Tommy Hilfiger and Indya Moore team up for non-gendered collection
Non-binary model, activist, and Pose star Indya Moore and all-American brand Tommy Hilfiger are back together again for another capsule! Touting a genderless, size-inclusive offering, Tommy x Indya is the label’s Summer Pre-Fall offering, which comes as an extension of Tommy Hilfiger’s People’s Place Program—a trinity platform that aims to advance representation in fashion. The capsule marks Moore’s first venture into fashion design, though they have previously worked with the likes of Gucci, Dior, and Elle as a model. As for the capsule, inclusivity was top of mind—from conception to production. The duo even went above traditional metrics systems, expanding the size offering to include a 3X (the full range for the capsule is XXS – XXXL), as well as adding additional buttons to shirts and utilizing pliable fabrics on the collection, which pulls inspiration from the label’s archives. Even the price tags are inclusive, starting at $29.90. Tommy x Indya will be available for purchase beginning Tuesday on Tommy Hilfiger and at select locations in Europe.

Burberry’s latest campaign has Naomi Campbell front and center
For its new TB Summer Monogram Collection, Burberry tapped supermodel Naomi Campbell to star in its sensual campaign. Inspired by the balance between honoring the past while looking ahead to the future, Riccardo Tisci wanted to bring this collection to life with someone who embodied that same transcendental energy, a timeless classicism, and the vitality of the season. Naturally, good friend Naomi Campbell was first to come to mind! Shot by Danko Steiner, the campaign conveys the house’s unique duality—case in point: Campbell stands tall on sharp-edged pedestals while water flows freely around her. Adding to that same duality, the campaign fuses CGI with still imagery. The summer offering comprises bright hues, lightweight pieces, and founder Thomas Burberry’s initials strewn about. Available online and in select Burberry locations, the collection will be available beginning July 16.

Alexa Chung designs new bags for Mulberry
To commemorate its 50th anniversary, as well as the 10th anniversary of its infamous ‘Alexa’ bag, Mulberry has called upon none other than fashion icon, designer, and TV personality Alexa Chung herself. The U.K. fashion house, known worldwide for its collection of leather goods, tapped Chung not only for her name, but also for her undeniably cool style. For the collaboration, Chung designed an offering of ’70s-inspired styles: a large-and-in-charge carryall aptly dubbed ‘Big Guy’ and a compact clutch dubbed, you guessed it, ‘Little Guy.’ Chung’s influence is obvious, too, with her humor shining through in the bag names and her style is evident in the masculine tailoring meets vintage appeal of the bags. Get your hands on a Little Guy and a Big Guy in stores or online.
