POOL COOL: Veteran men's fashion editor Robert Rabensteiner has found himself on the other side of the camera, modeling a capsule collection Swedish brand CDLP has done with Passalacqua, a luxury hotel on Italy's Lake Como.
Christian Larson, CDLP's cofounder and creative director, shot the campaign on location at the five-star property, showing Rabensteiner playing tennis, cooling his feet in the pool, and grabbing an aperitivo at the red marble bar.

The collection includes pool shirts, shorts, swimwear, T-shirts and a hand-illustrated silk scarf that's produced at a factory only 20 minutes from Lake Como. It's all on sale at the Passalacqua hotel, on its online boutique and on Cdlp.com.
CDLP is no stranger to hospitality, having already logged collaborations with Cuixmala, Hotel Grand Tremezzo, and Stockholm's Grand Hôtel.
Best known for his long tenure at L'Uomo Vogue, Rabensteiner is prized for his sharp taste, personal elegance and quiet advocacy of conscious fashion.
CDLP was founded in 2016 by Larson, a film director and photographer, and entrepreneur Andreas Palm. It initially specialized in men's underwear, T-shirts, socks, as well as items to wear by the pool, at home and for sports, and has since expanded into women's essentials, too.
The brand name is an abbreviation of the phrase 'un cadeau de la providence,' which translates as 'a gift from providence.'

‘Recession Glam' Seen as Top Trend for Asia's Beauty Market in 2025

A recent report from Euromonitor International has identified 'recession glam' as one of the latest trends that will reshape Asia's beauty and health market. 'With inflation front of mind, consumers' smarter spending is redefining the beauty playbook. The definition of premium is changing — less about price, more about perceived value and purpose,' according to Yang Hu, Euromonitor's Asia Pacific insight manager for health and beauty. More from WWD Lindsay Lohan Pays Homage to Her 'Freaky Friday' Roots With Ludovic de Saint Sernin Dress at London Premiere Ferragamo Maps Out Strategic Overhaul Amid Weak First-half Performance Phoebe Philo Signs Five Retailers for China Brick-and-mortar Push The trend is made evident by the rise of the fragrance category, 'which offers small indulgences at a lower price,' Hu said. Singapore and Vietnam — with 11 percent and 31 percent growth in 2024, respectively — drove fragrance sales in 2024. Euromonitor expects the category to expand 31 percent in market size within the next five years. Buying mini-size products, finding good deals, using fewer products in their beauty routine, using multifunctional products to save money and purchasing from 'cheaper but trustworthy brands' are some of the nuanced activities identified by Hu. Apart from 'recession glam,' Euromonitor identified 'clinical confidence,' 'healthspan plans,' 'loyalty immersion' and 'eco-evaluation' as major trends driving sector growth in 2025. 'Topical brands are taking the approach of 'similar to aesthetic surgery,'' Hu wrote in the report. 'Ingredients and methods used exclusively in aesthetic procedure, such as micro needles, threadlifting materials, PDRN and exosomes, are now driving a new wave of innovation in skin care product development.' 'Healthspan plans' refers to beauty supplements that tackle concerns traditionally linked to skin care products. 'It's not about antiaging, but slow aging,' Hu said. 'Beauty brands are pushing the boundary by offering UV protection, anti-oxidant support, ingestible forms of retinol and hyaluronate acid ingredients, such as Bloomage's instant coffee products.' Hu said that sustainability in beauty might not be the most relevant trend in Asia, but certain categories are experiencing a performance boost that reflects the 'eco-evaluation' trend. 'For example, fragrance, hair care and skin care are some of the categories with products performing better without sustainability claims,' Hu said. With $183 billion in total sales, Asia-Pacific accounted for 31 percent of the global beauty and personal care market, according to the market research firm. Despite 1.4 percent growth in 2024, the market is expected to rebound and sustain a 3 percent annual growth rate over the next five years. Region-wise, Southeast Asia, excluding Singapore, will lead the pack with 5 percent annual growth over the next five years. Skin care remains the largest category, accounting for half of Asian markets. Even as e-commerce penetration continues to rise, which grew from 19 percent to 30 percent in the last five years, specific offline channels, including warehouse clubs such as Sam's Club, convenient stores and variety stores, such as Miniso, have been making significant inroads in the beauty market. 'This trend suggests that consumers continue to value offline experience, while still expecting cost-effective options,' Hu said. China's beauty market, a critical player in the global industry, saw a 2 percent decline in 2024, dipping to $75 billion. Despite the slowdown, pockets of growth emerged in niche segments such as dermacosmetics, sun care and skin care products tailored for children, signaling shifting consumer priorities. 'Feedback from industry players indicate that the Chinese beauty market is highly driven by strong marketing, so as long as the beauty brands have the willingness and capital to invest in marketing, there is significant potential for market stimulation and renewed growth,' Hu said. On the player side, the market remains consolidated with leading companies, including L'Oréal, P&G, Estée Lauder, Shiseido and Proya. Brands including Kato-kato, Hapsode and Komfymed also bucked the trend and sought growth in 2024. Neochild and Bodorme were also singled out as two fast-growing child skin care brands. 'Although the birth rate in China is declining, the premiumization of baby products is enhancing,' Hu noted. Best of WWD Which Celebrity Brands Are Next for a Major Deal?

These 30 Products May Be Unexciting, Ordinary, Or Just Plain Mundane — But Somehow They're Still Life Changing

A pack of surprisingly absorbent Swedish dishcloths — the ultimate substitute for those endless rolls of single-use paper towels. They can absorb up to 20 times their weight in liquid; plus they're fast-drying (which helps prevent odors), machine washable, and can be reused over and over! Monday Haircare dry shampoo perfect for those chaotic mornings when washing your hair just isn't an option. It absorbs oil while giving your locks a sneaky keratin boost, ensuring they stay smooth and frizz-free. And! It leaves your mane with a delightful gardenia scent. Beauty enthusiasts are buzzing about it being a wallet-friendly alternative to brands like Batiste, Living Proof, and Amika — so you can finally stop splurging. A cult-fave Panoxyl foaming wash formulated with 10% benzoyl peroxide, the highest over-the-counter concentration you can buy. It's also antimicrobial, which means it's fighting off the bacteria that causes acne in the first place and preventing new breakouts from forming. A tube of Nerdwax that'll add just the right amount of grip whenever the bridge of your nose decides it wants to cosplay as a slip-n-slide for your sunglasses. This wax stick makes sure your specs stay put whether you're running to catch a bus, nodding along in a meeting, and everything in between. A pack of SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes if you find yourself wiping away beads of sweat the moment you step outside. With these convenient bad boys, you can make it through the day feeling fresh and dry. An oscillating tower fan that's apparently so good, one reviewer crowned it "THE GLACIER." This fan has six different speeds and can blow cool air up to 30 feet away. Plus, it comes with four modes to choose from, so you can customize the breeze just how you like it, and reviewers rave about how incredibly quiet it is. No more annoying fan noise while you're trying to relax or sleep! A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper so you can fly through making dinner because (in my opinion) prepping produce is the most time-consuming part. This handy gadget allows you to chop, slice, and julienne your veggies in record time. This chopper also features a built-in storage container to prevent messy countertops. A pair of reusable silicone nipple covers because the last thing we want is you in the chilly conference room recreating Janet Jackson's Super Bowl wardrobe malfunction during that big presentation. These little lifesavers last up to 12 hours (perfect for bra-free days), offer ultra-discreet coverage, and are totally waterproof. Drizzilicious mini rice cakes that are so delicious, I literally have bags throughout my house *and* in my car. These delightful bites are vegan, gluten-free, and crafted with plant-based ingredients like chia, quinoa, and flax. They have a satisfying crunch that's somehow soft, and a sweetness that hits just right without going overboard. The Pink Stuff's new "Sqeezy" set taking their legendary cleaning paste to new heights with the help of a versatile cleaning sponge. The stubborn layer of grease on your pans from last night's dinner — gone! The mildew on your shower walls that's been mocking your scrubbing efforts for weeks — history! The Pink Stuff is so good at its job, reviewers have called it everything from "a miracle" to "witchcraft." A set of ingenious double shower curtain hooks so you never have to struggle with those old-school "pop off" ones ever again. These hook rings are an absolute game changer, allowing you to take your shower curtain and liner on and off with ease. These'll help smooth out at least one wrinkle in the fabric of adult responsibilities! (Like seriously, where were these when I was in college?) A set of breathable bamboo bed sheets in case you enjoy snuggling all night with your S.O. but do *not* enjoy feeling like you're sleeping on a bed of coals because your partner is a human heater. This soft, moisture-wicking material will prevent sweaty nights so you can still have a good night's sleep without waking up in a puddle of sweat in the morning. And a set of two cooling pillows so you can enjoy the same blissful sleep that you got on vacation at that luxurious resort. This super soft pillow holds its shape with memory foam, and no matter if you're a side sleeper or a back sleeper, it'll provide the comfort you need to be knocked out in minutes. A manual flossing toothbrush with special bristles to clean in between your teeth and get out all those popcorn kernels and sesame seeds from your everything bagel, leaving you feeling like you just left the dentist. And if you have sensitive teeth, no worries, because reviewers say these bristles are super soft. An oral rinse so you can eat garlic and onions to your heart's content and no one will know. This mouthwash helps control bad breath for 24 hours and doesn't burn like Listerine. And just between you and me, it's so good, it's worth the morning swish dance. A fast-acting, refillable hidden fly trap that not only catches house flies, fruit flies, moths, and gnats but does it all with a little light magic — luring those pesky bugs from up to 400 feet away so you don't have to waste time and money scattering traps all throughout your home. The sticky side is cleverly hidden on the back, so you won't have to face a gross bug graveyard every time you turn on the lights. A weekly meal planner you can use to streamline grocery shopping, slash bills, and save a ton of time. It's like having a culinary wingman, especially for those days when you just can't deal with the mental gymnastics of meal planning.

Plus, it hooks right onto your keychain, so it's always there when you need it. A set of family-friendly pastel "unbreakable" deep plates so practical, they basically pay for themselves. Made of wheat straw fiber, these lightweight plates won't break when you (or a kid) accidentally drop them, and they have a thickened bottom that's anti-slip. They're durable enough for the dishwasher and will survive *all* of your moves, and they come in the cutest colors that'll make every meal feel special! A pair of compression gloves to bring some relief to your sore, aching hands after a long day of typing reports. These gloves are breathable so you won't have to worry about your hands getting sweaty after using them for an extended period of time. Medicube's "Zero Pore" Pads that might just seem like another step to add to your skincare routine, but trust me when I say they're something you didn't know you needed. These dual-textured pads contain lactic acid and salicylic acid, and they're designed to help control excess sebum while exfoliating dead skin, refining pores, and keeping your glow game strong. ✨ A clever Pikk-it tool created to reach into your vacuum rollers and remove all those stubborn hair clumps that are stealing your vac's mojo (and suction). Reviewers also use this to remove hair and lint from the bristles of their hairbrushes! A set of Snug Plugs if you're tired of your hair dryer plug constantly slipping out of the bathroom outlet. These nifty little contraptions are designed to create a secure and snug fit between outlets and plugs, ensuring they stay exactly where you want them. A six-pack of XL wool dryer balls you can throw in with your laundry to speed up the drying time — and prevent you from restarting the cycle for a second, third, or (if you have an old dryer like me 😭) fourth time. They also prevent your clothes from coming out covered in that annoying fuzz or dealing with little static shocks when you touch something. Plus, they naturally fluff and soften items, so you can wrap yourself in that cozy sweater or those plush towels straight out of the dryer! A pack of anti-slip pads to save your ~sole~ from the embarrassment of slipping and sliding in public when you strap on your new heels for the first time. The grippy, adhesive pads stick onto the bottom of your shoes for added stability, and the discreet design will keep everyone's eyes on your fabulous new pumps (instead of wondering whether you stepped in something). A quick-drying mesh bath toy storage bag parents can't stop raving about because it makes bathtime cleanup a breeze. It works like a net, letting you scoop up all the toys from the bathwater. Hang it to dry afterward, and your little one's toys will be ready for the next splashy adventure. A pack of headrest hooks to bring organizational bliss to the otherwise chaotic domain that is your car. These little gems can hold everything from your purse to those grocery bags that always seem to topple over, leaving a free-for-all of rolling onions and lemons on the floor. These are also perfect for the kiddos' backpacks and sports bags! A pack of teeth-friendly silicone pouch lids, your sidekick in the battle against messy mealtimes. This little gizmo is equipped with a genius flow-control valve that ensures your eager little self-feeder can dive into their food without turning it into a playful yet messy art project on you, the table, the chair, and themselves. A small but mighty portable air compressor ready to save you (and your flat tire) when in a pinch. This gadget will get the air pumped back up in about a minute, and it features real-time pressure monitoring so you don't have to guess if you've got enough in your tires. Added bonus: It has its own built-in LED light, so you can see what you're doing if this unfortunate turn of events happens at night. A memory foam seat cushion designed with orthopedic gel to spare your lower back and sciatica from those long hours glued to your work chair. This seat cushion promotes correct posture, giving more support to the lower back and making it a little more enjoyable to sit for extended periods of time.

Carl Friedrik "Returns to its Roots" with an All-New Leather Accessories Collection

Summary: Luxury travel goods makerCarl Friedrikhas introduced its very first all-leather accessories capsule – a two-piece release that it describes as a 'return to its roots.' Founded in 2012 by Swedish brothers Mattis and Niklas Oppermann, the London-based brand's latest silhouettes – the 'Foley' cardholder and 'Clifton' passport sleeve – form part of itsrecently released'Sonder' collection. Both items are crafted from high-quality semi-aniline bovine leather with a full-grain finish – a material that's become a Carl Friedrik signature. The Foley, a vertical cardholder with a 'subtly curved silhouette,' holds four cards and features a 'hidden' side compartment for storing notes or receipts. Complementing it is the Clifton, an elegant all-leather passport sleeve that includes a discreet additional pocket — or, as the brand describes it, an 'extra back pocket' — just large enough to hold paper travel documents like a boarding pass. Additionally, both silhouettes feature smooth vachetta leather accents – small design details that help to elevate and refine each piece. The new products are available in three colors – 'Black', 'Chestnut' and 'Dark Olive' – that were chosen to complement the color palette of the aforementioned Sonder collection. 'Our approach to designing small leather goods is the same now as it was over a decade ago,' says Mattis Oppermann, adding that 'minimalism with purpose, skilled craftsmanship and fine materials are always to the fore.' Both the Foley and Clifton are available now via Carl Friedrik'swebsitepriced at £125 GBP / $165 USD each.
