Exclusive: Zendaya Is an Absolute Dream in Vintage Bob Mackie
#Zendaya #Absolute #Dream #Vintage #Bob #Mackie
Time 100 honoree and cover star Zendaya celebrated the issue on Wednesday night in New York City by bringing back an iconic designer rarely seen on the red carpet.
For the occasion, she and longtime image architect Law Roach dug into the Bob Mackie vault, picking out a “teal and turquoise silk faille, emerald velvet strapless couture ball gown, from the Fall 1998 collection,” per the brand’s Instagram. The Bulgari brand ambassador accessorized with a step cut diamond necklace, diamond rings and diamond stud earrings, all from the High Jewelry collection.
A collector himself, Roach has consistently worked to create stand-out moments on the red carpet using archival fashion. There was Bella Hadid’s recent vintage run in Cannes, Anya Taylor-Joy’s Bob Mackie wedding gown for the “Emma” premiere and Addison Rae’s Tom Ford-era Gucci for her first Met Gala. With Zendaya, specifically, he’s often taken the opportunity to pay homage to iconic women and events in fashion history, like with the 1982 Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture gown once owned by Ebony Fashion Fair founder Eunice Johnson for the Essence Black Women in Hollywood Awards, or the purple and green 2003 Versace from the BET Awards, which was originally worn by Beyoncé.

“Vintage and archival dressing isn’t a trend for me,” Roach wrote on Instagram, on an image of Zendaya in the Bob Mackie from the fitting. “It’s what lead [sic] me to this career and will always be my first choice when possible. I’m so grateful that I have been granted rare access to some of the most amazing archives. This @bobmackie is one of the most special! Thank you Mr. Mackie for trusting me[;] I’m so honored you even know my name.”
In his own Instagram post, Mackie confirmed that Roach “was given rare access to the Bob Mackie archives” for this carpet. Only the best for a Fashion Icon.

The Growth of Zelie for She & our “Summer in Malibu” Faves

The reality of fashion in the metaverse Scroll to Continue
An article from The State of Fashion: Technology, a report co-published by Business of Fashion and McKinsey & Company, explains how brands and companies need to focus on generating sustainable revenue from the metaverse. One of the most prominent factors in the development of fashion in the metaverse is virtual fashion as it pertains to digital identity. “The market for gaming skins could reach $70 billion by 2024, up from $40 billion in 2020,” per the report, which recommends that fashion brands partner up with gaming and tech companies that have already been producing paid-for digital skins for years now. {Business of Fashion}
Dior is releasing its Travis Scott collaboration
“Cactus Jack,” Travis Scott’s collaboration with Dior, will release July 13 after being reworked as a capsule. The collection was initially slated for a January release to serve as Dior’s main spring collection but was indefinitely postponed after the tragedies at Scott’s Astroworld festival. (Eight people died and two more were hospitalized as a result of the November 2021 show. More than 300 concert-goers were injured.) The LVMH house did not provide an explanation for the shift in strategy. {WWD}
The medical professionals debunking health myths on TikTok
On TikTok, health misinformation spreads like wildfire and can impact medical decisions made by influenced users. Rina Raphael of The New York Times profiles multiple experts, like Mustafa Dhahir, a practicing pharmacist and medical student in Australia, who creates content on TikTok to debunk misinformation. Many of these creators say the work is draining. “For every large creator who is genuinely evidence-based, you’ve got 50 or 60 big creators who spread misinformation,” says Dr. Idrees Mughal, a Britain-based physician with 1 million TikTok followers. Abbie Richards, a misinformation researcher, wants to see more investment in the business of ‘debunking.’ {The New York Times}
