SKYPAD recently hosted its annual company-wide mid-year event, and it was a fantastic evening brimming with delicious food, engaging entertainment, and vibrant team camaraderie. Here's to a wonderful and fulfilling first half of 2024—let's aim to make the second half even bigger and better! The sky's the limit!

Fendi will be the opening show this time, joined by Diesel, JIL SANDER and HUGO BOSS in changing its traditional slot, while TOM FORD FASHION won’t stage a runway show following Peter Hawkings’ exit earlier this week.

Moncler is focusing on building its business in the Americas and China, as management expressed confidence in both markets.

Its wines and spirits will be served in hospitality areas, and it has sponsored top athletes, either at group level or through Vuitton and Dior. And let’s not forget the opening ceremony on Friday, in which those two brands should play a starring role. Read more here : https://lnkd.in/eBN-D_vT

Burberry is back for a second installment of its Classics edit with two new faces. The campaign, shot by Davit Giorgadze, features model Kai-Isaiah Jamal and Lennon Gallagher, the son of Liam Gallagher, the former lead vocalist of the rock band Oasis, and British actress Patsy Kensit.
