Etro names new creative director

There’s new blood at the traditionally family-helmed brand Etro. The Italian luxury house has named Marco De Vincenzo as the new creative director for the women’s, men’s and home collections, effective June 1, 2022. De Vincenzo’s debut will take place in September during Milan Fashion Week and Veronica, Kean, and Jacopo Etro will continue to be involved in the development of the brand’s strategy in partnership with its owner, the private equity firm L Catterton. (As noted by Vanessa Friedman of the New York Times on Twitter, L Catteron is backed by the Arnualt family.) A graduate of the European Institute of Design in Rome, De Vincenzo’s resume includes a longtime string at Fendi on the accessories side of things, before he launched his own eponymous women’s ready to wear brand in 2009. Bonne chance!

Move over Zendaya! They’re available now too, ahead of your summer vacanzas, ranging between $1,600 to $3,200.

Romee Strijd is soon to be a mom-of-two. The 26-year-old shared the news that she’s pregnant with her and fiancé Lauren van Leeuwen’s second baby. “Soon we will be a family of 4,” the Dutch model said, “Can’t wait.” The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Mint, in December 2020. The former Victoria’s Secret Angel has also spoken candidly about her struggles to conceive after being diagnosed with Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). At the time, she said: “Being a mom … is my biggest dream. I was so scared that I would never be able to because I got told it was harder to get babies in a natural way.” Congrats!
