The Week in Fashion: Anya Taylor-Joy and Tate McRae Give Us Frostbite

Welcome to the Week in Fashion, Bazaar’s at-a-glance guide to what the industry is talking about.


Tate McRae Is Dreaming of a Skims Christmas

On Monday morning, one of coworkers asked me, How does Kim Kardashian manage to tap so many major stars? when the latest Skims campaign was released, starring none other than rising pop star Tate McRae. While it’s unclear just how big the talent budget is over at Skims, the athleisure and shapewear company continues to grow its list of celebrity endorsees, the latest of which includes the “Greedy” singer.

McRae teamed up with Skims to promote the brand’s holiday shop, in a campaign where she channels vintage Coca-Cola ads in a bright red bodysuit and boots while cuddling up next to a (presumably fake) polar bear.

“I love the holidays, and Skims always nails the perfect pieces for every occasion,” McRae said in a press release. “This year’s holiday collection is amazing! It has such a cute mix of comfy and romantic styles. I felt amazing in everything and can’t wait to wear it all season.”

The Skims Holiday Collection, which launched on October 30, includes over 150 limited-edition pieces of loungewear, intimates, matching sets, and more. You can peruse the new pieces here.

Matthieu Blazy Unveils His First Fine-Jewelry Collection for Bottega Veneta

Bottega Veneta

To say that Matthieu Blazy has left his mark on Bottega Veneta would be an understatement. Who else is putting guests in animal-shaped beanbag chairs at fashion shows and challenging sartorial rules in the same way as Blazy?

While the designer continues to share his playful vision with the world, his scope just expanded earlier this week, when he released his first line of fine jewelry for the brand.

Coming to select Bottega Veneta boutiques worldwide, the collection is composed of three different “families,” including Drop, Primavera, and Catena. All of the pieces were handmade in Vicenza, AKA “the City of Gold” and the home to Bottega Veneta’s first-ever atelier.

A press release from the brand stated that, “For Matthieu Blazy, this unrivaled craft heritage was the perfect context to realize his fine jewelry vision. Working closely with the city’s expert artisans – many of whom have over 25 years of experience in their craft – Blazy developed the collection to include both organic and sculptural shapes, with an uncompromising commitment to premium 18kt gold and the highest quality diamonds in color, clarity, carat, and cut.”

Bob Mackie’s Spectacular Designs to Go on Sale

Julien’s Auctions

It’s really felt like we’ve been transported back to the ’70s these past few weeks, with Cher and her longtime collaborator and costume designer, Bob Mackie, all over the news.

First, Cher acted as one of the headlining artists at the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, right as a selection of her famous outfits, designed by Mackie, went on display at the Rock Hall Museum. Then, the singer was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame soon after, where she was introduced by Zendaya, who paid homage to the legend in one of Mackie’s archival outfits.

And now, Julien’s Auctions and Turner Classic Movies (TCM) announced the newest chapter of their partnership, called “A Week of Hollywood Legends,” which will consist of auctions from the Collections of Mackie, Sir Laurence Olivier, and Dame Joan Plowright.

Mackie will specifically receive his own celebration with “Unmistakably Mackie,” a presentation of some of his most famous creations. On the auction block, there will be pieces worn by Cher on The Sonny and Cher Show and Judy Garland for her variety series, as well as looks more recently donned by Miley Cyrus, Pink, and Zendaya. A portion of the Cyrus dress sale will even benefit MusiCares®. Check out more about the auctions, which begin on December 10, here.

Lanvin Rounds Out Their Photo Project With a New Campaign

Two years ago, Lanvin unveiled their Character Studies series, a photographic project that captures intimate portraits of subjects as a way to add new depth to the house’s designs. Existing outside the traditional seasons, these campaigns are not your typical shoots.

Now, the oldest continually-operating French couture house has unveiled “Character Studies: The Final Chapter.” This latest installment was shot by Steven Meisel, with artistic direction from M/M Paris, and modeling from stars like Raquel Zimmermann, Bibi Breslin, Nanne Groenewegen, Maty Fall, Pierrick George, and Jun Yeong Baeck.

In a press release, the label explained: “In what has until now been exclusively black and white photography, color is carefully and sparingly introduced alongside the dynamism of silhouettes in movement, recalling the distinctive style of Jeanne Lanvin’s original sketches. An artistic impulse from nearly a century ago is reimagined in a bold register that speaks to a house in forward motion. As Lanvin welcomes a new artistic director, its foundational archetypes are illuminated at once with timeless allure and anticipation for the future.”

Anya Taylor-Joy Takes Us to a Tiffany Winter Wonderland

As Mariah Carey’s already declared, we’ve switched from spooky season to holiday season, and with that, the fashion world is leaning in, like Tiffany & Co., who just unveiled their new 2024 holiday campaign starring Anya Taylor-Joy.

The house ambassador leads “With Love, Since 1837,” a sparkly new initiative from Tiffany & Co. In the campaign film shot by Jonas Lindstroem, Taylor-Joy walks through a snowy New York City, rocking a black strapless gown and dazzling pieces from the maison. Meanwhile, she highlights the place where the fine jewelry company was born, asking viewers to follow her throughout the “city where love never sleeps.”

Taylor-Joy excitedly promoted the campaign on her personal Instagram, writing, “THRILLED to unveil my new campaign with @tiffanyandco 🙂 Epitomizing the unique balance of modernity and heritage Tiffany & Co. is known for, contemporary design is combined with classic Hollywood glamour in these Tiffany High Jewelry pieces. #JeanSchlumberger #TiffanyHighJewelry #TiffanyAndCo.”
