Last night Dove celebrated the launch of it’s latest Clinical + Care collection with a fun and feminine comedy night! Dove brought together a lineup of talented comedians to share their sweatiest stories in the spirit of sisterhood and women empowerment for Women’s History Month. The lineup included host Hannah Berner alongside fellow comedians Amber Autry, Sydnee Washington and Daniela Mora. Each comedian shared hilarious anecdotes and Hannah even gave a 30 minute interactive set about everywhere she’s ever sweat inviting guests to share their experiences breaking down barriers and stigma around this natural human phenomenon.
In a room filled with mostly women and a few men, Hannah helped us laugh about things we normally do our best to hide, allowing us to embrace the full scope of our femininity, even the sweaty parts. The most hysterical moment from her set had to be when she remembered interviewing a boy band’s lead singer and having sweat-soaked tissue fall out of her dress, only to be returned by the concerned lead singer, cementing her visceral embarrassment. Daniela shared a funny moment from a drunken-night-out that ended in stitches, Sydnee recalled an unexpected encounter with TSA that ended with Taco Bell and Amber shared some intimate details that reminded us that embarrassing moments can lead to bonding.
Before the stand up started, guests were invited to share their sweaty moments at the Dove “Pits & Giggles” photo booth followed by complimentary cocktails and lite bites that circulated all night. The cucumber cooler and peach please cocktails were inspired by the scents in Dove’s latest collection and Dove even gave tote goodie bags filled with Dove merch and a deo spray from their latest Clinical + Care release. This unforgettable night left guests crying from laughter and ready to tackle sweat with Dove’s new Clinical + Care deodorant spray.
Last night Talenti Gelato held an intimate and exclusive Talenti tasting experience unveiling two new flavors: Chocolate Hazelnut Crunch Gelato and Paradise Passionfruit Sorbetto. Talenti transformed the venue into a ski resort and tropical travel destination with snow covered trees, Talenti branded skis, exotic flowers and palm trees . As soon as guests entered they were given Talenti ingredient passports highlighting the upcoming flavors as well as a step-by-step recipe guide on how to recreate the sweet treats featured at last nights event including the “Hot Chocolate Hazelnut Crunch Affogato” and “Paradise Passionfruit Parfait.”
The experience began with an amazing charcuterie spread featuring select cheeses, gourmet breads and tarts inspired by the new flavors like goat cheese and passionfruit. The first station featured an exclusive first taste of Chocolate Hazlenut Crunch transformed into the perfect hot chocolate pick-me-up. The next station featured a live demo by renowned baker and NYT best selling author, Sarah Fennel creating the signature Paradise Passionfruit Parfait inspired by the new flavor. Not only did guests get to enjoy lite bites, sweet treats and complimentary cocktails, they also had the opportunity to customize luggage tags by monogramming their initials and bringing a piece of Talenti with them wherever they go.
RIO’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection, A Poem & A Protest II, unfolds as the second chapter in a story first introduced last season — one that continues to explore identity through tension and contrast. This chapter leans further into duality, where softness and resistance meet glamour and grit. Plaid — now scaled up and deepened into winter palettes — anchors the collection, Pleated minis, metallic bikini tops, and draped separates are layered with bold outerwear and high-visibility accents. Reflective textiles capture flash and movement, radiating both defiance and glamour. Protection becomes both concept and construction. Quilted surfaces, sculptural puffer shoulders, trapper hats, and sharply structured coats suggest garments built for impact and endurance. Utility-driven elements — backpacks, sport closures, reinforced shapes — position the wardrobe as functional armor for the contemporary city. The message is clear: these are clothes designed not just to be worn, but to withstand.
Styling choices extend the narrative beyond aesthetics into symbolism. ACLU “ICE OUT” pins appear on select looks as understated but deliberate gestures of civic alignment. Traditional stone and obsidian necklaces rooted in Mexican cultural heritage are layered against tailored sets and polished coordinates, creating a dialogue between ancestry and modernity, refinement and urgency. The presentation itself rejected conventional runway distance. Staged at Jean’s as a live performance featuring Dominican musical artists Planta Industrial, the show blurred the lines between concert and catwalk. With Fall/Winter 2026, RIO continues to argue that identity is inherently plural — emotional and defiant, intimate and public-facing at once. A Poem & A Protest II does not frame fashion as escape, but as declaration: clothing as poetry, clothing as protest, clothing as presence.
The cultural phenomenon known as Trapstar, founded by Lee, Mike& Will have time and time again redefined how fashion is represented and marketed to the public by keeping their hands firmly on the pulse of their community. This season’s Redline collection foregrounds texture and technique. The creative team looked to the world that formed their perspective, drawing direct inspiration from UK Garage music — a genre that emerged in the 1990s from R&B and reggae and grew in popularity in 2016 — and its role in shaping London’s cultural identity. Working with instinct and immediacy, they developed a line that captures the raw, untapped energy of streetwear and the environment that fuels it. Trapstar has long mastered the art of intrigue, operating by the principle that unpredictability is power. With a disruptive, non-linear approach to fashion, the brand delivers pieces that move in step with the evolution of style while consistently feeling fresh and driven by techniques that are distinctly its own.
Across the collection, premium materials — from full-grain leather anchoring standout silhouettes to intricately embroidered appliqué — define the visual and tactile story. Signature treatments such as coated and flocked denim and refined wool constructions spotlight the natural character of each fabric, transformed and elevated through meticulous craftsmanship and technical finish. Previously unseen designs have been unearthed from the archive, spotlighting the team’s enduring creative range and long-standing design language. The collection also features select works from their late designer Nico — first honored in the prior release, Redline Nico Style — extending his legacy while pushing the broader Redline narrative into its next chapter.
The highly-anticipated Trapstar sneaker also debuted this season with three distinct designs that each deliver a new perspective for the sneaker community. Leading the drop is the Colosseum sneaker — driven by Nico’s vision and drawing from 2005 trends and 2012 culture — merging nostalgia with innovative edge. In keeping with the brand’s ethos, these silhouettes are made for the steppers, not the runners — built to command presence rather than pace. The Trapstar Redline collection reinforces the label’s legacy, cementing its status as a household name synonymous with effortless style and confidence.
Special guests included Cash Cobain, Stunna Sandy, Thickney, Albee Al, athletes Miles Sanders and Khadarel Hodge, KidSuper and many more. Right before the final walk, Cash Cobain surprised guests with a performance, perfectly capturing the spontaneity of NYC life and streetwear.

Last week Romeo Hunte unveiled his Fall/Winter 2026 Collection at the illustrious Gotham Hall. This season’s collection titled, NOIR VIGILANTE, refined the house’s codes through precision tailoring and controlled disruption. The show started off with a jazz performance, followed by the first look. The music was ominous, the setting was dark, but the looks shined in this Dark Knight inspired presentation, with Gotham being an appropriate setting. This collection sharpened familiar forms; trench coats, denim, button-down shirts and evening wear into sculptural silhouettes defined by proportion and structure. Tuxedo elements were integrated into daywear. Stone-washed denim was engineered with cinched waists and architectural shaping. Classic tailoring was recalibrated for a sharper, more deliberate expression.
Outerwear remains the foundation of the brand. Crocodile-textured technical coats, structured denim trenches and saturated trench silhouettes in green, yellow and deep burgundy underscored Hunte’s command of statement construction while maintaining functional integrity. Lace detailing introduced subtle contrast against monochromatic foundations, reinforcing a balance of strength and refinement. The house’s six-block square dot motif appeared selectively across silk prints and tailored silhouettes, asserting brand identity with restraint rather than excess. With NOIR VIGILANTE, Hunte advances his position within American luxury by focusing on disciplined construction, material elevation and silhouette control. The collection reflects a maturation of the brand: heritage informed, technically assured and architecturally precise.
Standout looks included an all black leather blazer and cape which flowed like Noir Vigilante personified on the runway. This collection was one of our favorites this season, featuring classic silhouettes reimagined, the juxtaposition between motion and structure and innovative designs like the textured black swan cocktail dress, and distressed drawstring pants in both black and gray! The denim was sexy, chic, and elegant, and we are obsessed with the denim trench coat and denim puffer vest, two classic designs taking life through new material and medium is always exciting.
