It should be illegal to have unpaid internships, ESPECIALLY if you’re a luxury brand. Such a bad look.

DO THE RIGHT THING

Could not agree more! Justifying it as college credit is insufficient. The status conferred through the inherent exclusionary aspect of luxury fashion, tied exclusively to class, increasingly feels like the least interesting kind

Hopefully the McKinsey alum jam comes out better than their plan to reduce violence in Rikers.

They also advised the Sacklers on how to drive more opioid prescriptions! Good stuff

What’s probably even better is the less exciting things they’ve failed at while charging millions. Love big consulting firms.

is Mulaney's show a joke? I've turned it on twice (wasn't it on last year?) and was cringing the whole time. awk levels on a trillion.

Allbirds was public?! LMAO. shorting that dork factory was a huge missed opportunity

I think one of the fathers throwing those $50k birthday parties was sitting behind me at GlennGary Glen Ross on Tuesday night loudly crunching ice throughout the first act. The social ineptitude seems similar to me.

Oh NO

I gave him a few hostile glances over my shoulder. That didn’t work. To tell him to stop would have created more noise.

Sorry but everything about “Jamangasett” feels like a forced DTC 2017 Sqirl BA Test Kitchen era dupe… but maybe that’s why it will work?

(still love Sqirl)

Don’t be sorry! Speak your truth Matt

Allbirds should have diversified its product lines way sooner. Hoodies blankets bedsheets whatever. And they had to do something to keep the sense of scarcity instead of going for ubiquity turned meme. Self-fulfilled prophecy of being a one product company.

The sf standard is worth the sub either way—the reporting is excellent! I’m hot to see a tote in the wild, will report back if so

If I get that tote it’s my new spring bag

Shoutout to Bronwen Wyatt for being on the Easter Lamb tip for a minute! If anyone's looking to make their own she has a whole class on the matter. 🐑

I get excited about popping one in my living room with a glass of rosé.

Unfortunately - it does seem like a lot of « curated » shoppy shops do source from Ali baba which had the effect of curbing my own shopping when i noticed it myself

Expand full comment

The only solution is to blow our own glass

Maybe Papa Arnault is Nostradamus and got Jr. the Loro Piana post to avoid the issues for their alcohol brands facing the threat of 200% tariffs

My dad was texting me about champagne prices pre-my wedding this morning

Clearly a lot of shit is bound to change on the daily and the absurdity of 200% somehow has to get checked… but… Trump is a known hater of drinking anyway then throw in that the head of every EU country is a Trump hater - not a recipe for optimism. Try Roederer Estate made here in Anderson Valley CA but from the house that makes Cristal
