Jennie Becomes the Latest Face of the Chanel 25 Handbag

Jennie has often been referred to as the “Human Chanel,” and for good reason. The two go together like peas and carrots, and we got our latest proof this week, when the Blackpink member was named the latest face of the Chanel 25 handbag.

“The Chanel 25 handbag symbolizes freedom of movement,” Jennie said in a statement. “It adapts to my various situations and lifestyles, offering flexibility and comfort while allowing me to express my unique style in a different way.” The pop superstar was photographed with the bag in a variety of minimalist shots courtesy of David Sims.

This announcement was just made a couple months after Dua Lipa was announced as a face of the bag as well. Talk about good company.

Loewe’s First Major Brand Exhibition Opens in Tokyo

“Crafted World” is Loewe’s first major brand exhibition and it opens this week in Tokyo, acting as a “celebration of the house’s rich history, Spanish heritage, and commitment to the handmade,” according to the maison.

The interactive exhibit was conceived as a traveling exhibition, and it began in Shanghai back in 2024, before making its way to Tokyo—a significant location, given that Japan was where Loewe first expanded its storefronts beyond Europe.

The exhibit is supported through the Loewe Craft Foundation, and it was designed in collaboration with the studio OMA, while also being curated by Jonathan Anderson, who recently announced his departure from the house.

“Crafted World” opens tomorrow, March 29 in the Harajuku district at 6-35-6 Jingumae, Shibuya, and it will be open through May 11. You can visit the display from 9am-8pm each day.

Gigi Hadid Is a Work of Art for the Miu Miu Leather Goods Shoot

Gigi Hadid doesn’t need to wonder what it’s like to be a living piece of art, because that’s exactly what she was for the new Miu Miu leather goods campaign.

A favorite of the house, Hadid was tapped to model the brand’s beloved matelassé bags, all through photos (shot by Steven Meisel) that were inspired by classic high society portraiture of the 20th century.

However, to really give the portraits that artistic feel, they were all digitally “painted” by hand, giving them the appearance of having brushstrokes. Clearly, Hadid was meant to hang on walls.

In the Latest Martine Rose x Clarks Campaign, Everything Is Coming Up Roses

As the guest creative director for Clarks, Martine Rose was seemingly inspired by the expression “everything’s coming up roses,” which she used to name her third campaign for the brand.

The Spring 2025 collection also coincides with a significant milestone for Clarks, as the British shoe maker celebrates its 200th anniversary.

For this campaign, Rose was focused on the concept of “the shoes you want to keep on,” and the photographs, captured by Mariana Maltoni, celebrate this idea.

You can purchase the “Coming Up Roses” collection starting March 31 on the Martine Rose and Clarks websites. They will become available globally at select retailers beginning April 1.

A Surprise Y/Project by Marc Jacobs Collab Gets Released

Last June, the owner of Y/Project, Gilles Elalouf, passed away, not long before creative director Glenn Martens stepped down from his post. Sadly, the brand was not able to find a buyer, and this January, it was announced that the house was shuttering.

But fashion fans got a surprise this week when it was revealed that a new collaboration, called Y/Project by Marc Jacobs, would be released on March 25. The collection was apparently two years in the making, according to a post made on the official Heaven Instagram account, and it consisted of pieces like denim jackets, hoodies, shoulder bags, and more.
