Stunning Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Allison 'Ally' Mason took to Instagram to share a sizzling high-fashion look that flaunted her enviably long legs while in Saint-Tropez.
For the photo, she leans on a beach lounger, rocking an unbuttoned blue button-down shirt and a teensy tiny white skirt.
The professional model and USC grad — a Swim Search finalist to be in the next print issue of Sports Illustrated swim — posted 13 flawless photos and videos shot while she's been spending her summer on the French Riviera. 'Summer sur la Côte d'Azur,' she captioned the July 31 post.
'Just so beautiful!!!!' raved Leticia Martinez, who's in the same Swim Search.
'Stunning!' gushed photographer Brian B. Hayes. 'Gorgeous lifestyle images perfect for magazines.'
Part of the Swim Search relies on votes from fans. Mason's can find the link in her Instagram bio.
Mason, 25, has already hit the runway for the iconic magazine's fashion show to close out Miami Swim Week this past May 31. The VIP-only, sold-out show featured mostly models from this year's issue and took place at the super-glam W South Beach.
Also walking in the show were 2025 cover stars Livvy Dunne, Jordan Chiles and Lauren Chan, plus models such as Penny Lane, Xandra Pohl, Jena Sims, Ilona Maher, Katie Austin, Nicole Williams English, Ali Truwit, Camille Kostek, Achieng Agutu, Jasmine Sanders and Denise Bidot.

Maryam Nassir Zadeh Fall 2025 Ready-to-Wear Collection

Maryam Nassir Zadeh's fall collection is a reminder that how you wear your clothes is as important as what you put on. This season's lookbook, photographed in a Parisian apartment, is a kind of masterclass in defying convention and exciting the eye. See how cinching a belt inches above the waistline creates an unexpected proportion? Or how tights paired with lucite wedges are so wrong they're right? Nassir Zadeh makes little distinction between men and women; both genders tuck their pants into their boots and both are photographed in a delicious bubblegum-pink leather blouson jacket. In one photo a male model ties a cummerbund-shaped bi-color belt over a pair of luxuriously pleated pants; it's unexpected and effective in zhuzhing up a basic outfit. In Nassir Zadeh's world, spontaneity is encouraged and non-clothes become wearable—that suede fringe that's worn as a skirt is just a narrow band that you can wind around a neck, a wrist, or on top of another garment. One of the foundation pieces of this collection is a bustier top, à la '70s Saint Laurent Rive Gauche. There's one in orange embellished with shell discs that look like Necco wafers. By creating an off-the-shoulder neckline and accessorizing with animal-print boots, a tiered dress goes beyond boho. 'I think for fall there's a vibrancy and an element of uplifting celebration and illuminating something,' said Nassir Zadeh, who explained that the season was in many ways an homage to her beloved grandmother. The designer was actually bringing together memories from her life with her nana, and revisiting her own repertoire. 'The mix is so interesting and yet familiar,' she said. Also a bit off, to great effect. There are a lot of patterned silks of the kind Princess Diana favored in the '80s. These are used for ruffle hemmed skirts and a Juliet-sleeved top. The composition of some of the photos vaguely recall Sheila Metzner's work from that era too—but the MNZ magic is to elude categorization, all the better to let the spirit run free.

House Of Dior New York LaunchesThe LVMH-Led Brand's New Retail Concept

While the Dior Maison founded by Monsieur Christian Dior touts its home base on Avenue Montaigne in Paris where the brand was founded in 1947, the LVMH-owned marquee brand has just reopened and rebranded its New York flagship store on the Big Apple's premiere shopping corridor, 57th Street, which also harkens back to the brand's first US retail presence that opened in 1948 and was just 'steps away' according to a company release. Designed by house favorite architect Peter Marino, the new House of Dior New York location is the first in the world to house the designer labels' entire offerings, including women's, men's, beauty, and home, under one roof. Sitting at the corner of Madison, with the under-construction Louis Vuitton store just west on the 5th avenue corridor, the two flagships with their guaranteed impressive façades cement the Arnault family's retail might. Marino, for his part, leaned into his expertise in architecture and interior design and combined it with his in-depth knowledge of the French house, aiming for a customer experience that involves space, light, and a sensation of joy. "There is a French limestone façade and windows wrapping 57th St. and Madison Avenue, while inside we carved a double-height space to create this light and space. Instead of typical display windows, a garden was planted on this iconic corner referencing Christian Dior as a gardener and his gardens in Granville which are also part of Dior's brand DNA," Marino said via email adding, "There are VIP salons, an interior garden by Belgian landscaper Peter Wirtz, a café, Dior Maison, Dior Spa, dressed in works of art and unique and custom furniture. Dior is as passionate about art as I am. We have commissions from major artists such as Karine Laval, Jennifer Steinkamp, and Nir Hod, as well as unique artworks by Miriam Ellner, Robert Mapplethorpe, Jean-Michel Othoniel, Charles Jones, and Robert Polidori." With a pre-opening event allowing a sneak peek for VIP clients and press, guests discovered the four-story store which encompasses complete line offerings to include ready-to-wear and leather goods from Dior and Dior Homme collections, the last to be designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri and Kim Jones respectively, the fine jewelry offerings and Haute Joaillerie from Victoire de Castellane and the world of Dior Beauty to include the first Dior Spa in the US as well as the first to be housed within a store and Dior Maison accessible through a separate entrance on 57th Street. The expanded boutique also features the first Dior "Colorama"—the chromatic wall displays that, in this instance, feature 485 recreated styles from all categories throughout the brand's history—in the US and lines the circular staircases from the first to the second floor and the second to the third. While the previous store iteration separated the women's and men's stores, now they flow together, adjoined by the stairwell featuring the rainbow-like display. Throughout the store are fine art pieces Marino referenced, both existing and those created for the store, especially in a series of tableaus and wall-sized panels. For instance, on the main floor, a Niki de Saint Phalle sculpture accents a jewelry and small leather goods display case while a mother-of-pearl and rose quartz mural of a rose graces a spa salon. The color scheme for the women's space is a creamy white and gold with accents of silver and even rose gold. In contrast, the men's space is similarly rooted but features furniture in navy blue and grey with traditional Versailles parquet flooring throughout. The second and third floors feature VIP jewelry and ready-to-wear suites for women, with a first-of-its-kind in the US bespoke men's made-to-measure suiting service. Artwork includes pieces from Nir Hod and Tony Scherman, photographic works by Charles Jones and Robert Mapplethorpe, furniture crafted by Michele Oka Doner and Roland Mellan, Plum Blossom, a painting by Jean-Michel Othoniel, and River Blossom, an Eglomisé gilded panel and painting by Miriam Ellner. The fourth floor houses the magical retreat for the state-of-the-art luxury Dior Spa, which also features the complete line of Dior Beauty to include make-up, skincare, and fragrance, which Marino describes as "the ideal spa for myself or my friends." With its own entrance, Dior Maison is the first stand-alone boutique globally with its own dedicated space that features 35 customizable colors for its cannage and toile de Jouy dinnerware patterns, and a café setting featuring the Lily of the Valley dinnerware and glassware styles with pop-up courtesy of The Lowell Hotel serving coffee and tea. In a nod to the luxury group's sustainability efforts, the rest of the store's garden is peppered throughout the store via a flora and fauna delight made by Dior in house artisans from material scraps such as leathers, zippers, fringe trims and the brand's signature monogram fabrics to create flowers, trees and a Noah's Ark-worthy array of woodland creatures such as squirrels, foxes, a peacock, pigeons, butterflies and a mechanical woodpecker tapping away at the one of upcycled material trees. The brand's bee insignia, also a symbol for France, was bestowed upon guests as a memento of a slice of Granville in Midtown Manhattan.

Adanola gains strategic investment to fuel global activewear growth

Adanola, established in 2015 by Hyrum Cook, has positioned itself as a contemporary active lifestyle brand offering both activewear and wardrobe essentials. The brand is a fan favourite among celebrities including Kendall Jenner, Kaia Gerber, Veneda Carter, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. For the financial year ending 31 March 2024, Adanola reported a significant growth in turnover, reaching £57.11m ($76.10m), more than double the previous year's figure of £27.87m. Its pre-tax profit also increased to £18.98m, up from £8.31m in the prior fiscal. Adanola CEO Niran Chana said: "Adanola's ascent has been fuelled by staying disciplined as a women's product-first, active lifestyle brand. Across all areas of the company, we've curated the partners that support the vision of the brand. 'STORY3's deep experience for building consumer brands will be crucial as we continue to build sustainable, profitable growth across key markets and reinforce Adanola's position as a leader in the consumer sector. I'm incredibly proud of what the Adanola team has achieved to-date, and we're poised and ready for our next chapter." Adanola operates through a direct-to-consumer (DTC) model while maintaining a 'selective' wholesale network with partners such as Selfridges Group, David Jones, Ounass, Equinox, and Soho House. The brand strategically pairs an accessible price point with premium platform partnerships to enhance its brand positioning. Following this investment, Adanola plans to prioritise digital channels and selectively expand its retail presence, including own stores. STORY3 founder and managing partner Peter Comisar said: "Adanola has garnered uniquely strong and authentic relationships with consumers, and we believe the business is in the early stages of powerful global growth. We are honoured to serve as a trusted partner to Hyrum and Niran given our long track record of supporting founders and entrepreneurial executive teams." "We see extraordinary opportunities to support the Adanola team as it leverages its loyal customer base and revered products to continue to expand in its home UK market and within key growth markets including the US," STORY3 Partner Samir Shah added. In June last year, Adanola appointed Niran Chana as CEO to drive growth and lead overall strategy and execution. The brand opened its largest retail space yet with partner Selfridges London in the first quarter of the current fiscal.
