Skims taps Roberto Cavalli for luxury swimwear collaboration
Kim Kardashian 's Skims unveiled on Tuesday a new designer collaboration with Italian brand Roberto Cavalli, with the duo carving out a limited-edition swimwear drop for women steeped in retro glamour.
Launching under the Skims Swim banner, the new collaboration comes inspired by the "Euro Summer", and combines Roberto Cavalli 's bold, animal prints with the U.S shapewear brand's body-enhancing swimwear, alongside billowy chiffon cover-ups and other accessories.
All items are marked by three archival Cavalli prints: Fagianella, Light Zebra, and Tiger Face, with each piece crafted in Skims' supportive fabrics, across an inclusive size range from XXS to 4X.
"Unveiling such a luxurious collection with Roberto Cavalli is incredibly exciting. I've always admired the brand's exotic prints and bold energy, and bringing that vision to life through Skims Swim allowed us to create something truly unexpected and elevated,' said Kim Kardashian, co-founder and chief creative officer, Skims.
'We paired Cavalli's most iconic prints with our signature swim silhouettes to deliver a sexy collection that empowers every body to own swim season, no matter where they vacation.'
The accompanying campaign, lensed by photographer Nadia Lee Cohen, stars Kardashian herself sporting a cropped blonde wig wearing the collab's Scoop Neck One Piece in Tiger Face Print in one image, while the influencer-turned-entrepreneur's mother, Kris Jenner, also stars, in the same shot donning matching floor-length cover-up in a striking tiger print.
"We're thrilled to introduce the Roberto Cavalli and Skims collection to the world. Collaborating with Skims on this glamorous, bold collection of swimwear has been a remarkable experience. To me, Kim is a modern Marilyn Monroe, she is the pop icon, she inspires me so much.' shared Fausto Puglisi, creative director of Roberto Cavalli, which was founded by its namesake designer in Florence, in 1970.
'Our brands are iconic in their own distinct ways, and we've meticulously blended archival prints with modern, functional design to create a collection that embodies the essence of Italian luxury.'
The Roberto Cavalli X Skims collaboration will be available for purchase on June 27, in-store and online at Skims, at select Roberto Cavalli boutiques, and via top luxury retailers, including Printemps New York.

Napapijri appoints former Yoox managing director to president role
"This new chapter is an important milestone in my career. It offers me the opportunity to lead an authentic, design-driven brand that masterfully blends history and innovation. I'm truly honored to take on this role and contribute to Napapijri 's next phase of growth and global expansion," Valentina Visconti Prasca announced on Linkedin, in relation to her new role as president of the VF Group's lifestyle brand inspired by the outdoor world. Visconti Prasca, former general manager of the Yoox digital platform, is leaving Milan, Italy, for Stabio, Switzerland, the European headquarters of the American group that also owns The North Face, Dickies and Vans. The former head of Italy for Vente-Privée (Veepee) between 2009 and 2017 also reorganized and managed the Italian publishing company Betterly, part of the De Agostini group. In joining Napapijri, she joins a company in the midst of a major transformation within a group that has undergone extensive reorganization in recent months. Visconti Prasca takes over from Silvia Onofri, who left to head up the high-end Miu Miu brand in February. "In my 15-year career as an executive, I've had the privilege of working in dynamic sectors, from luxury fashion to cutting-edge digital industries. Each experience has deepened my passion for brand strategy, digital transformation, and building diverse, high-performance teams," she explained. "What excites me most about Napapijri is its bold and unexpected spirit. I look forward to collaborating with its talented team to push boundaries and create a lasting and meaningful impact."

Amazon tycoon Bezos arrives in Venice for lavish wedding
Bezos, the world's fourth-richest person, and his former television anchor bride-to-be were seen stepping off a water taxi at the Aman Hotel on the Grand Canal. The couple's three-day nuptials are due to start on Thursday, and the wedding ceremony is to be held at a secret location. Bezos, 61, and Sanchez, 55, are said to have booked out the city's finest hotels for a star-studded guest list rumoured to include Leonardo DiCaprio, Mick Jagger, Kim Kardashian, Oprah Winfrey and Orlando Bloom. Ivanka Trump, the oldest daughter of US President Donald Trump, arrived with her husband Jared Kushner and their three children on Wednesday afternoon. Rumours have swirled that the ceremony might be held at the Church of the Abbey of Misericordia, or at the Arsenale, a vast shipyard complex dating back to when the city was a naval powerhouse. At least 95 private planes have requested permission to land at Venice's Marco Polo airport, Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera said, with the pair reportedly inviting about 200 guests. The lavish celebration has sparked soul-searching in Venice, one of the world's most popular tourism destinations where some fear the arrive of so many A-list guests and their entourages will make life worse. Greenpeace highlighted the hypocrisy of spending huge amounts on partying in a fragile city "sinking under the weight of the climate crisis". Activists unfurled a giant banner in St Mark's square on Monday, with a picture of Bezos laughing and a sign reading: "If you can rent Venice for your wedding, you can pay more tax." Sanchez has also been criticised for saying more must be done to tackle climate change while also taking part in a space flight in April on a rocket developed by Bezos's space company Blue Origin.
