Kaia Gerber & Halina Reijn Team Up for Sarah Burton's Debut Givenchy Campaign
You're no doubt fully aware that Sarah Burton is now installed as creative director of Givenchy. The revered British designer presented her highly anticipated debut collection for the storied French fashion house during Paris Fashion Week back in March – ultimately receiving mixed feedback from members of our forums. Fast forward four months, and Burton's first campaign is here for the upcoming Fall 2025 season. The recipient of The British Fashion Council's 2011 Designer of the Year Award enlists Kaia Gerber as the face of the Fall 2025 Givenchy campaign. The all-American Cindy Crawford mini-me teams up with Dutch film director Halina Reijn for the occasion (perhaps best known for Babygirl). 'The idea behind my first campaign for Givenchy was to focus on the friendship between a film director and an actor. I wanted it to celebrate the female gaze,' said Burton.
'We were waiting for this?' asked ellarchivist.
'We all knew Burton was a bad hire for Givenchy. But now we all really really know she's a bad hire at Givenchy,' declared 90sfan.
'You don't do things like this when trying to revive a stale brand. Sarah seems to be a nice woman, but she is a really weak creative director. Just choose interesting looks and book a good photographer. No need to be so pretentious,' Avonlea stated.
Tourbillions commented: 'This would have worked much better if they got Cynthia Erivo instead. She would have given it much more life, and Erivo has been wearing a lot of Givenchy already.'
'What a disaster,' voiced FashionPower while Drusilla used the word 'weak' to describe the campaign.

NBA icon celebrates 50th birthday wearing Norfolk State jersey
On June 7, 2025, NBA legend Allen "The Answer" Iverson celebrated his 50th birthday in fitting style-sporting a Michael Vick No. 7 jersey at a lavish after?party that doubled as a testament to sports, music, and HBCU culture colliding under one roof. The festivities were nothing short of remarkable. Hip Hop turned up when Baton Rouge rapper Lil Boosie delivered a high?energy set, igniting the crowd. Among the VIPs were boxing champion Terence Crawford and none other than Norfolk State's head football coach, Michael Vick. The former NFL star, who took the helm at NSU in December 2024, has already begun elevating the university's brand through his celebrity gravitas and wide network. Vick's hiring marks part of a broader trend in HBCU athletics, following trailblazers like Deion Sanders and Eddie George, in leveraging household names to boost visibility and recruitment. Norfolk State's athletic director, Melody Webb, emphasized that Vick's "resilience and personal journey" make him the perfect ambassador to attract talent and media attention. Meanwhile, Iverson-born June?7,?1975, in Hampton, Virginia-reflected on a career that defied expectations. Standing just 6?0? and 165?lb, he was a rare force in a league of giants. Nicknamed "The Answer," he amassed 11 NBA All?Star nods, a 2001 MVP award, four scoring titles, and over 24,000 career points, all with his trademark fearless style and cultural flair. After retiring in 2011, he continued shaping the game's culture and influence-later culminating in a statue unveiled near the 76ers' training complex in 2024. That evening, with music booming, HBCU jerseys front and center, and legends mingling, Iverson's milestone became more than personal-it was a celebration of intertwined legacies. As coach Vick builds Norfolk State's brand and Iverson's influence endures, the night stood as a vivid reminder that greatness spans generations, sports, and stages.
