Cinq à Sept expands with new boutique at Newport Beach

Fashion Network15-05-2025

New York-based women's ready-to-wear brand Cinq à Sept has announced the opening of a new boutique in Newport Beach, at the Fashion Island Mall.
Designed to embody a Parisian apartment, the 1,200-square-foot boutique blends warm neutrals with refined textures, including Venetian plaster walls, brass accents, wood finishes, custom furnishings and an artistic porcelain chandelier. It opens with the brand's Summer 2025 collection, featuring an array of dresses, separates, suiting and footwear embodying the brand's signature femininity.
The boutique marks the brand's third standalone retail location and its first in California, following its 2023 flagship debut in SoHo and a Miami opening in late 2024.
"California has always felt like home to us, given it's where our company was founded,' said Jane Siskin, founder and CEO of Cinq à Sept.
'Opening our first California store at Fashion Island Mall is a natural evolution—one that deepens the meaningful connections we've built over the years. We're excited to join the vibrant Newport Beach community and create a space where our customers can experience the world of Cinq à Sept.'
Founded in 2016, Cinq à Sept has built a loyal following with its modern classics designed to carry a woman from day to night. Most recently, in the fall of 2024, the brand expanded into footwear. Also on the horizon is a handbag collaboration with Scottish accessories brand Strathberry, set to launch in Fall 2025.
Looking ahead, the brand plans to roll-out several more brick-and-mortar locations in key markets.

HeyDude boosts visibility in France with Galeries Lafayette Haussmann pop-up space

HeyDude, acquired at the end of 2021 by US footwear brand Crocs, has increased its visibility with a new initiative on the French market. HeyDude's comfy, lightweight shoes have featured at the Galeries Lafayette Haussmann department store in Paris with two pop-up spaces: one on the first floor, within the men's footwear section, and another on the fourth floor, in womenswear. HeyDude's pop-up spaces are characterised by the colours blue and peach and by decorative elements with a patisserie theme, and showcase various models, like the NXT, a new-look, comfortable urban moccasin, the Austin Lift, a mule designed in collaboration with actor Sydney Sweeney (priced at approximately €85) and the minimalist, lightweight Comf shoes. 'This Parisian presence marks a new milestone in the global expansion of HeyDude, which continues to win over new markets with its DNA: Ultra-light, easy-to-wear shoes designed for everyday life, with a touch of fun,' said HeyDude. By featuring in the heart of Galeries Lafayette Haussmann, HeyDude, already present in France via retailers such as Besson, is putting the emphasis on its directional vibe. The brand also sells a children's line, and regularly drops collaboration with a tongue-in-cheek feel, for example with franchises like Ninja Turtles, SpongeBob and Smiley. HeyDude was founded in Italy in 2008 by Alessandro Rosano, and was acquired by Crocs at the end of 2021 for $2.5 billion. The brand, whose main markets are the USA and its birthplace, Italy, recorded a revenue of $824 million (€726 million) in 2024, down 13.2%.

Suspected mastermind of French crypto kidnappings arrested in Morocco

A 24-year-old Franco-Moroccan man suspected of masterminding a series of kidnappings targeting cryptocurrency entrepreneurs in France has been arrested in Morocco, French authorities said. The country has been shaken by a series of kidnappings and attempted abductions targeting cryptocurrency bosses and their families in recent months, prompting one prominent crypto entrepreneur to call on authorities to " stop the Mexicanization" of France. Badiss Mohamed Amide Bajjou was wanted by the French authorities and was the subject of an Interpol red notice for "arrest, kidnapping, false imprisonment or arbitrary detention of a hostage." The suspect was arrested in the northern Moroccan city of Tangier, according to a statement from the country's General Directorate for National Security carried by Moroccan state news agency MAP. "I sincerely thank Morocco for this arrest, which demonstrates excellent judicial cooperation between our two countries, particularly in the fight against organised crime," French Justice Minister Gérald Darmanin said on X. Darmanin did not release further details but reposted a report in French daily Le Parisien which said authorities believe that Bajjou might have organized a series of kidnappings and abduction attempts from abroad. A native of Le Chesnay, west of Paris, Bajjou is suspected of being one of the masterminds behind the high-profile kidnapping in January of French crypto boss David Balland and his partner, according to Le Parisien. Balland co-founded the cryptocurrency firm Ledger, which was valued at the time at more than $1 billion. Balland's finger was cut off by his kidnappers, who demanded a hefty ransom. At least nine suspects are under investigation in that case. Another ringleader? The French authorities are also probing Bajjou's possible involvement in the series of kidnappings or attempted kidnappings in May, Le Parisien said. In footage that went viral on social media, several masked men attacked a pregnant daughter of cryptocurrency entrepreneur Pierre Noizat, her husband and their child in broad daylight in the French capital's hip 11 th arrondissement in mid-May. The attackers fled after the family put up resistance and a local attacked the men with a fire extinguisher. In early May, attackers also abducted a crypto-millionaire's father, who was later rescued by police. According to Le Parisien, another Franco-Moroccan man in his forties is believed to be behind the kidnapping plots. He remains at large. The Morocco-based men are thought to have been recruiting youngsters online to carry out criminal offenses in France. French authorities have made a series of arrests, but the suspects detained until now are thought to have been those involved in carrying out the abductions or in logistics. Last week, French authorities charged 25 people aged between 16 and 23 in connection with the kidnappings and attempted abductions. Most of the suspects were born in France and others in Senegal, Angola and Russia. The crimes have become a major embarrassment for the French government and have sparked concern about the security of wealthy crypto tycoons, who have notched up immense fortunes from the booming business. In May, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau held an emergency meeting with cryptocurrency leaders, with the ministry announcing plans to bolster their security.
