Monse Resort 2026 Collection
Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim are gearing up to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Monse in September. Their tightly edited resort collection looked back at favorite Monse-isms, both their own and those of their customers. The focus was on 'topsy-turvy staples.' A two-in-one puffer jacket was constructed from separate jackets joined at the waist (the bottom jacket was thinner to eliminate bulk). This same approach was used on colorblocked cardigans, a deconstructed fair isle sweater, a classic businessman striped cotton poplin shirt, and a two-toned denim jacket with a suede collar. The outerwear was certainly one of the collection's strongest elements. A trench-style cropped jacket in chocolate suede or black leather came with a double lapel and could quickly become a staple in anyone's closet; while another trompe l'oeil style, this time a hoodie 'underneath' a blazer but with the hoodie's scrunched arms layered over the jacket's sleeves, was especially successful in a black leather and heathered gray construction. Elsewhere, there were party-ready pieces in the form of slinky sequined gowns and a studded mesh shirt and easy flared pant—all in shades of chocolate-copper, which added an unexpected allure. Studs were also used to embellish knits, including a colorblocked turtleneck which, if you looked closely, turned out to be two turtlenecks in one. 'We didn't have the front of one and the back of the other, so we just married them,' Garcia explained. 'That's usually how the best little experiments come to life. It ended up being one of my favorite pieces.'

Border group hosts event to honor mothers in El Paso region
EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — The Border Network for Human Rights canceled what would have been its 12th rendition of its Hugs Not Walls event, shifted gears and had another protest event along the border this weekend in its place. BNHR canceled Hugs Not Walls after the federal government created a 'Texas defense area' associated with Fort Bliss for purposes of increasing immigration enforcement. So the group decided to hold what it called Madres de La Frontera: Love Without Borders on Saturday, May 10 at Paisano Park, 1800 W. Paisano in the border area near UTEP. About 200 people — evenly split on both sides of the border — attended the event, according to KTSM crews on the scene. BNHR called it a 'binational, peaceful protest to honor the courage and advocacy of mothers across our borderlands — and to denounce family separation and border militarization. The event will feature mothers, children, and families on both sides of the border, accompanied by mariachis, giant puppets, and remarks from community leaders.' Fernando Garcia, executive director for BNHR, said the event sent a strong message that families are still separated by the border. 'These separations still exist. It has not disappearted. To do this was a reaffirmation of that,' Garcia said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
