Why aren't spring and summer fashion on store shelves? Blame coronavirus

Gambar
As shoppers begin to set foot in Corridor apparel stores large and small, looking for the latest in spring or summer clothing, they might notice many of the shelves and racks filled not with bright prints but with much of the same winter merchandise that was on display this past March. "We place orders in September for February, March and April," explained Catherine Champion, owner of Catherine's Boutique, with stores in Iowa City and the Quad Cities. "The vendors take pre-orders and then they produce. Most of the vendors have pushed out the next season to August. We placed our orders for fall clothing in February. Anything that was not in production has been edited" — that is, some quantities have been reduced. "While we would normally receive fall apparel in July and sell it, we are not going to receive it until August," Champio...

Gambar
In news that will help restore your faith in humanity, Dolly Parton and RuPaul's Drag Race superstar Nina West have combined powers to launch a capsule fashion collection that will benefit two very important causes. The dynamic duo just announced their "Kindness Is Queen" line of apparel and accessories, with proceeds supporting children's literacy and LGBTQ+ youth. As you might expect, the collection is like a literal ray of sunshine. It includes three items for purchase — a vintage-style t-shirt, an enamel pin, and a tote bag — which all bear retro-cartoon-likenesses of Parton and West. As West explained, the project was born out of their mutual desire to foster a message of inclusivity and empathy. "When I approached Dolly with the idea for a collaboration between the Nina West Foundation and Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, I was looking for an opportunity to continue to spread my message of kindness while building on the work I've done through my ...

Gambar

Starbucks Is Addressing the Black Lives Matter Movement—By Designing a T-Shirt

Gambar
Starbucks is currently on target to becoming a $28.2 billion company this year. With that sizable amount of wealth comes serious power and influence, and yet—when it comes to the Black Lives Matter movement that has been amplified by protests across the nation, demanding justice for Black Americans who have been victims of racism and police brutality—the coffee chain conglomerate has struggled to find its footing. It all began back earlier this month, when, as reported by Buzzfeed, the company banned its baristas and employees from wearing any sort of T-shirt, pin, or accessory that mentioned Black Lives Matter. A company memo stated that any such gear could be "misunderstood and potentially incite violence." As soon as the BLM clothing ban became public knowledge, the backlash against Starbucks poured in. "I just saw Starbucks say that their employees can't wear anything Supporting the Black Lives Matter Movement. And just like that, America truly will run on dunkin...
