FACE

Alexander starts by preparing the skin with Prada Skincare, employing Prada Augmented Skin The Essence as the first step. This transformative 2-in-1 toner and micro-peel essence optimizes and renews skin texture while gently exfoliating to prepare skin for the steps that follow. Next, Alexander applies Prada Augmented Skin The Serum, a cream to water serum to even and refine the skin tone. She then applies Prada Augmented Skin The Cream, ensuring its complete absorption before application of the new Prada Refine Blurring Extending Primer. The face primer instantly blurs pores and minimizes the appearance of fine lines. As a final step, Alexander applies the new Prada Reset Rebalancing Setting Powder to harmonize the complexion routine.
 

LIPS AND EYES

For several looks, Alexander adapts the use of Prada Dimensions Eyeshadow to frame the eyes and emphasize the natural arc of brows for a delicate yet intriguing look.

To prepare the lips, Alexander applies Prada Balm in Universal U000 as lip primer to moisturize and enhance the natural look of the lips. For select looks, she uses the new Prada Balm in Astral Pink for a unique, glowy finish. Alexander then utilizes the Prada Monochrome range to curate a variety of unique beauty looks. She applies the Prada Monochrome Nude Lipsticks for a hydrating, soft-matte finish that flatters all skin tones. The result is a uniform, diffused lip that perfectly complements a modern nude face. A particularly bold look stands out, pairing a striking eye look, using Prada Dimensions Eyeshadow in Profusion 02, with a daring lip, using Prada Monochrome Hyper Matte in Ultraviolet P57 and Prada Balm in Astral Pink as a final touch for a shiny effect.

H&M Collaborates With Anamika Khanna And Brings Contemporary Indian Style And Craft To A Global Audience

H&M Collaborates With Anamika Khanna And Brings Contemporary Indian Style And Craft To A Global Audience

The new H&M collaboration with Anamika Khanna celebrates the Indian designer's signature eclecticism and flair for fusing glamour and craftsmanship with contemporary tailoring and luxe loungewear. Inspired by the sartorial codes of India, Anamika Khanna reimagines traditional silhouettes with a fresh and modern take. The collection comprises of womenswear, menswear, jewelry and accessories and will launch online at hm•com on September, 5th 2024.

 


"I've always felt Indian fashion gets lost when interpreted by the rest of the world. Often, our fashion — in terms of the culture, the heritage of craft and textile embroideries — is regarded as costume or not wearable or modern enough. Things have changed a lot, and this collection with H&M allows me to take something Indian and make it global and contemporary," said Anamika Khanna.

The eye-catching collaboration is replete with vibrant and unique styles, alive with vivid colour, pattern, and hand-embroidered embellishment. The womenswear collection is underpinned by an effortless elegance, with draped skirts, airy kaftans with asymmetrical and high-low hemlines, and silk pyjama ensembles. For men, traditional cuts are refreshed with graphic prints, painterly motifs, and carefree sportswear shapes.

Anamika Khanna's dazzling adornment featuring an array of intricate jewelry, including earrings, cuffs and necklaces cast from reclaimed metal and made locally in India, will also be available.

"Anamika designs clothes to encourage the wearer to express themselves. The silhouettes are fluid and draped, often in a way that can be personalized. The prints are also intriguing. She integrates many fully printed looks, combining traditional colour elements with something more graphic," said Ann-Sofie Johansson, Creative Advisor at H&M.

H&M Unveils A/W 2024 Collection with Star-Studded Cast

H&M Unveils A/W 2024 Collection with Star-Studded Cast

A new vision of style. H&M reignites its fashion sensibility with A/W 2024, starring Charli xcx, Arca, Lila Moss, Loli Bahia, Sage Elsesser and Sega Bodega.

A/W 2024 marks a refresh of H&M's fashion spirit. Full of rich tones, intriguing details and design-focused silhouettes, this season brings a very special collection for H&M. The A/W 2024 collection will be available in select stores worldwide and online at hm . com beginning September 12th.

"This collection is full of many special inspirations and quality materials. The leather, the knits, the sparkly separates – together the pieces showcase the strength of H&M's fashion ability. It's all about great clothes: real wardrobe icons. The campaign lets the fashion shine," says Eliana Masgalos, Womenswear Design Director, H&M.

Each piece within the assortment tells a unique story. The collection is inspired by the eternal glamour and versatility of mid-century design, the deep and sophisticated hues of wood and retro interiors, the lingering beauty of Hollywood cinema sirens, and the cycle of styles across key fashion eras.

The A/W 2024 campaign features an array of musicians, models, and cultural leaders. Created by photographer Sam Rock and director Albert Moya, it is a celebration of fashion, individuality, and personal style. The cast of contemporary icons, including Charli xcx, Arca, Lila Moss, Ajus Samuel, Loli Bahia, Wali Deutsch, Okay Kaya, Bibi Breslin, Alewya, Sage Elsesser, Sega Bodega, and Lux Gillespie, embodies H&M's commitment to embracing fashion and self-expression.

A mid-century mood is visible in the suiting, including boxy jackets and micro skirts. There are flashes of vintage-styles seen in the leather dresses and heirloom-style mesh dresses. Premium materials such as leather and suede add to the opulent feel of the collection. Knits include skirt suits in stretch wool, and must-have matching vests and shorts. The color palette features an array of browns, from caramel to deep mahogany. Oxblood and green add to the archival feel, complemented by black and white as accent statements. Accessories include heeled pumps with a round toe, studded loafers, and furry slip-ons. Bags are slick and structural. Jewelry ranges from minimal and angular to offbeat and earthy. Belts help complete the mood of assertive femininity, emphasizing shapes and lines.

For men, the mood is tailored classicism, matched with opulence. Tailoring in oxblood and cool steel tones create elevated statement pieces, such as a leather trench cut at a mid-length and a lurex tweed workwear jacket. Items combine a spirit of utility with individuality – a message central to the H&M ethos of great fashion for everyone.

"The A/W 2024 collection is all about the joy of great fashion. Music is an area where experimentation, individuality and flair have always thrived, so it makes perfect sense for H&M to be paying tribute to the intersection between style, sound and self-expression." - Jörgen Andersson, Creative Director, H&M  

H&M will kick off the global celebrations of its much-anticipated A/W 24 collection with a spectacular party in London. A multi-faceted celebration of music, fashion and individuality, the event will feature a special performance by Charli xcx and DJ sets by Jamie xx and Sherelle. In keeping with the spirit of inclusivity that defines H&M, the invite will be open to all, with customers able to sign up for the chance to attend via social media and through members competitions.
