The Launch: Fashion News to Know This October
Fall is finally here, and with October comes the best of autumnal dressing, not to mention some runway firsts. At Paris Fashion Week, Jonathan Anderson’s Dior served as a love letter to 18th-century French grandeur, while Matthieu Blazy reinvigorated Chanel. It’s never too soon to take inspiration from the hottest new collections, and this season calls for prep with a dash of romance. Off the runway, things are heating up with the best drops, collaborations, and more. First up, Silvia Tcherassi partners with Kinga Lampert and the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF). From headline-making fashion news to can’t-miss releases, here’s everything you need to know this month.
