Capri Holdings will bank on mid-tier pricing and a partnership with Amazon following its sale of Versace to Prada, indicating it may relinquish its image as a luxury fashion conglomerate.

From Burberry to Michael Kors and Under Armour, brands are leaning on product chiefs to navigate economic uncertainty and reignite innovation.

The clothes on offer at New York Fashion Week ranged from fanciful to practical to a perfect mix of the two, reports Lynn Yaeger.

Without Tapestry, Capri Holdings has a tough road ahead to return its biggest brand to growth.

The $8.5 billion deal is off after the US Federal Trade Commission successfully blocked it in court. In announcing the termination, the Coach-owner said it would buy back stock, while Capri outlined a turnaround plan that includes closing some Michael Kors stores.

This September, BoF and TikTok co-hosted an intimate roundtable with executives from the likes of TikTok, LVMH, Calvin Klein, Fendi, Tiffany & Co., Van Cleef & Arpels and E.l.f. Beauty, to discuss how brands can effectively build digital intimacy with their communities and drive commercial results.

Michael Kors testified about the nature of the competitive landscape of the handbag market, as the FTC scrutinises Tapestry’s $8.5 billion acquisition of Capri Holdings.

The intense political moment found its way onto the runway, wittingly or unwittingly, reports Lynn Yaeger.

Above all, this New York Fashion Week will be remembered for floor-sweeping leather coats and ‘Queen Bey,’ writes Lynn Yaeger.

The second half of New York Fashion Week suggested the season wasn’t just about 90s influences but gossamer fabrics, trawling nets, big jackets over tiny skirts and when in doubt lace, lace, lace, reports Lynn Yaeger.
