System Launches New Bi-Annual ‘System Collections'

These days 'fashion month' comes with such a torrent of social media coverage that everything blurs together by the end of the season. That's the problem System magazine says it's aiming to solve with a new bi-annual, System Collections, which will offer a 'time capsule' of key looks from the latest round of women's ready-to-wear shows, with context from key fashion critics and other industry insiders.
The concept isn't exactly new. For years, before social media rewired the way fashion fans consume the shows, major women's glossies published collections titles (Vogue still does in some markets like France), but these typically used existing runway photography and dropped when the clothes arrived in stores, many months after the shows.
System Collections' launch issue — which is centred around an 82-page portfolio of 'total looks' from the Autumn/Winter 2025 collections, shot by Mark Kean and styled by Vanessa Reid, with casting by Piergiorgio Del Moro — lands Monday, about ten weeks after the end of the last 'fashion month.' Future issues will drop as soon as four to five weeks after the shows end.
The new title, which has 30 pages of advertising in its launch issue, could prove a handy source of new revenue for System, which has won over industry professionals and fashion fans alike with its insidery editorial line and sharp art direction, but struggled to build a sustainable business in a fast-changing media landscape.
The Anglo-French magazine was reacquired by co-founders Elizabeth von Guttman, Jonathan Wingfield and Thomas Lenthal in December after the London-based entity which published the title was placed into liquidation.

Elizabeth von Guttman, Jonathan Wingfield and Thomas Lenthal have bought back the title after its publisher was placed into liquidation last month. System will launch its next print issue in January.

Progressive Chicago pol Stephanie Coleman accused of ‘prancing' around Nashville as home district flooded in storms: ‘Tiffany Henyard vibes'

A progressive Chicago politician is facing backlash for galavanting around Nashville as her district was 'devastated' by severe storms and heavy flooding. Alderwoman Stephanie D. Coleman (D) showed off in a glamorous yellow dress, gold jewelry, a bulky watch and an expensive Chanel vanity bag during her trip to the 40th Annual Stellar Gospel Music Awards. Coleman, 37, flaunted the dazzling ensemble in multiple social media posts, several including her twirling her dress around on the street and strutting through a hallway like a runway model. 7 Chicago Alderwoman Stephanie Coleman twirls around in her yellow dress and Chanel vanity bag in Nashville, Tenn., on Aug. 16, 2025. Instagram / stephaniedcoleman As she 'pranced' around Music City, the Windy City was ravaged by multiple thunderstorms over 17 hours between Aug. 16 and 17. The storms brought major flooding and devastating winds to parts of Chicago, including Coleman's Ward 16, which encompasses parts of the Chicago Lawn, Englewood, Gage Park, New City, and West Englewood neighborhoods. Her escape from the dangerous storms sparked backlash online from her frustrated voters, who were left dealing with flooded homes and streets. 'If you are a 16th Ward resident, are experiencing severe flooding, and you can't get ahold of your alderman to get help, we found Stephanie Coleman for you,' the Chicago Centarian, a Chicago-based blog, commented on X. 'Coleman is in Nashville, TN, filming herself prancing around, indulging in a pathetic fantasy she is a runway model,' it added. 7 Coleman strutted through a hallway showing off her outfit before the Stellar Gospel Music Awards.

'Tiffany Henyard vibes,' another wrote, referencing the ousted mayor of Dolton. One angered resident shared a video of flood water rushing through their closed front door and down to the basement, blaming the disaster on the local politicians too busy with international policy to fix the 'failed infrastructure.' 'Failed self-serving system and infrastructure … Instead of debating international politics and individuals' personal preferences, local politicians should prioritize addressing municipal concerns, including persistent flooding and the ineffectiveness of the billion-dollar deep tunnel project … and crime … just maybe,' the exasperated X user posted. Coleman has represented the 16th Ward on the city council since 2019 and was elected as Chair of the Chicago Black Caucus in 2023. She is a member of the Democratic and Chicago Progressive Reform Party.

The area received another inch of rain on Aug. 18. The highest rain total came around the Chicago suburb of Joliet, which was flooded with over 6 inches of rainfall, with 70 mph wind gusts being measured in Algonquin, Ill., northwest of Chicago. In her return to Chicago, Coleman provided several links for her constituents to receive flood assistance. 'I know many of you are still recovering from the devastating floods flashes. Please know that my office and I are here to support you,' she wrote on Facebook. Coleman's staff also organized for emergency flood kits to be handed out of her office. In the announcement video, Coleman – wearing a white and blue maxi shirt dress and matching sunglasses – acknowledged that her ward had been 'devastated by the recent floods.'

The White House now has a TikTok account

The White House has joined TikTok, the social media app that President Trump wanted to ban during his first term. Its first post shows clips of Trump in various events with Kendrick Lamar's track playing in the background. The New York Times notes that it references a popular video edit of Creed, a boxing movie starring Michael B. Jordan, on the app. In the TikTok post, Trump could be heard saying "I am your voice," while the caption reads "America we are BACK! What's up TikTok?" Trump's administration believes TikTok helped him win over young voters in the 2024 Presidential election, with the account he used to campaign having over 15 million followers. "President Trump's message dominated TikTok during his presidential campaign, and we're excited to build upon those successes and communicate in a way no other administration has before," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. The president wasn't always fond of the platform. He once vowed to ban the app in the US and signed an executive order to outlaw any transaction between the app and its China-based parent company ByteDance for national security reasons. TikTok's "data collection threatens to allow the Chinese Communist Party access to Americans' personal and proprietary information — potentially allowing China to track the locations of Federal employees and contractors, build dossiers of personal information for blackmail, and conduct corporate espionage," the executive order read. After taking office earlier this year, however, Trump quickly put a pause on the law that was supposed to ban TikTok in the US. He even delayed the ban a couple more times to give ByteDance more time to sell its US business. Trump previously claimed that a "very wealthy" group is poised to buy TikTok, but the administration has yet to reveal the identities of the people in it.

Dual-Oaks Winner Minnie Hauk Leads Yorkshire Oaks Field

Dual-Oaks Winner Minnie Hauk Leads Yorkshire Oaks Field originally appeared on Paulick Report. Dual Classic-winning heroine Minnie Hauk has been declared to take on Yorkshire-based Estrange in the Aug. 21 Group 1 Yorkshire Oaks over 1 1/4 miles for 3-year-olds and over fillies at York Racecourse. An automatic berth into the $2 million Maker's Mark Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf is on the line through the Breeders' Cup Challenge Series: Win and You're Breeders' Cup Challenge Series is an international series of 93 stakes races in 15 countries whose winners receive automatic starting positions and fees paid into a corresponding race at the Breeders' Cup World Championships, scheduled to be held Oct. 31-Nov. 1 at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club in Del Mar, Calif. Trained by Aidan O'Brien for Derrick Smith, Mrs. John Magnier, and Michael B. Tabor, Minnie Hauk comes off a 1 1/4-length victory in the Irish Oaks (G1) in July at The Curragh – completing the English-Irish Classic double, having won the Epsom Oaks (G1) the month daughter of Frankel showed her true class when sustaining a duel in the closing stages of the Epsom Oaks to eventually beat stablemate Whirl by a neck. This form has been heavily boosted with Whirl going on to win the Pretty Polly Stakes (G1) at The Curragh before winning the Qatar Nassau Stakes (G1) at Goodwood – claiming an automatic berth into the Maker's Mark Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf.'Everything has gone well, we think the track will suit her,' O'Brien said of Minnie Hauk. The odds-on favorite, Minnie Hauk, will take on Cheveley Park Stud's Estrange, from the same ownership that enjoyed success in the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf in 2023 with Inspiral. This will be the Yorkshire raider's first G1 contest, stepping up in class after winning both the Lester Piggott Fillies' Stakes (G3) and the Lancashire Oaks (G2) at Haydock in impressive fashion earlier this trainer David O'Meara has concerns for the ground and said: 'Good to firm will be no good for her. I'd be almost certain she wouldn't run on quick ground.'With the going currently good to firm at York, the team will be hoping for some rain ahead of Thursday to suit their contender. Trainer Ed Walker has declared TBT Racing's Qilin Queen after an impressive win in the Cygames Prix de Malleret (G2) at ParisLongchamp in July, having finished eighth behind Minnie Hauk in the Epsom Oaks in June. Kieran Shoemark has been booked for the ride after success in France, and with a small field, is keen on her said: 'She needs top of the ground which she looks like getting at York, and it's a good opportunity for her to get Group 1 Black Type, I suppose with Minnie Hauk, who is odds-on favorite. Fair play to Ed and the owners for taking the chance.'Mrs. John Magnier, Michael Tabor, and Derrick Smith also own Garden of Eden, who completes the field of four. The 3-year-old daughter of Saxon Warrior was last seen finishing ninth in the German Oaks (G1) earlier this month, having won the Ribblesdale Stakes (G2) at Royal Ascot in June on good to firm ground. As part of the benefits of the Challenge Series, Breeders' Cup will pay the entry fees for the winner of the Yorkshire Oaks Stakes to start in the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf, which will be run at 1 3/8 miles. Breeders' Cup will also provide a travel allowance for all starters based outside of North America to compete in the World Championships. The Challenge winner must be nominated to the Breeders' Cup program by the pre-entry deadline of Oct. 20 in order to receive the rewards.
