October 28, 2016October 28, 2016 by Editorial Team

Victoria’s Secret Angel Jasmine Tookes wears the $3 Million 2016 Bright Night Fantasy Bra designed by New York City-based accessories designer Eddie Borgo.

Victoria’s Secret Angel Jasmine Tookes will wear the Fantasy Bra for the first time on runway in the “Bright Night Angel” section at the 2016 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, which airs December 5th at 10/9 Central on the CBS Television Network. The Bright Night Fantasy Bra was designed exclusively for Victoria’s Secret by celebrated jewelry designer Eddie Borgo and hand-crafted with jewels by AWMouzannar, known for creations inspired by Middle Eastern tradition and antiquity with a contemporary feel.

Valued at $3 million, the 2016 Bright Night Fantasy Bra is adorned with over 9,000 precious gems, handset with diamonds and emeralds in 18-karat gold on a custom Beautiful by Victoria’s Secret bra. The bra took over 700 hours to create and weighs more than 450 carats.

“By capturing different shapes, objects and symbols in adornment, art and architecture, Eddie Borgo creates iconic jewelry and handbags that challenge our ideas of luxury. A spirit of timelessness and an appreciation of modern sculpture are captured in his work, and, as each collection evolves, so does Eddie’s unique ability to redefine our notions of modernity,” explained Victoria’s Secret.

A premiere for this year is the debut of Bella Hadid. Bella Hadid is walking the 2016 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in Paris—for the first time ever.

The Gigi Boot. Gigi Hadid x Stuart Weitzman high heel combat bootie in support of PoP

October 27, 2016October 26, 2016 by Editorial Team

Gigi Hadid is putting a personal spin on the lace-up bootie silhouette. The supermodel collaborates with Stuart Weitzman to create the Gigi Boot. The hiker-inspired high heel combat bootie was co-designed by the social supermodel and “reflects her sleek street style.”

The Gigi Boot is set on a stacked heel, boasts bold metallic eyelets accented by duo-toned laces designed to wrap around the ankle and is finished with a detailed collar. The bootie is available in three materials, so there are multiple options for her style squad: a classic-yet-modern nero soft croco-calf leather and two shiny chic metallics, including iron specchio and copper glass. The bootie comes in a signature Gigi Hadid box.

A short film directed by James Franco and starring Hadid, titled #doitright, will kick off the Gigi Boot’s global retail debut. Shot at Brooklyn’s iconic Gleason’s Gym, the film features Gigi as “The Champ,” as she jabs and moves around the boxing ring, dominating every opponent – all while wearing the Gigi Boot. Art imitates life in the film, as the boxing concept was inspired by Hadid’s real-life workout regimen – and, like the global advertising campaign, it captures her power, agility and gracefulness. The upbeat soundtrack is signed by Martin Solveig and Tkay Maidza.

“The Gigi Boot not only looks amazing, but helps do amazing things,” says Stuart Weitzman about the philanthropic element of this launch. Her design is a celebration of the Stuart Weitzman partnership with Pencils of Promise, a financial commitment this fall 2016 season to build three schools: one each in Ghana, Guatemala and Laos. With a focus on creating quality elementary education programs within the rural regions of developing nations, the Stuart Weitzman and PoP partnership takes a step closer to the vision that every child has the basic right to education.
