Lululemon opens first Italy store in Milan

Lululemon announced on Friday the opening of its first store in Italy, with the Canadian activewear brand opting for the fashion capital of Milan to make its debut in the Italian market. Located at Vittorio Emanuele II 24/28, the new Milan store spans approximately 5,700 square feet across two floors, showcasing the sportswear brand's men's and women's collections across yoga, running, training, tennis, and golf. The store design is inspired by a hybrid architectural concept that blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary materials. A key design element is the Lululemon Glide sculptural façade, a custom 3-D printed installation that draws inspiration from Lululemon's Define Jacket pattern. The jacket's flowy geometry is designed to expand across the storefront, "emulating the properties of fabric on an architectural scale," according to a press release. The Milan store opening is the latest step in Lululemon's international expansion. The brand currently boasts stores in key markets including the UK, Ireland, Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland. As previously announced, the company reiterated it plans to quadruple international revenue from 2021 levels by year-end 2026. Earlier this month, Lululemon revealed the opening of its first-ever store in a European airport, located in Heathrow Terminal 5, in London.

Lotto signs soccer prodigy Loradana Palette

Italian sports brand Lotto has signed its first-ever U.S. name, image, and likeness (NIL) partnership with rising soccer star Loradana Paletta. At just 14 years old, Paletta, a standout midfielder, is one of the youngest players on the U.S. Soccer Under-16 Girls National Team and competes with the NYCFC Youth U14 Academy Boys Team. "Lotto has a great fifty-plus year heritage in soccer and adding Loradana as our first NIL partner in the U.S. is the latest example of our dedication to the future of the sport and our continued growth in market as the country's soccer participation and interest is skyrocketing," said Jameel Spencer, chief marketing officer, fashion & athletic verticals, at WHP Global, which owns the Lotto brand. "At only 14 years-old, Loradana Paletta is everything Lotto stands for. Fearless, authentic, and driven by passion. She's a dynamic leader on the pitch and rewriting the story for young female athletes in this country, and we're proud to be a part of that. Her energy and attitude mirror our DNA, and she's already leading the next generation by example.' Lotto's U.S. presence has grown significantly in recent years, including a 2023 partnership with Dick's Sporting Goods to anchor retail distribution across soccer and racquet sports. Paletta joins a global roster of more than 500 professional athletes repping Lotto, including NWSL standout Sofia Huerta, MLS players Kellyn Acosta and Tim Parker, and broadcaster and former pro Stu Holden. "I'm honored to be the first NIL partner for such an iconic soccer brand like Lotto," said Paletta. "As I continue to develop my game, having gear I trust makes a huge difference—Lotto's Solista and Stadio cleats give me confidence and comfort every time I step on the field. I'm excited to help grow the brand in the U.S. alongside amazing athletes like Sofia, Kellyn, Tim, and Stu. Off the field, I also love Lotto's lifestyle pieces—especially the Brasil Select shoes and their unique, stylish apparel. Everything I wear from Lotto stands out and lets me express who I am, and I am so excited to be their partner."
