Dramatic returns are taking place in the fashion arena and we are here to witness them all. Let’s take a look at the news from the fashion circuit.
BELLA HADID JOINS BACK THE VS COLLECTIVE
After a massive fallout last year, supermodel Bella Hadid is joining back the VS Collective. The lingerie brand came under fire in 2020, when Bella, who had been Victoria’s Secret Angel, cut ties with the firm accusing the former L Brands chief marketing officer, Ed Razek, of inappropriate behavior. Razek stepped down from his position soon after this controversy.
Following the company’s rebranding as VS collective, the model is joining back the lingerie giant again. In an attempt to make the brand more inclusive and focused on body positivity, VS revamped it company image by bringing onboard influential figures such as Megan Rapinoe, Adut Akech, Valentina Sampaio, Paloma Elsesser and Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Naomi Osaka. Having disassociated herself a year ago, Bella called her decision to rejoin the lingerie brand ‘complicated’ in her interview with Marie Claire “What magnetized me to coming back was them coming to me and really proving to me that, behind the scenes, Victoria’s Secret has changed so drastically… (Joining the VS Collective) was really about taking my power back and having the power over my body be released to myself again.”
“There was a type of way that, I think, a lot of us women who used to work with Victoria’s Secret felt. And now, six of the seven [VS] board members are all female. And there are new photoshoot protocols that we have. So a lot has changed.” She concluded.
