying effects of typical formulas. Bonus points for being vegan, cruelty-free, and sulfate-free, proving that gentle doesn’t mean ineffective. And once your scalp feels balanced and refreshed, it's time to turn your attention to your skin, because WishCare’s expertise doesn’t just stop at hair. Which brings us to WishCare’s sunscreen which isn’t just sun protection, it’s skincare. Infused with 5% niacinamide, Zinc PCA, ceramides, CICA, and oat extract, this fluid SPF offers a weightless, non-greasy, and completely white-cast-free experience. It sinks into oily and acne-prone skin like a dream, mattifying instantly while improving your skin barrier over time. It’s rare to find a sunscreen that plays well under makeup, doesn’t clog pores, and still provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ protection, but this one checks all those boxes. Reviewers rave about how it “feels like skincare” and how it’s helped calm breakouts while keeping skin shine-free all day. What is astonishing is that all these three products are vegan, cruelty-free, and free from sulfates and parabens, proving that clean beauty can be powerful too. With each priced at an affordable ₹495 and backed by Nykaa’s trusted platform, you don’t have to compromise on results, ethics, or price. Whether you're looking to stop hairfall in its tracks, clear out stubborn dandruff, or finally find a sunscreen that doesn’t make you greasy, WishCare’s power trio on Nykaa is your shortcut to visible, lasting results.

- The Nykaa Cosmetics Edit: Decoding Top 5 Brightening Face Washes And Cleansers For Your Creative Canvas
By Teyana Sharma By Teyana Sharma The Nykaa Cosmetics Edit: Decoding Top 5 Brightening Face Washes And Cleansers For Your Creative Canvas 4 November 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Let’s be real. In the world that runs on deadlines, mood boards, and endless travel—the world we live in—your skin is the first thing that tells the story. And darling, that story needs to be radiant, not ragged. We spend so much time perfecting the frame, the light, and the vibe , but none of it works if your canvas is tired, dull, or throwing a barrier tantrum. As a beauty influencer, I'm constantly testing. I need products that are efficient, impactful, and utterly dependable . My sink side isn't for decoration; it's a meticulously curated lab. The idea that a cleanser is just 'soap' is a myth we’re retiring immediately. Your cleanser is your first treatment—your skin's daily reset button. I’ve pulled the five formulas from Nykaa Cosmetics that truly belong in a professional kit. These heroes, packed with Glycolic Acid, Niacinamide, and Rice Water , are the reason my skin still glows after a 48-hour flight or a week of heavy makeup. Consider this your cheat sheet for flawless, filter-free radiance. My Five Indispensable Cleanser Secrets I've categorized these based on the skin mood you’re currently battling. Choose the one that speaks to your skin's emergency. 1. When You Need To Look Instantly Expensive: The Exfoliation Heroes If you feel like your skin has a film over it—a layer of dullness that just won’t quit—it’s time for a controlled micro-resurface. These two deliver that fresh, smooth feel that makes foundation feel like silk. L'Oreal Paris Glycolic Bright Daily Foaming Face Cleanser (100ml) : This is what I reach for when I have zero time for dullness . It's potent. The Glycolic Acid gets straight to work, lifting that weary layer and giving you an instant shot of clarity. It truly makes the skin look brighter after just one use. It's the pre-event secret. High-impact, quick results. If your skin is resilient and needs a wake-up call, this is it. Minimalist 7% ALA & AHA Brightening Face Cleanser (100ml) : For the ingredient-obsessed among us, this is a masterclass in formulation. Pairing AHA (Glycolic Acid) with 7% ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid) gives you deep texture refinement plus serious antioxidant power. It’s tackling roughness and protecting against environmental stress simultaneously. Smart, multi-tasking, and perfect for when your pores start looking a little too friendly with the camera lens. 2. When Breakouts and Shine Are the Enemy: The Balancing Act If your creative genius is accompanied by an oily T-zone and congested pores, you need a smart solution. You need balance, not stripping. Plum 2% Niacinamide Face Wash With Rice Water (100ml) : I adore Niacinamide . It’s the ultimate good-guy ingredient. The 2% concentration here is fantastic for regulating that annoying mid-day shine and subtly tightening up the appearance of pores. It's brilliant prevention. A gentle approach to oil control. The Rice Water ensures your face feels plump and hydrated, not tight and squeaky—a rookie mistake in oily skin care. 3. When Your Skin Is Throwing a Tantrum: The Recovery Crew If you're dealing with redness, irritation, or post-retinol sensitivity, the only goal is to cleanse gently and support the barrier. Treat your skin like the fragile, brilliant thing it is. Dot & Key Barrier Repair + Hydrating Gentle Face Wash (100ml) : This is my emergency reset button . It’s ultra-gentle, non-stripping, and formulated to respect the skin’s acid mantle. When my skin feels sensitized from a heavy peel or too much travel, I switch to this immediately. Calming, restorative, and essential for ensuring your expensive serums actually work, instead of trying to fix a damaged barrier first. Nykaa Naturals Rice Water & Glycolic Acid Face Wash (100ml) : I’m including this one again because it’s the best choice for daily maintenance . It proves you can have the clarifying benefits of Glycolic Acid without the drama, thanks to the incredibly soothing nature of Rice Water . It’s the cleanser I always recommend to friends who want to "dip their toe" into active ingredients. Consistent glow, zero irritation. The perfect balance of gentle and effective. Don't Be Loyal—Be Smart The biggest mistake I see people make is sticking to one cleanser. Don't be loyal, be smart. Your skin changes daily based on stress, diet, climate, and your routine. Keep a Glycolic one for brightness (L’Oreal or Minimalist). Keep a Barrier one for comfort (Dot & Key or Nykaa Naturals). Invest in these formulas. They are the scaffolding for every other beautiful product you use. When your canvas is clean, bright, and calm, your genius can finally shine through.

- Hydration Meets High Shine With L'Oreal Paris Plump Ambition Hyaluron Lip Oil
By Ananya Patankar By Ananya Patankar Hydration Meets High Shine With L'Oreal Paris Plump Ambition Hyaluron Lip Oil 20 July 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement From Nykaa to your vanity, this is the gloss your lips have been waiting for. With 5% hyaluronic acid and a cushiony oil-gloss texture, L’Oréal Paris Plump Ambition delivers lasting hydration, visible plumpness, and an irresistible mirror-like shine. Nykaa welcomes a standout new arrival from L’Oréal Paris—the Plump Ambition Hyaluron Lip Oil , where skincare meets high-shine glamour. Skincare-infused and impossibly luminous, this oil-gloss hybrid doesn’t just sit pretty, it nourishes, plumps, and transforms. With four gorgeous shades and high-performance hydration, this is what beauty looks like when it’s powered by science and style. Lip oils being the new holy grail, L’Oréal’s take up a challenge and blends treatment with luxury. Infused with 5% hyaluronic acid, the formula delivers deep hydration, visibly smooths lip texture, and enhances natural fullness—without any tingling. Unlike sticky glosses or heavy balms, the texture is weightless yet nourishing. It glides on with a serum-like softness and leaves behind a radiant, mirror-gloss shine. In a world where beauty is multitasking, your lip colour should too. Each of the five Plump Ambition shades curated by L’Oréal has been thoughtfully crafted to complement a range of moods, occasions, and Indian skin tones. Whether you’re dressing up or winding down, there’s a gloss for every kind of ambition. 601 Worth It : A universal clear gloss that delivers high-shine confidence with no colour—just pure hydration and plumping power. Perfect as a standalone glow or layered over any lipstick. 641 Latte Glacé : Think creamy beige meets cool gloss. This soft latte hue is warm, elegant, and oh-so wearable—ideal for everyday polish with a hint of indulgence. 380 Rouge In Love : A juicy cherry-red gloss with sheer drama and a flirty edge. It’s bold but build-able, giving you that radiant flush without overwhelming your natural lip tone. 510 La Nuit Sparkle : Midnight mystery in a bottle. This deep wine gloss is laced with fine shimmer—romantic, moody, and perfect for evening glamour. 650 Nude Macaron : A creamy rose-beige that melts into the lips, offering just the right balance of warmth and polish. Subtle yet striking, it’s the kind of nude that enhances—not erases—your natural lip tone. Each shade offers a sheer, glossy payoff and a silky oil texture, giving you all-day wear without stickiness or weight. What’s special about this lip oil is that behind every swipe lies serious innovation. It contains 5% hyaluronic acid, a concentration usually reserved for top-tier skincare. It draws moisture into the lips, making them appear naturally fuller and supple with every application. There’s no tingling, stinging, or artificial swelling, just a silky cushion of hydration that lasts all day. With every swipe, your lips look smoother, fuller, and more nourished. When it comes to details L’Oréal Paris understands the importance. The applicator is oversized and cushiony, designed to hug the curve of your lips and glide product on generously without overloading. The formula itself is non-sticky, non-greasy, and smells like soft vanilla or berries (depending on the shade). Whether worn solo, over lipstick, or as a bedtime treat, it leaves lips plump, smooth, and kiss-ably soft. This isn’t just a lip product. It’s a power move in a bottle. With Plump Ambition , L’Oréal Paris redefines lip gloss as skincare in motion, ready for every glance, every moment, and every bold ambition. Available exclusively on Nykaa, this is your sign to swipe smart, because you’re worth it .

- Dreaming Of Paris By Nykaa Wanderlust: Not Hers. Not Mine. Just Something We Both Left Behind
By Shriniwas Kodape By Shriniwas Kodape Dreaming Of Paris By Nykaa Wanderlust: Not Hers. Not Mine. Just Something We Both Left Behind 11 June 2025 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Some mornings, Mumbai feels like a fight I didn’t agree to. Horns blaring like insults, the air thick with yesterday’s heat and today’s unfinished thoughts. I light a cigarette and stare at the ceiling like it owes me answers. That’s when I reach for Dreaming of Paris. Yes. A woman’s mist. I know. But let’s be honest—some things smell like memory. And this one? It smells like hers. Not any one woman. Maybe all of them. Maybe just her—the one who looked at me like she already knew how the story ended and kissed me anyway. Dreaming of Paris doesn’t beg. It barges in, barefoot and hungover, demanding espresso and playing Gainsbourg on vinyl. First spray and you’re gone—thrown into some twilight rooftop in Le Marais, where the wine’s always slightly too warm and the conversation always cuts a little too deep. It opens with berries and champagne—sweet, sure, but not soft. Like biting into a secret. There’s citrus too, sudden and sharp, like the first laugh in a room full of strangers. You wear this not to impress, but to haunt. And it’s not just for skin. The Body & Hair Fine Fragrance Mist? That’s where the real seduction lives. Spray it into your hair, and suddenly your presence becomes a memory someone else is trying to forget. Or remember. Or write a song about. Amira used to run her fingers through my hair after I used it. She’d say, “You smell like you did something reckless and just haven’t confessed it yet.” She was right. This mist doesn’t fade. It lingers. Like old poetry taped inside a notebook you still carry. The scent settles into musk—warm, ironic, almost too familiar. Like a night you didn’t expect to mean anything. But now, years later, it still owns a piece of you. Then there’s the Rejuvenating Shower Gel & Lotion . I found it by accident—left behind in my bathroom by a woman I met in Goa who told me she used to live in Montmartre but came to India to disappear. One rinse and I got it. It’s clean, fizzy, with that same champagne-citrus rush—but quieter. More private. Like scrubbing off guilt and keeping the good parts. And finally, the Eau de Parfum . The real deal. No frills, no apologies. Just the purest version of what all these products are hinting at. You don’t wear it for likes. You wear it when you’ve got unfinished business. When you’ve lived enough to know that sometimes the right scent can carry you back to the best mistake you ever made. I’ve seen it all over Instagram—“Finally got my hands on this viral mist,” “Living my Parisian girl dream.” I used to roll my eyes. Now I spray it before I go out. Because some nights I want to be her dream. Or maybe just the man she wrote about once, then never spoke of again. They call it the IT-girl fragrance. Sure. But to me, it smells like old jazz bars, leather jackets you never returned, and one perfect day that broke your heart just right. It’s not about masculinity. It’s about memory. This scent doesn’t make me feel pretty. It makes me feel present. Like I still have time to rewrite the ending. Most brands sell Paris like a souvenir shop—berets, baguettes, bullshit. This one? It smells like the Paris you find at 3AM, kissing someone whose name you never asked, while the city lights flicker like bad neon promises. So yeah, I wear a woman’s mist. And every time I do, I remember: I’ve lived. I’ve lost. And I’ve loved like hell. Spray. Breathe. Move. Let them wonder.

- The Snake That Wore Red: Inside The Vision Cultured™ Revolution
The Snake That Wore Red: Inside The Vision Cultured™ Revolution By Shriniwas Kodape The Snake That Wore Red: Inside The Vision Cultured™ Revolution 19 October 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement The night smelled of aerosol and adrenaline. In a cramped studio littered with spray cans and half-finished sketches, Zachary Michael Roberts stood under a flickering bulb, hood pulled low, a cloud of red mist swirling around him. His hands moved fast, sharp, precise, as if he were conducting an orchestra only he could hear. Each burst of paint hissed like a snake exhaling. On the table lay the beginnings of a myth: the Vision Cultured™ “VC x YOTS Shedding Modular Piece.” Waterproof nylon. Breathable lining. An anatomically accurate ribcage stenciled across the front. Two snakes entwined in the back, their heads forming a heart. A jacket that could turn into a backpack, then into a tote bag, a shape-shifter. “I wanted something that evolves,” Roberts says, eyes gleaming with a mix of pride and exhaustion. “Like us.” He was nineteen when he started Vision Cultured™, a name that sounded less like a fashion label and more like a movement. And that’s exactly what it is, a rebellion stitched in nylon and sealed with Mod Podge. “I never wanted to be one thing,” he admits. “I draw, paint, shoot videos, design; everything I’ve ever loved comes through this one company. It’s my legacy in motion.” Now, at twenty-something, with a Bachelor of Fashion Design underway, Roberts moves like a man who knows he’s onto something not chasing trends, but purpose. The Shedding Modular Piece wasn’t born in a boardroom but from a university assignment on modular fashion that spiraled into obsession. He laughs when he recalls the drafts. “Hundreds of them,” he says. “The hood was the hardest. It covers the face, only the eyes visible. It hides, but it also dares. Red, bold, defiant, dangerous.” Thailand changed everything. A trip to Bangkok for inspiration turned into a revelation Muay Thai fighters, their coiled energy and calculated patience, reminded him of snakes. “They strike only when it matters,” he says. “They shed ego through discipline. That became the philosophy of the piece: protect, adapt, evolve.” The snake, symbol of 2025’s Chinese zodiac, slithered straight into his imagination. It wasn’t just aesthetic; it was spiritual. “Shedding is uncomfortable,” he says. “It’s growth through pain. That’s what the snake represents what we all go through.” But Roberts didn’t stop at symbolism. He turned it into texture. The jacket’s surface is hand-sprayed using Loop Colors, layered with streaks of red and white that crack, peel, and shift over time. It’s deliberately imperfect, a skin in transition. “Like graffiti,” he says. “Claimed, buffed, erased, then reclaimed again.” Each wear tells a new story. The Mod Podge seal begins to break; the colors flake and shift. The garment changes as its owner does. No two ever age the same. It’s not about permanence, it's about the poetry of erosion. There’s a quiet boldness to Roberts’ world, one foot in streetwear, the other in philosophy. “Vision Cultured™ is the intersection of identity, expression, and community,” he says. “It’s about transformation, rebellion, growth. Every piece has intention. Every stitch has a story.” And it’s not just talk. You can feel it in the weight of the jacket, in the way the ribcage aligns with your own when you wear it. It’s both armor and confession raw, exposed, unafraid. “I’ve always been fascinated by what’s beneath the surface,” Roberts says. “People, design, life, all of it. Showing bones feels vulnerable and powerful at the same time.” He describes his customers like characters in a novel. “Artists, fighters, wanderers, thinkers. People who’ve lived through something and aren’t afraid to wear that.” There’s something cinematic about the way he says it as if he’s already seen them walking through neon-lit streets, the red jacket glowing like a pulse in the dark. For Roberts, Vision Cultured™ isn’t just fashion; it’s alchemy. The transformation of pain into purpose. “Everything I said I would do,” he repeats softly, “I will do.” It sounds less like a quote and more like a spell. And maybe that’s what Vision Cultured™ really is a collection of living spells disguised as garments. They breathe, they age, they shed. They whisper stories about becoming. In the end, the Shedding Modular Piece isn’t just a jacket it’s a mirror. One that reflects not who you are, but who you’re becoming. Because true expression, like true evolution, never stays still. It coils. It sheds. And then, it strikes.

- Francesca Bellettini Ushers In Gucci’s New Dawn
Francesca Bellettini Ushers In Gucci’s New Dawn By Sakshi Shah Francesca Bellettini Ushers In Gucci’s New Dawn 19 September 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement The September sun had barely risen over Florence when whispers began to ripple through the industry: Francesca Bellettini would be the new President and Chief Executive Officer of Gucci . It felt less like an announcement and more like the unveiling of a destiny, a return written years ago but revealed only now. Gucci, a house that has always blurred the line between heritage and revolution, had found its new storyteller, a woman whose path was carved not through sketches and fabrics, but through strategy, vision, and the quiet assurance of someone who knows how to turn possibility into permanence. Her story does not begin with fashion’s glittering runways but in London’s financial heart, where young Bellettini pored over numbers, forecasts, and balance sheets. It was a world of hard lines and clear logic, yet within it she discovered her own artistry: the ability to read hidden rhythms in the data, to sense opportunity where others saw risk. That discipline would later become her secret strength in an industry that thrives on the tension between dreams and reality. From Prada to Helmut Lang, her path wound steadily into the world of luxury, and in 2003 she arrived at Gucci, a young strategist entrusted with shaping merchandising and long-term vision. The arc of her career is almost cinematic. From Gucci to Bottega Veneta, and then to Saint Laurent, where she orchestrated one of the most remarkable transformations in modern fashion, Bellettini proved that leadership is not about controlling creativity but about framing it so it shines brighter. At Saint Laurent , revenues soared, yet the house never lost its edge, proof of her ability to nurture artistry while anchoring it in business clarity. There was nothing flamboyant about her leadership style. Instead, colleagues described her as precise, observant, and deeply human. She was the kind of leader who listened intently, who allowed creative visionaries the space to dream, while building frameworks that ensured those dreams could live beyond the runway. At Saint Laurent, this delicate alchemy between imagination and execution became her signature, and it is this same touch that now makes her return to Gucci feel almost poetic. Gucci is more than a fashion brand; it is a cultural mirror, reflecting desires, rebellions, and ideals of every era it passes through. From Tom Ford’s provocative sensuality to Alessandro Michele’s kaleidoscopic maximalism, Gucci has never stood still. Each reinvention became not just a collection but a zeitgeist, a movement. Yet in 2025, with consumers hungering for authenticity, sustainability, and meaning beyond logos, Gucci must find its new rhythm. Bellettini steps into this moment not as a disruptor crashing through the door, but as a custodian with vision, someone who knows how to protect legacy while charting new frontiers. Her words upon stepping into the role carried both reverence and ambition: an honor to guide one of the world’s most iconic houses, excitement to collaborate with Kering CEO Luca de Meo, and admiration for Demna’s fearless creativity. The balance of humility and resolve in her voice reflects a philosophy she has carried throughout her career that leadership is not domination but stewardship, a responsibility to nurture what already exists while daring to create what does not. This partnership with Demna is one the industry watches with intrigue. His avant-garde boldness has redefined Balenciaga, and now, under Bellettini’s guidance, his daring will find a new canvas at Gucci. The dialogue between his creativity and her clarity has the potential to redraw the contours of luxury. It is not about taming vision but grounding it, ensuring it resonates with a global audience while remaining undeniably Gucci. What makes this chapter compelling is that Bellettini does not see luxury as mere commerce. For her, it is culture, intimacy, and resonance. It is the way a bag becomes an heirloom, the way a show lingers in memory long after the lights dim. Her leadership suggests Gucci’s future will not simply be measured in profit margins but in its ability to spark wonder, to create belonging, and to shape moments that feel timeless. The appointment is both the culmination and beginning. A woman who once walked the corridors of Gucci as a strategist now returns as its leader, carrying decades of wisdom and a reputation forged in resilience. Gucci’s story has always been about transformation, about daring to reinvent itself while never losing sight of its soul. Under Francesca Bellettini, that story enters a new act, one that promises elegance without complacency, daring without dissonance. The lights are on, the stage is set, and history waits to be written. Gucci has chosen its narrator, and the world is ready to listen.

- Dibba Studio: Weaving The Future Of Fashion At Thailand Fashion Week AW25-26
Dibba Studio: Weaving The Future Of Fashion At Thailand Fashion Week AW25-26 By Shriniwas Kodape Dibba Studio: Weaving The Future Of Fashion At Thailand Fashion Week AW25-26 2 September 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement The night was heavy with anticipation, the kind that hums beneath the skin before a story begins. The chandeliers above glowed like constellations suspended in velvet darkness, and the murmurs of the audience rose and fell like a tide against the shore. Then the music swelled, low at first, almost imperceptible, and the runway came alive. A figure emerged from the shadows, draped in fabric that caught the light like a secret being revealed. In that moment, silence fell, and DIBBA Studio began to write its chapter at Thailand Fashion Week AW25/26 . What unfolded was not a mere display of garments but the telling of a story. DIBBA Studio has always carried the reputation of a brand unafraid of innovation, but this collection transformed that ethos into something much deeper. Each look became a sentence, each fabric a metaphor, each silhouette a carefully chosen word. The runway was their page, the models their narrators, and the tale was one of identity, transformation, and artistry at its most distilled. The collection leaned into contrasts, weaving the past into the present, precision into fluidity, stillness into movement. Jackets cut with sharp edges softened into cascading hems. Drapes suggested tradition yet refused to remain confined within it, dissolving instead into gestures of contemporary rebellion. The designs seemed to speak to heritage without echoing it too literally, translating memory into a language meant for now. Textures played the role of punctuation. Heavy wool stood solid, cotton carried the warmth of familiarity, while gauzy layers slipped through the air like whispers. One could almost imagine the sensation of fabric against skin, the steady weight of a structured shoulder, the fleeting coolness of silk as it brushed against light. The tactile story was as vivid as the visual one, reminding everyone that clothing is an experience, not just an image. Movement deepened the narrative. With each step, garments shifted their meanings. An oversized coat that at first appeared austere softened into unexpected gentleness, angular lines collapsed into liquid ease, rigid outlines dissolved into forms that seemed to breathe. Fashion here was not frozen in presentation; it lived, altered, adapted, like a character revealing new facets as the plot unfolded. The palette carried the emotional arc of the tale. Earth tones such as ochres, greens, and browns offered grounding, as though rooting the collection in the soil of memory. Then came flashes of surprise: a lining of crimson like a pulse of hidden passion, silver threads that glimmered like moonlight, indigo breaking through the muted tones with quiet brilliance. These choices were not decorative but revelatory, moments of sudden clarity embedded within the flow of the story. What struck most was the restraint. DIBBA Studio did not need extravagance to command attention. Every detail seemed deliberate, each garment confident in its simplicity. There was no reaching for spectacle, no unnecessary flourish, only the assurance of a voice that knew its strength. Even the styling of the models reflected this clarity. Sleek hair, understated makeup, and an aura of authenticity emphasized the garments rather than overshadowed them. They moved not as mannequins but as people, carrying the designs into the realm of lived reality. Beneath the spectacle, the collection posed deeper reflections. Fashion is always about more than fabric; it is about identity, about the tension between what we inherit and what we become. DIBBA Studio seemed to ask: how do we honor the past while stepping into the future? How do we carry roots without being bound by them? In a time when the industry wrestles with sustainability, cultural representation, and the place of technology, this collection offered a quiet answer. Progress does not demand erasure, and innovation shines brightest when grown from tradition. As the final model disappeared into the darkness and the applause broke free, the audience was left not with fleeting admiration but with a lingering sensation. This was fashion that lived beyond the runway. It was art, philosophy, narrative, woven into fabric and carried forward in memory. DIBBA Studio’s AW25/26 showcase was not content with being seen; it demanded to be felt. In the end, what unfolded was more than a fashion show. It was an experience, a reminder that clothing is never just about what we wear but about the stories we choose to tell through it. And in that story, DIBBA Studio has carved a chapter that will not fade easily, a chapter that threads itself into the future with poise, confidence, and quiet brilliance.

- The Pursuit Of Comfort: Body By Victoria’s Secret Redefines The Everyday Bra
The Pursuit Of Comfort: Body By Victoria’s Secret Redefines The Everyday Bra By Sakshi Shah The Pursuit Of Comfort: Body By Victoria’s Secret Redefines The Everyday Bra 18 August 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement It is a truth not universally acknowledged, though it ought to be, that a woman in possession of a demanding life must be in want of a perfect bra. Not the kind that digs, pinches, or whispers of compromise, but one that moves with her, as faithful and uncomplaining as the shadow that follows her in the sun. In a century where fashions bloom and wither in the span of a single season, such creations are rare gems hidden among the baubles. And yet, this summer, Victoria’s Secret has chosen to set aside the merely fashionable in favor of something enduring: the Body by Victoria FlexFactor Lightly Lined Plunge Demi Bra, a piece designed not to flatter for an instant, but to serve a woman for the long arc of her days. The Body by Victoria collection has long been a fixture in wardrobes across continents, earning its place not through loud declarations but through the quiet loyalty of those who have worn it. With one bra sold every five seconds, it has built a reputation on that most unfashionable of virtues consistency. Yet, just as even the finest home requires the occasional opening of new windows to let in the air, so too must a heritage design allow for innovation. The FlexFactor is such a breath of fresh air. At its core lies a slender marvel: a flexible titanium underwire, as yielding as it is strong, bending to the contours of its wearer’s form yet never losing its shape. Gone is the rigid frame that has, for decades, been lingerie’s necessary evil; here is a structure that offers the body both liberty and loyalty. The cups, with their memory foam of feather-light touch, recall the luxury of a bespoke gown tailored not by hand, but by technology so precise it knows every rise and hollow of the body it serves. One does not merely wear this piece; one inhabits it, as naturally as one inhabits a favorite armchair or a trusted friend’s embrace. From the first hour of the morning to the last stride before evening’s rest, it follows without intruding, supported without announcing itself. To present such a creation to the world, Victoria’s Secret entrusted its image to Charlotte Wales, a photographer whose lens finds grace in the most fleeting of gestures. In New York City, where life moves at a pace brisk enough to test the patience of saints, she caught movement in its purest form: women striding, turning, laughing unbound. The campaign’s architect, Adam Selman, Victoria’s Secret’s Executive Creative Director, envisioned not a tableau of stillness but a living portrait of freedom, aided by the creative agency Chandelier and the deft styling of Malina Joseph Gilchrist. “We wanted the campaign to show movement and freedom,” Selman remarks, “and the flexible ease of our newest Body by Victoria styles. The innovation behind this wire is truly impressive.” It is a rare pleasure when a designer speaks not of trends or spectacle, but of ease of the quiet luxury that comes from wearing something perfectly attuned to one’s life. Yet the FlexFactor is not an isolated marvel; it belongs to a broader constellation of offerings. Within the Body by Victoria collection lie bras, panties, casual sleepwear, and apparel, each piece sharing the same philosophy: beauty without restriction. Prices begin at $16.95, sizes range from XS to XXL in apparel, and bands 30 to 44 with cups A to G in bras. The scale of choice is deliberate comfort and refinement are not to be hoarded by a select few. Victoria’s Secret itself, with more than 1,380 stores in nearly seventy countries and a workforce of over 30,000, has long occupied its place as a leader in intimate apparel. But it is not size that sustains such a legacy it is the will to adapt without surrendering one’s essence. The FlexFactor is not a seasonal diversion, but a declaration: that beauty reaches its zenith when it serves the woman, rather than demands she serve it. When it arrived on July 23rd, it did so not with fanfare alone, but with the quiet confidence of something built to last. True luxury, after all, is not excess but precision in every seam, every curve, every choice of fabric working toward a single purpose. For the woman who prizes independence as highly as elegance, the FlexFactor is more than an object of purchase. It is a companion in motion, an ally in the pursuit of a day unbroken by discomfort. And so it stands, this newest chapter in the Body by Victoria story not content to rest upon the laurels of the past, but reaching forward into a future where structure and softness, beauty and utility, need not be strangers. Available now in Victoria’s Secret boutiques across the world and at VictoriasSecret.com , the FlexFactor Lightly Lined Plunge Demi Bra offers not merely the adornment of the body, but the rarest luxury of all: the adornment of a life well-lived.
