Moncler runway show to take place in Aspen next January

Moncler runway show to take place in Aspen next January

Fashion Network7 days ago
The United States is more than ever an essential market for luxury brands, where they continue to invest with boutiques and events. One example is Moncler, which is organizing its very first fashion show in the U.S.
After Saint-Moritz and Courchevel, the Italian high-end down jacket brand has chosen Aspen, the chic Colorado ski resort, to present on January 31 the new fall-winter 2026/27 collection of Moncler Grenoble, its most technical line "designed for all aspects of mountain life, both on and off the slopes."
As usual, the label will be orchestrating a high-impact event bringing together "an international community around an extraordinary outdoor fashion show, echoing Moncler's alpine DNA," it said.
The brand will certainly be able to count on a star-studded line-up, as at its last stop in Grenoble in March, where Anne Hathaway, Adrien Brody, and Jessica Chastain, among others, were present, to whom it promises "a weekend of immersion in the snowy scenery of Aspen."
In 2008, Moncler opened its very first store in the United States in Aspen. Today, the brand wants to increase its visibility on the American continent, where it is much less represented than in other markets. Its sales there represent 14.2% of its total sales, compared with 50.6% for Asia and 35.2% for EMEA.
Sales in the region came to 147.9 million euros in the first half, up 1% at constant exchange rates on the first half of 2024. But in the second quarter, the increase was 5% "with an acceleration compared to the previous quarter, thanks to an improvement in the direct sales channel".
Moncler, which has 47 boutiques in the United States, has reviewed its wholesale distribution network there, tightening its ties in particular with Saks Global.
In New York, where it has two directly operated addresses - on Prince Street and Madison Avenue - the down jacket label is preparing to inaugurate its largest store in the world in early 2026. A two-storey, 2,200-square-meter space at 767 Fifth Avenue, in the General Motors Building. In the first half of the year, the company opened a boutique in Philadelphia's King of Prussia shopping center and relocated its South Coast Plaza store to Costa Mesa, California.

Italian regulator hits Shein with 1 million euro greenwashing fine

Italy's competition authority (AGCM) imposed a 1 million euro (1.16 million dollar) fine on China-founded fast fashion online retailer Shein on Monday for misleading customers on the environmental impact of its products. This is Shein's second financial sanction by a European competition authority in little more than a month, after France fined the company 40 million euros on July 3 over fake discounts and misleading environmental claims. The Italian fine was imposed on Infinite Styles Services Co. Limited, a Dublin-based company that operates Shein's website in Europe, following a "greenwashing" investigation by AGCM launched last September. Shein did not immediately respond to a request for comment. AGCM said the environmental sustainability and social responsibility messages on Shein's website "were sometimes vague, generic, and/or overly emphatic, and in other cases omitted and misleading." Shein's claims on circular system design and product recyclability "were found to be false or at the very least confusing", and the green credentials of its 'evoluSHEIN by design' collection were overstated, the regulator said. Shein promotes the 'evoluSHEIN by design' collection as clothes made using more sustainable and responsible manufacturing. AGCM said consumers could be misled to think that the collection was made with eco-friendly materials and fully recyclable, "a fact that, considering the fibres used and currently existing recycling systems, is untrue". The authority also took issue with Shein's "vague and generic" commitments to cut greenhouse emissions by 25% by 2030 and to net zero by 2050, noting they contradicted its increase in emissions in 2023 and 2024. The Italian regulator said its overall assessment was influenced by an "increased duty of care" falling on Shein, "because it operates in a highly polluting sector and with highly polluting methods" such as fast and super-fast fashion. AGCM is in charge of consumer protection as well as competition. When AGCM's investigation was launched last year, Shein said it was "ready to cooperate openly with relevant Italian authorities, providing the necessary support and information to address any inquiries". Founded in China, Shein is known for its cheap tops and dresses. Its treatment of workers and environmental record came under increased scrutiny last year after reports that it was planning to list its shares in London.
