Candice Swanepoel reveals collaboration with Nicole Benisti
Consider your winter warmers sorted! Candice Swanepoel has teamed up with Montreal-based label Nicole Benisti to front their offering of luxe statement coats for Fall Winter ’21, each with a rock n’ roll-inspired edge. The collection will include 18 pieces, including shearling coats, down-filled puffers, tweed trophy jackets, and chic layering must-haves in mohair and cashmere. Benisti said she was inspired by the South Africa-native’s “ethereal beauty” when conceptualizing the line. “I knew her training as a ballet dancer would transform the coats so eloquently…she embodies the strength of the modern woman I envision while designing the collection,” she said. The collection can be found at Bergdorf Goodman, Saks Fifth Avenue Intermix, and Farfetch.

Chloé is officially B Corp certified
Congrats are in order for Chloé. The French brand’s commitment to environmental and social responsibility has been recognized with a B Corp certification—the first luxury brand to achieve the status. Under Gabriela Hearst, Chloé began its journey towards a purpose-driven model in June 2020. In the past 18 months, the house has implemented a sustainability board, developed a transparent roadmap to sustainability, transitioned to lower impact materials, increased partnerships with Fair Trade-certified social enterprises, and launched a volunteer program, among other initiatives. In a statement, the brand said: “By becoming B Corp certified, Chloé reinforces its ongoing commitment to environmental and social actions. Rather than a final goal, this certification marks a new stage in our transformation towards a purpose-driven model, reinventing how we do business.”
