Brexit

Brexit blues or bounce? Not sure, but Britons turn off spending tap says BDO

Pinning down the after-effects of the Brexit vote in the UK is turning out to be quite hard. Despite pre-referendum warnings of disaster or promises of a new, golden age for Britain, we sometimes forget that we’re still in the EU and will be for a good few years yet. So if the sky is…

Kering results: Gucci A+, YSL A++, Bottega Veneta – must try harder

Is Gucci’s success a flash in the pan? Can YSL survive the shock departure of Hedi Slimane? Is Bottega Veneta still the quiet star it’s been for years? All these questions and more will be answered right here. OK, it’s not hard: the answers are ‘no’, ‘no’, and well… ‘no’. Gucci and YSL are storming…

LVMH results: Marc Jacobs not for sale, French fashion market tough, beauty better

The luxury sector is being closely watched at the moment for any signs of a recovery, or even of a further downturn. And none is more closely watched than the world’s biggest, LVMH. So what did the Louis Vuitton and Fendi owner serve up yesterday? Well first of all, a definite statement that it intends…

Burberry results: Digital and mobile make it a luxury firm in a million

Burberry’s in the news at the moment. No, wait, Burberry’s always in the news. Just more so at the moment. So only a couple of days after announcing Christopher Bailey would step down as CEO, the company issued a trading update this morning that the news media is jumping all over. Newspaper and websites largely…

Mulberry SS16

Mulberry pulls it off: Coca gets the thumbs-up from shoppers

When I was younger, Mulberry was an aspirational brand for me. I loved the non-bling nature of its bags (even in the days before the word bling was invented) but I could never afford one. By the time I could afford one (or at least by the time I had a credit card), the company…

Jimmy Choo

Jimmy Choo has a spring in its step as trading proves strong

Do you ever fail to trust your instincts? Yesterday I was talking to a friend of mine about Jimmy Choo’s trading update today and I noticed that the company’s shares had dropped to below £1 each. I thought I should buy some as a look round the Jimmy Choo shop in Selfridges a few days…

Rihanna X Dior 2016

Rihanna x Dior: Now why didn’t Google Glass look like this?

It always irritates me when fashion writers use the word ‘futuristic’ about some new style statement. It usually means it’s either a) silver, b) a jumpsuit with a zip or c) something that looks vaguely like a retro sci-fi character would have worn.

Burberry AW16

Burberry’s brave new world: Think digital, think bags, think scarves

Given the tough time being faced by the luxury sector at present, predictions around Burberry’s results for the year to March 31 ranged from bad to downright awful. So now that the figures are out, what did we actually get? Well, not bad in the circumstances with plenty of focus on the future. And that…

Calvin Klein AW16

Bye to Costa, hello to Simons? Maybe, just maybe…

So it’s a big hug and bye-bye to Francisco Costa and Italo Zucchelli at Calvin Klein. But is it an even bigger hug and a huge hello to Raf Simons at everyone expects? I do hope so. I’m a fan of much of what Costa did at the runway line but I’m an even bigger fan…

Dior, Céline, Fendi win big for LVMH but are Vuitton, Marc Jacobs & DKNY soft?

Just a couple of days ago everyone was shaking their heads over Prada and wondering why the brand was doing relatively badly compared to its luxury peers. But on Monday it was (partially) vindicated when LVMH said its Q1 sales (ie the first three months of the year) were rather lacklustre. But don’t run away with…
